The effect of Aluminum Oxide, Iron Oxide on the thermal conductivity of (Epoxy-Aluminum Oxide, Epoxy-Iron Oxide) Composites
Abstract
Thermal conductivity for epoxy composites filled with Al2O3 and Fe2O3 are calculated, it found that increasing the weight ratio of Al2O3 and Fe2O3 lead to increase in the values of thermal conductivity, but the epoxy composite filled with Fe2O3, have values of thermal conductivity less than for epoxy composite filled with Al2O3, for the same weight ratio. Also thermal conductivity calculated for epoxy composites by contact to every two specimens (like sandwich) content same weight ratio of alumina-oxide and ferrite-oxide, its found that the value of thermal conductivity lays between the values of epoxy filled Al2O3 and of epoxy filled Fe2O3
