Abstract
To improve the thermal conductivity of epoxy resin, tensile way was used to orient the molecular chain of epoxy resin with SiO2 particles filled. In this article, SiO2/Epoxy composites which had approximately one‐dimensional lattice structure were prepared. The heat generated by LED chip rapidly passed along the direction of the one‐dimensional orientation in SiO2/Epoxy composites. The results showed that the thermal conductivity of oriented composites increased with the increase of silica concentration and draw ratio (If S is the cross‐sectional areas of composites at the mold outlet, S0 is the cross‐sectional areas of composites after molding set, and draw ratio is S/S0). With the addition of 50 wt% SiO2 to the epoxy resin, the thermal conductivity of oriented SiO2/Epoxy composites with the draw ratio of 4 was 0.873 W/m K, which was 2.55 times that of unoriented SiO2/Epoxy composites. And a thermal conductivity, 5.97 times that of the epoxy resin, was obtained with 80 wt% SiO2 and the draw ratio of 4. Nevertheless, the relative permittivities of epoxy composites which had 50 wt% SiO2 with the draw ratio of 4 are stable with increasing frequency. POLYM.
