  • 2-dimensional thermal conductive materials and their use
    Patent number: 10568544
    Abstract: The development and manufacture of thermal interface materials including, among other forms, greases, pastes, gels, adhesives, pads, sheets, solders and phase change materials, with good through-plane thermal conductivity for thermal interface applications. The good through-plane thermal conductivity is achieved through the formation of a conductive network by the use of thermal conductive material-coated fillers, combinations of thermal conductive material-coated fillers and uncoated fillers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 5, 2016
    Date of Patent: February 25, 2020
    Assignee: XG Sciences, Inc.
    Inventors: Hiroyuki Fukushima, Thomas Ritch, Jessica Russell, Liya Wang
