摘要: 制备兼具优异耐高温性能和导热性能的聚合物基复合材料对于电子元器件的封装保护、高效散热和稳定成型至关重要。本文通过混合溶剂分散法(MSD)制备了六方氮化硼(BN)/半芳香聚酰胺12T (PA12T)复合材料,并对复合材料的微观结构、导热、耐高温、介电和力学性能进行了表征。结果表明:混合溶剂分散法可以有效实现BN和PA12T粉末的均匀悬浮,并可协同真空辅助自组装法与真空热压法构筑具有均一分散和取向结构的复合材料。研究表明,当BN/PA12T复合材料中的BN含量为40wt%时,混合溶剂分散法制备的样品的平面导热率可以达到2.73 W/(m·K),是机械混合法(MM)制备的样品(1.59 W/(m·K))的1.72倍,同时其具有优异的力学性能、低介电常数(3.6)、介电损耗(0.016)和显著的耐高温性能(维卡软化点超过250℃且初始分解温度可达446℃)。综上所述,混合溶剂分散法制备的BN/PA12T复合材料在电子封装及热管理领域中具有广阔的应用前景。Abstract: Fabrication of the polymer-based composites with excellent high temperature resistance and thermal conductivity is very important for the packaging protection, efficient heat dissipation and processing of electronic components. In this work, high temperature resistant and thermally conductive hexagonal boron nitride (BN)/semi-aromatic polyamide 12T (PA12T) composites with uniform dispersion and orientation filler structure were prepared by mixed solvent dispersion (MSD) method, and the microstructure, thermal conductivity, high-temperature resistance, dielectric and mechanical properties of the composites were systematically characterized. The results show that the BN powder and PA12T powder can be suspended uniformly in the mixed solvent. Next, combining the vacuum-assisted self-assembly technique and vacuum hot compression method, the composites with uniformly dispersed and oriented BN structure are fabricated successfully. When the content of BN is 40wt% in BN/PA12T composite, the in-plane thermal conductivity of the composite prepared by the MSD method is 2.73 W/(m·K), which is 1.72 times that of the composite (1.59 W/(m·K)) prepared by the mechanical mixing (MM) method. Furthermore, the composite prepared by the MSD method also possesses excellent mechanical properties, low dielectric permittivity of 3.6 and dielectric loss of 0.016, outstanding high-temperature resistance with the initial decomposition temperature of 446℃ and Vicat softening temperature of more than 250℃. Therefore, the BN/PA12T composite prepared by the MSD method will have a wide range of applications in the fields of electronic packaging and thermal management.
