Thermal conductivity in composite solid-state materials: A comparative study

Abstract

This study investigates the thermal conductivity of various composite solid-state materials to determine their suitability for high-performance applications. The research focuses on comparing the thermal properties of different composites, including metal-matrix composites, ceramic-matrix composites, and polymer-matrix composites. Advanced analytical techniques, including laser flash analysis (LFA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), were employed to measure thermal conductivity and related properties. The results provide insight into the influence of material composition, microstructure, and processing conditions on thermal performance, with a particular focus on applications in thermal management systems.
