Epoxy resin (EP), the most common thermosetting resin, forms a three-dimensional cross-linked network structure when subjected to exothermic curing. Usually, EP give low thermal conductivity due to the occurrence of phonon scattering in three-dimensional cross-linked network structure of EP. In this presentation, I will introduce the recent advances of liquid crystals as a versatile tool to enhance the thermal conductivity of EP. Indeed, liquid crystal molecules deduce the phonon scattering by the spontaneous orientation of LC molecules due to an excluded volume effect in a domain and result the highest thermal conductivity of 0.48 W/mK, which is higher than that of typical non-liquid crystalline diglycidyl ethers of bisphenol A (DGEBA) type epoxy resin (0.2 W/mK). |
