“…Epoxy/silica composites are well-known materials in the field of insulation systems for heavy electric equipment, because they have good mechanical and thermal properties as well as excellent electrical properties [2][3][4]. In the last two decades, many researchers have developed new epoxy-based composites for much higher performance with lower cost for electric applications.…”

The effects of particle size on the mechanical and electrical properties of epoxy/spherical silica composites were studied. The silica particle sizes were varied from 5 to 30 μm and the filler content was fixed to 60 wt%. Tensile and flexural tests were carried out and the interfacial morphology was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The electrical insulation breakdown strength was estimated using sphere-sphere electrodes with different insulation thicknesses of 1, 2 and 3 mm. The tensile strength and flexural strength increased with decreasing particle size, while electrical insulation breakdown strength increased with increasing particle size.

“…Blending of polymer with inorganic fillers is an effective and convenient way to enhance the polymer thermal conductivity while maintaining the electrical insulation, such as polymer composites with boron nitride (BN) [6,7], aluminum nitride (AlN) [2,3], silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ) [8,9], alumina [10], silicon carbride (SiC) [11] and silica (SiO 2 ) etc. [12] have been investigated. In the inorganic filler/polymer composites, the thermal conductivity increases with the filler content.…”

Abstract. The influences of filler size and content on the properties (thermal conductivity, impact strength and tensile strength) of Al 2 O 3 /high density polyethylene (HDPE) composites are studied. Thermal conductivity and tensile strength of the composites increase with the decrease of particle size. The dependence of impact strength on the particle size is more complicated. The SEM micrographs of the fracture surface show that Al 2 O 3 with small particle size is generally more efficient for the enhancement of the impact strength, while the 100 nm particles prone to aggregation due to their high surface energy deteriorate the impact strength. Composite filled with Al 2 O 3 of 0.5 µm at content of 25 vol% show the best synthetic properties. It is suggested that the addition of nano-Al 2 O 3 to HDPE would lead to good performance once suitably dispersed.

“…8,12 There are many references in the plentiful literature concerning adding thermally conductive fillers to plastics to produce a more heat conductive composites. For example, many composite plastics have been investigated including different kinds of fillers such as boron nitride, 17 aluminum nitride, 7,15,18 silicone nitride, 7,19 alumina (Al 2 O 3 ), 20 silicon carbide (SiC), 21 silica, 22 and diamond 23 ; and various polymer matrix such as high density polyethylene, linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), ABS, polyamide, polypropylene, etc.…”

A thermally conductive linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) composite with silicon carbide (SiC) as filler was prepared in a heat press molding. The SiC particles distributions were found to be rather uniform in matrix at both low and high filler content due to a powder mixing process employed. Differential scanning calorimeter results indicated that the SiC filler decreases the degree of crystallinity of LLDPE, and has no obvious influence on the melting temperature of LLDPE. Experimental results demonstrated that the LLDPE composites displays a high thermal conductivity of 1.48 Wm À1 K À1 and improved thermal stability at 55 wt % SiC content as compared to pure LLDPE. The surface treatment of SiC particles has a beneficial effect on improving the thermal conductivity. The dielectric constant and loss increased with SiC content, however, they still remained at relatively low levels (<10 2 Hz); whereas, the composites showed poorer mechanical properties as compared to pure LLDPE. In addition, combined use of small amount of alumina short fiber and SiC gave rise to improved overall properties of LLDPE composites.
