The effect of temperature on the thermal conductivity of hybrid polymer blends

Abstract

In this work polymer blends and particles hybrid composite materials were prepared containing one matrix of polymer blend (Epoxy + High-density polyethylene ) reinforced by different reinforcing particles (Carbon black powder + Magnesium oxide) with one value of volume fraction (25%) .The Polymer blends and hybrid composite materials prepared are:•Blend = EP + HDPE •Blend + CB•Blend + MgO•Blend + CB + MgOAll samples related to thermal test were prepared by hand lay up process.The results show that thermal conductivity values increase with an increase of temperature for all samples.
