  • THERMALLY CONDUCTIVE FLAME RETARDANT POLYMER COMPOSITIONS AND USES THEREOF
    Publication number: 20140171575
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a thermally conductive composition, comprising 20 to 80 wt % of a thermoplastic or thermosetting polymer; 10 to 70 wt % of a metal hydroxide; and a polymeric char forming agent, where the polymeric char forming agent provides the thermally conductive composition with a flame retardancy of V-0 at a thickness of 1.5 millimeters or less when tested as per a UL-94 testing protocol; where the weight percents are based on a total weight of the thermally conductive composition.

  • Positive temperature coefficient materials with reduced negative temperature coefficient effect
    Patent number: 8496854
    Abstract: Positive temperature coefficient (PTC) compositions having a reduced negative temperature coefficient effect (NTC) are provided that are achieved without crosslinking the thermoplastic base material. The PTC compositions include a thermoplastic base resin, an electrically conductive filler and particles of a polymeric additive dispersed in the PTC composition.
