Polymer Composites with Enhanced Mechanical and Thermal Properties by Orientating Boron Nitride Flakes

Abstract

In this study, a BN/PVDF composite was prepared by hot press method. The dispersion of BN is uniform, dense and oriented in PVDF. The thermal conductivity and tensile performance of the composite are largely enhanced by the strategy. The thermal conductivity is tuned to 0.57 W/(mK), enhanced by 307 % compared with pure PVDF.
