Abstract

Metal-powder/polymer composites are an interesting class of material because their physical properties may, within limits, be selected to match a particular application. It is therefore important to be able to measure and model the physical properties of these composites. The effective diffusivity of linear-medium-density-polyethylene/aluminium composites was measured for a range of volume fractions using a simple, transient comparative method. Effective thermal conductivity data were calculated from the effective thermal diffusivity data. The effective thermal conductivity data were modelled well by the EMT equation.
