Amine-terminated butadiene-acrylonitrile (ATBN) was covalently grafted on a hexagonal boron nitride (BN) surface to enhance the interface affinity between BN and a carboxylated styrene-butadiene rubber (XSBR) matrix for preparing thermal interface materials with robust thermo-physical properties. The mechanical properties, thermal stability, thermal conductivity, thermo-physical properties, and interfacial filler–matrix network of the prepared XSBR/ABN nanocomposites were studied. The XSBR/ABN nanocomposites exhibited better mechanical and thermo-physical behavior compared to the XSBR/BN nanocomposites over the entire range of filler concentration, representing an enhanced interfacial interaction owing to functionalization. Moreover, the XSBR/ABN nanocomposites exhibited superior thermal conductivity as compared to the XSBR/BN nanocomposites. |
