以石蜡和经硝酸处理过的碳纳米管(CNTs)为原料,苯为溶剂,采用真空渗透法制备了石蜡填充CNTs纳米胶囊复合材料,并设计了一个简易的热界面装置,对石蜡填充CNTs材料在电子设备热管理中的应用能力进行了测试。结果表明:石蜡成功填充到CNTs管内,且在CNTs管外基本没有残留的石蜡。在传热界面未涂抹二甲基硅油时,内外两侧最高温度的温差为4.7℃,而分别涂抹二甲基硅油、未经酸处理(20%)CNTs/Z.甲基硅油、酸处理后(20%)CNTs/二甲基硅油、(20%)石蜡填充CNTs/二甲基硅油时,其内外两侧最高温度的温差分别为3.8℃,3.1℃,3.1℃,2.2℃,说明将石蜡填充CNTs作为二甲基硅油中的散热填充物具有更好的散热效果,且增加了界面间的热反应速度和热稳定性。
Paraffin- filled carbon nanotube composites were successfully synthesized by a vacuum infiltration process using paraffin and treated muhiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as raw materials and benzene as regent. A simple thermal interface device was designed to test the ability of the application in electronic thermal management of carbon nanotubes filled with paraf- fin. It was found that paraffin was successfully infiltrated into the inner space of CNTs, which was proven by TEM observations. The temperature difference between outside and inside was 4.7℃ without painting simethicone on the thermal interface. When painting simethicone, CNTs/simethieone, acid treated CNTs/simethicone and paraffin confined in CNTs/simethicone on the in- terface, the temperature differences were 3.8℃ ,3. 1℃ ,3. 1℃ and 2.2℃ respectively. It indicates that the paraffin confined in CNTs material has an excellent heat transfer ability as the filler of thermal grease.
