TL;DR: The relationship between the thermal conductivity of polymer composites and the realistic size of GNP fillers within the polymer composite (measured using three-dimensional (3D) non-destructive micro X-ray CT analysis) is revealed while minimizing the effects of the physical parameters other than size.

TL;DR: In this article, anisotropic development of thermal conductivity in polymer composites was evaluated by measuring the isotropic, in-plane and through-plane thermal conductivities of composites containing length-adjusted short and long multi-walled CNTs (MWCNTs).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that the thermal conductivity of polymer composites was synergistically improved by the simultaneous incorporation of graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) fillers into the polycarbonate matrix.

TL;DR: It can be confirmed by looking at the statistical results of the filler-to-filler distance obtained from the digital processing of the fracture surface images that the various oxygenated functional groups of graphene oxide can help improve the dispersion of the filling and that the introduction of large phenyl groups to the graphene basal plane has a positive effect on the disp immersion.

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal conductivity of polymer composites containing nanofillers such as GNP (graphene nanoplatelet) and carbon black (CB) was investigated using experimental and theoretical approaches.
