Synergic effect of graphene oxide and boron nitride on the mechanical properties of polyimide composite films.

ABSTRACT: The addition of two-dimensional (2D) materials into polymers can improve their mechanical properties. In particular, graphene oxide (GO) and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) are expected to be potential nanoplatelet additives for polymers. Interactions between such nanoplatelets and polymers are effective in improving the above properties. However, no report has investigated the effect of using two types of nanoplatelets that have good interaction with polymers. In this study, we fabricated polyimide (PI) films that contain two types of nanoplatelets, amine-functionalized h-BN (BN_NH₂ ) and GO. We have elucidated that the critical ratio and the content of BN_NH₂ and GO within PI govern the films' mechanical properties. When the BN_NH₂ /GO weight ratio was 52 : 1 and their content was 1 wt% in the PI film, the tensile modulus and tensile strength were increased by 155.2 MPa and 4.2 GPa compared with the pristine PI film.

Polyhedral oligosilsesquioxane-modified boron nitride enhances the mechanical properties of polyimide nanocomposites.

Project description:A novel high-strength polyimide (PI) nanocomposite film was designed and constructed by the copolymerization of epoxidized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-modified hexagonal boron nitride and polyamic acid (PAA). The composite filler (EPPOSS@Gh-BN) was composed of silane coupling agent KH550 modified hexagonal boron nitride (Gh-BN) and epoxidized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (EPPOSS), which improved not only the dispersion of the h-BN but also the effective interfacial stress transfer, leading to an enhanced mechanical strength of the resultant PI nanocomposite film of 114 MPa even with a slight EPPOSS@Gh-BN loading of 0.30 wt%, and the storage modulus was increased by more than 30% to 4 GPa compared to pure PI. Meanwhile, the PI/EPPOSS@Gh-BN nanocomposite has better heat transfer performance, higher hydrophobicity, lower dielectric properties, and higher heat stability than pure PI, and is therefore expected to provide an ideal platform for the development of highly flexible electronics in the future.

Graphene: Hexagonal Boron Nitride Composite Films with Low-Resistance for Flexible Electronics.

Project description:The structure and electric properties of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN):graphene composite with additives of the conductive polymer PEDOT:PSS and ethylene glycol were examined. The graphene and h-BN flakes synthesized in plasma with nanometer sizes were used for experiments. It was found that the addition of more than 10-3 mass% of PEDOT:PSS to the graphene suspension or h-BN:graphene composite in combination with ethylene glycol leads to a strong decrease (4-5 orders of magnitude, in our case) in the resistance of the films created from these suspensions. This is caused by an increase in the conductivity of PEDOT:PSS due to the interaction with ethylene glycol and synergetic effect on the composite properties of h-BN:graphene films. The addition of PEDOT:PSS to the h-BN:graphene composite leads to the correction of the bonds between nanoparticles and a weak change in the resistance under the tensile strain caused by the sample bending. A more pronounced flexibility of the composite films with tree components is demonstrated. The self-organization effects for graphene flakes and polar h-BN flakes lead to the formation of micrometer sized plates in drops and uniform-in-size nanoparticles in inks. The ratio of the components in the composite was found for the observed strong hysteresis and a negative differential resistance. Generally, PEDOT:PSS and ethylene glycol composite films are promising for their application as electrodes or active elements for logic and signal processing.

Synergistic Effect of Metal Oxide and Carbon Nanoparticles on the Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Polyimide Composite Films.

Project description:In this paper, we report on novel polyimide (PI) nanocomposites filled with binary mixtures of metal oxide (either TiO2 or ZrO2) nanoparticles and nanocarbon (either carbon nanofibers (CNFs) or functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTfs)). The structure and morphology of the materials obtained were comprehensively studied. An exhaustive investigation of their thermal and mechanical properties was performed. We revealed a synergistic effect of the nanoconstituents with regard to a number of functional characteristics of the PIs compared with single-filler nanocomposites, including thermal stability, stiffness (below and above glass transition temperature), yield point, and temperature of flowing. Moreover, the possibility of manipulating the properties of the materials by choosing a proper combination of the nanofillers was demonstrated. The results obtained can become a platform in the design of PI-based engineering materials with tailored characteristics capable of operating in extreme conditions.

