Enhanced thermal conductivity and insulation properties of mica tape with BN coating via electrostatic spraying technology

Abstract

The bottleneck problem of the development of high‐voltage motors to a larger capacity can be solved if the thermal conductivity is improved without sacrificing the insulation characteristics of the main insulation material. In this paper, a spraying technology based on electrospinning is proposed that can evenly spray boron nitride (BN) with high thermal conductivity onto the surface of mica tape. With the increase in BN content, the insulation and thermal conductivity of mica tape are optimized to varying degrees. When the BN content reaches 2.25 wt%, the in‐plane conductivity increases from 1.6 to 2.7 w/(m K), while the out‐of‐plane conductivity increases from 0.17 to 0.26 w/(m K). Additionally, the direct‐current (DC) breakdown strength has increased from 90.6 to 96.9 kV/mm and the dielectric constant and dielectric loss are almost unchanged. Finally, through simulation verification, if the modified mica tape is applied to the main insulation of a synchronous motor, the operating temperature of the motor insulation will be reduced from 73.5 to 66.1°C. This study provides a new research idea for the preparation of high thermal conductivity insulating materials.

Face Mask Integrated with Flexible and Wearable Manganite Oxide Respiration Sensor

“…We found that the temperature variation at the left and right edges of the rectangular LSMO is higher, which might be due to the difference in thermal conductivity. According to previous reports [62][63][64], the thermal conductivity of LSMO (1-3 W/m⋅K) and Mica (~ 0.5 W/m⋅K) is substantially higher than that of air (~ 0.026 W/m⋅K), resulting in difficulty for heat dissipation at the edges of LSMO than its middle.…”

“…Electronic packaging materials, as an important part of chip protection, play a major role in protecting core components 1 . However, with the dramatically demand for mobile and portable devices as well as electronic device power consumption, thermal conductivity and insulation performance have become another major attribute of electronic packaging materials 2 . This has also become the focus of addressing such thermal interface materials (TIMs) at present.…”

Effect of Hydrogen Annealing on Performances of BN-Based RRAM

“…In detail, BN has a high thermal conductivity, which makes it an excellent candidate for use in heat dissipation applications, such as thermal management of electronic devices, and for use as a substrate for high-power electronic devices [ 9 , 10 ]. Secondly, BN is an excellent insulator, which makes it ideal for use in high-voltage applications, such as power distribution systems [ 11 ]. Thirdly, BN has a high strength-to-weight ratio and excellent mechanical stability [ 12 ], which makes it a suitable material for use in lightweight structures for aerospace and drone applications.…”
