University of Houston researchers have made a discovery in thermal conductivity that overturns an existing theory that boron ...

The researchers found that high-quality boron arsenide crystals achieved thermal conductivity above 2,100 watts per meter per ...

Polymers are composed of very large molecules formed by a combination of different monomers (smaller and simpler molecules), which can be natural or synthetic. Polymers are the basis of many ...

Researchers have developed a graphene assembled film that has over 60 percent higher thermal conductivity than graphite film -- despite the fact that graphite simply consists of many layers of ...

Metal organic frameworks, or MOFs, are kind of like plastic building block toys. The pieces are simple to connect, yet they're capable of building highly sophisticated structures. Metal organic ...

Thermal interface materials (TIMs) and thermal coatings are crucial to managing the amount of heat on PCBs, and act as a ...

A graphene coating has been used to boost thermal conductivity of the common plastic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) by up to 600 times. This new result from an international team of physicists and ...
