Publication number: 20230365852Abstract: A thermally conductive filler can exhibit high thermal conductive properties with a reduced specific gravity, a thermally-conductive composite material and a wire harness contains such a thermally conductive filler, and a method manufactures a thermally conductive filler. A thermally conductive filler contains base particles and a coating layer coating the particles, the coating layer contains a gel-like substance that is bonded to the surfaces of the base particles through chemical bonding and coats the surfaces of the base particles, and a thermally-conductive substance that is dispersed in the layer of the gel-like substance and has a higher thermal conductivity and a larger specific gravity than the base particles and the gel-like substance. Also, a thermally-conductive composite material is obtained by dispersing the thermally conductive filler in a matrix material. Furthermore, a wire harness contains the thermally-conductive composite material.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2021Publication date: November 16, 2023Applicants: AUTONETWORKS TECHNOLOGIES, LTD., SUMITOMO WIRING SYSTEMS, LTD., SUMITOMO ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES, LTD., KYUSHU UNIVERSITY, NATIONAL UNIVERSITY CORPORATIONInventors: Naoyuki OSHIUMI, Takehiro HOSOKAWA, Kazuo NAKASHIMA, Hironobu RACHI, Takashi KAWAKAMI, Yusaku MAEDA, Makoto MIZOGUCHI
