Thermal Conductivity of Polymer-Based Composites: Fundamentals and Applications
TL;DR: In this article, the fundamental design principles of highly thermally conductive composites were discussed and the key factors influencing the thermal conductivity of polymers, such as chain structure, crystallinity, crystal form, orientation of polymer chains, and orientation of ordered domains in both thermoplastics and thermosets were addressed.

Methods for predicting the thermal conductivity of composite systems: A review
TL;DR: For a gas filled polymer, none of the theoretical models proved adequate as mentioned in this paper, and the semi-empirical approach of Harding showed considerable merit, however, it was found that the Lewis and Nielsen equation fitted the experimental data best for the range of fillers tested.

Thermally conducting aluminum nitride polymer-matrix composites
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used aluminum nitride whiskers (and/or particles) and/or silicon carbide whiskers as fillers(s) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) or epoxy as matrix.

Thermal conductivity of an organic phase change material/expanded graphite composite across the phase change temperature range and a novel thermal conductivity model
TL;DR: In this article, a simple thermal conductivity model for EG-based composites is put forward, based on only two parameters: mass fraction of EG and bulk density of the composite.

Thermal Conductivity: VIII, A Theory of Thermal Conductivity of Porous Materials
TL;DR: In this article, the effective thermal conductivity of a porous material is due to both conduction and radiation processes, and a theory is presented relating the effective conductivity to the conductivities of the solid material, to the emissivity of the surface of the pores, and to the size, shape, and distribution of the porous material.