Robust Biomimetic Nacreous Aramid Nanofiber Composite Films with Ultrahigh Thermal Conductivity by Introducing Graphene Oxide and Edge-Hydroxylated Boron Nitride Nanosheet.

Project description:Dielectric materials with excellent thermally conductive and mechanical properties can enable disruptive performance enhancement in the areas of advanced electronics and high-power devices. However, simultaneously achieving high thermal conductivity and mechanical strength for a single material remains a challenge. Herein, we report a new strategy for preparing mechanically strong and thermally conductive composite films by combining aramid nanofibers (ANFs) with graphene oxide (GO) and edge-hydroxylated boron nitride nanosheet (BNNS-OH) via a vacuum-assisted filtration and hot-pressing technique. The obtained ANF/GO/BNNS film exhibits an ultrahigh in-plane thermal conductivity of 33.4 Wm-1 K-1 at the loading of 10 wt.% GO and 50 wt.% BNNS-OH, which is 2080% higher than that of pure ANF film. The exceptional thermal conductivity results from the biomimetic nacreous "brick-and-mortar" layered structure of the composite film, in which favorable contacting and overlapping between the BNNS-OH and GO is generated, resulting in tightly packed thermal conduction networks. In addition, an outstanding tensile strength of 93.3 MPa is achieved for the composite film, owing to the special biomimetic nacreous structure as well as the strong π-π interactions and extensive hydrogen bonding between the GO and ANFs framework. Meanwhile, the obtained composite film displays excellent thermostability (Td = 555 °C, Tg > 400 °C) and electrical insulation (4.2 × 1014 Ω·cm). We believe that these findings shed some light on the design and fabrication of multifunctional materials for thermal management applications.

Mechanical properties and failure behaviors of the interface of hybrid graphene/hexagonal boron nitride sheets.

Project description:Hybrid graphene/h-BN sheet has been fabricated recently and verified to possess unusual physical properties. During the growth process, defects such as vacancies are unavoidably present at the interface between graphene and h-BN. In the present work, typical vacancy defects, which were located at the interface between graphene and h-BN, were studied by density functional theory. The interface structure, mechanical and electronic properties, and failure behavior of the hybrid graphene/h-BN sheet were investigated and compared. The results showed that the formation energy of the defective graphene/h-BN interface basically increased with increasing inflection angles. However, Young's modulus for all graphene/h-BN systems studied decreased with the increase in inflection angles. The intrinsic strength of the hybrid graphene/h-BN sheets was affected not only by the inflection angles, but also by the type of interface connection and the type of defects. The energy band structure of the hybrid interface could be tuned by applying mechanical strain to the systems. These results demonstrated that vacancies introduced significant effects on the mechanical and electronic properties of the hybrid graphene/h-BN sheet.

Aramid Nanofibers/Reduced Graphene Oxide Composite Electrodes with High Mechanical Properties.

Project description:In this work, aramid nanofibers (ANFs)/reduced graphene oxide (ANFs/RGO) film electrodes were prepared by vacuum-assisted filtration, followed by hydroiodic acid reduction. Compared with thermal reduced ANFs/RGO, these as-prepared film electrodes exhibit a combination of mechanical and electrochemical properties with a tensile strength of 184.5 MPa and a volumetric specific capacitance of 134.4 F/cm3 at a current density of 0.125 mA/cm2, respectively. In addition, the film electrodes also show a superior cycle life with 94.6% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles. This kind of free-standing film electrode may have huge potential for flexible energy-storage devices.

Dopamine-Mediated Graphene Bridging Hexagonal Boron Nitride for Large-Scale Composite Films with Enhanced Thermal Conductivity and Electrical Insulation.

