  • Patent number: 8658052
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for making a highly thermally conductive composite. At first, paraffin wax is subjected to apparent modification. Expandable graphite is oxidized and organically modified. The modified paraffin wax is melted and mixed with the modified expandable graphite so that the modified expandable graphite is evenly distributed in the modified paraffin wax. With the expandable graphite, which exhibits an excellent heat transfer coefficient, the thermal conductivity of the paraffin wax is improved. The melting and solidifying rates of the paraffin wax are improved.

  • Publication number: 20130144026
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method form making a thermo-stable and transparent resin. In the method, at first, polyborosiloxane is syhthesized by hydrolyzing and condensing a boron-containing compound, used as a precursor, and a silane compound. Then, epoxy group-containing polyborosiloxane is synthesized by grafting an epoxy group to the polyborosiloxane. Finally, an epoxy/PGB composite is synthesized by reacting the epoxy group-containing polyborosiloxane with epoxy for consolidation, thus providing a homogenous, stable, net-shaped composite.

  • Publication number: 20110060077
    Abstract: In this patent, fibers have been successfully extracted from various natural occurring materials using a series of chemical, biological and mechanical methods. Moreover, these fibers can be conjugated onto certain polymer chains via coupling agent and chemical modification. Consequently, the thermal stability and mechanical properties of the polymers can be dramatically elevated with the incorporation of these fibers. The intended polymers include conventional plastics (epoxy resins, polyesters and polyolefins etc.), rubbers (natural rubbers and thermoplastic rubbers etc.) and biodegradable polymers. Apart from the enhancement of mechanical properties and thermal stability, the incorporation of natural fibers can reduce the production cost of the materials and meet the demand of environmental protection.
