Thermal and Electrical Conductivity of Copper-Fluoroplast Composites Produced by Explosive Pressing

Resumo

In this paper, we carried out comparative experimental studies of the effect of static and explosive pressing on the thermal and electrical conductivity of composite materials based on Fluoroplast-4 containing 10 to 40 vol % of copper powder. Explosive pressing was found to promote an increase in the thermal and electrical conductivity of composite materials. This is likely attributed to the increased adhesion between copper and Fluoroplast-4.
