Abstract:In this study the mechanical and adhesive properties of Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWNTs) filled polyimide composite films (MWNT-PI) are investigated to determine their usefulness as thermo-conductive packaging materials in microelectronics. MWNTs were mixed in low wt% during synthesis at poly(amic acid) (PAA) stage. MWNT-PI films were characterized using DMTA and tensile testing to determine viscoelastic behavior and mechanical properties. Adhesive strength and adhesive energy of bonded samples were deter… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