Project description:Heat accumulation generated from confined space poses a threat to the service reliability and lifetime of electronic devices. To quickly remove the excess heat from the hot spot, it is highly desirable to enhance the heat dissipation in a specific direction. Herein, we report a facile route to fabricate the large-scale composite film with enhanced thermal conductivity and electrical insulation. The well-stacked composite films were constructed by the assembly of polydopamine (PDA)-modified graphene nanosheets (GNSPDA) and hexagonal boron nitride (BNPDA), as well as bacterial cellulose (BC). The introduction of the PDA layer greatly improves the interface compatibility between hybrid fillers and BC matrix, and the presence of GNSPDA-bridging significantly increases the probability of effective contact with BNPDA fillers, which is beneficial to form a denser and complete "BN-GNS-BN" heat conduction pathway and tight filler-matrix network, as supported by the Foygel model fitting and numerical simulation. The resulting BC/BNPDA/GNSPDA film shows the thermal conductivity and tensile strength of 34.9 W·m-1·K-1 and 30.9 MPa, which separately increases to 161% and 155% relative to the BC/BNPDA film. It was found that the low electrically conductive and high thermal conductive properties can be well balanced by tuning the mass ratio of GNSPDA at 5 wt%, and the electrical conductivity caused by GNSPDA can be effectively blocked by the BNPDA filler network, giving the low electrical conductivity of 1.8 × 10-10 S·cm-1. Meanwhile, the BC/BNPDA/GNSPDA composite films effectively transfer the heat and diminish the hot-spot temperature in cooling LED chip module application. Thus, the present study may pave the way to promoting the industrialization of scalable thermal management devices.

Self-Modifying Nanointerface Driving Ultrahigh Bidirectional Thermal Conductivity Boron Nitride-Based Composite Flexible Films.

Project description:While boron nitride (BN) is widely recognized as the most promising thermally conductive filler for rapidly developing high-power electronic devices due to its excellent thermal conductivity and dielectric properties, a great challenge is the poor vertical thermal conductivity when embedded in composites owing to the poor interfacial interaction causing severe phonon scattering. Here, we report a novel surface modification strategy called the "self-modified nanointerface" using BN nanocrystals (BNNCs) to efficiently link the interface between BN and the polymer matrix. Combining with ice-press assembly method, an only 25 wt% BN-embedded composite film can not only possess an in-plane thermal conductivity of 20.3 W m-1 K-1 but also, more importantly, achieve a through-plane thermal conductivity as high as 21.3 W m-1 K-1, which is more than twice the reported maximum due to the ideal phonon spectrum matching between BNNCs and BN fillers, the strong interaction between the self-modified fillers and polymer matrix, as well as ladder-structured BN skeleton. The excellent thermal conductivity has been verified by theoretical calculations and the heat dissipation of a CPU. This study provides an innovative design principle to tailor composite interfaces and opens up a new path to develop high-performance composites.

Pressure-Induced Formation and Mechanical Properties of 2D Diamond Boron Nitride.

Project description:Understanding phase transformations in 2D materials can unlock unprecedented developments in nanotechnology, since their unique properties can be dramatically modified by external fields that control the phase change. Here, experiments and simulations are used to investigate the mechanical properties of a 2D diamond boron nitride (BN) phase induced by applying local pressure on atomically thin h-BN on a SiO2 substrate, at room temperature, and without chemical functionalization. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations show a metastable local rearrangement of the h-BN atoms into diamond crystal clusters when increasing the indentation pressure. Raman spectroscopy experiments confirm the presence of a pressure-induced cubic BN phase, and its metastability upon release of pressure. Å-indentation experiments and simulations show that at pressures of 2-4 GPa, the indentation stiffness of monolayer h-BN on SiO2 is the same of bare SiO2, whereas for two- and three-layer-thick h-BN on SiO2 the stiffness increases of up to 50% compared to bare SiO2, and then it decreases when increasing the number of layers. Up to 4 GPa, the reduced strain in the layers closer to the substrate decreases the probability of the sp2-to-sp3 phase transition, explaining the lower stiffness observed in thicker h-BN.

Enhanced Thermal Conductivity of Polyimide Composites with Boron Nitride Nanosheets.

Project description:A strategy was reported to prepare boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) by a molten hydroxide assisted liquid exfoliation from hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) powder. BNNSs with an average thickness of 3?nm were obtained by a facile, low-cost, and scalable exfoliation method. Highly thermally conductive polyimide (PI) composite films with BNNSs filler were prepared by solution-casting process. The in-plane thermal conductivity of PI composite films with 7?wt% BNNSs is up to 2.95?W/mK, which increased by 1,080% compared to the neat PI. In contrast, the out-of plane thermal conductivity of the composites is 0.44?W/mK, with an increase by only 76%. The high anisotropy of thermal conductivity was verified to be due to the high alignment of the BNNSs. The PI/BNNSs composite films are attractive for the thermal management applications in the field of next-generation electronic devices.
