Abstract

Boron nitride (BN) micro particles modified by silane coupling agent, γ‐aminopropyl triethoxy silane (KH550), are employed to prepare BN/epoxy resin (EP) thermal conductivity composites. The thermal conductivity coefficient of the composites with 60% mass fraction of modified BN is 1.052 W/mK, five times higher than that of native EP (0.202 W/mK). The mechanical properties of the composites are optimal with 10 wt% BN. The thermal decomposition temperature, dielectric constant, and dielectric loss increase with the addition of BN. For a given BN loading, the surface modification of BN by KH550 exhibits a positive effect on the thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the BN/EP composites.
