A comprehensive study on thermal/electrical conduction, mechanical and curing properties of silicone rubber nanocomposites contained exfoliated-surface modified h-BNs by Atefe Farahani, Masoud Jamshidi, Masumeh Foroutan

“…This happening improved filler-polymer adhesion and made the mechanical property of the modified nanocomposite outstanding with higher storage modulus, tensile strength and Tg compared to the SR (i.e. 127%, 26% and 10 °C, respectively). The contact angle increased from 92.8o for SR to 107.6 for modified nanocomposite which is mostly desired in microelectronic applications.…”
