摘要
Silica nanoparticle-coated graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs) as a thermally conductive and electrically insulating filler for epoxy composites were prepared by a base-catalyzed sol-gel reaction with polyvinylpyrrolidone-modified GNPs under microwave irradiation for 5 min. The surface resistivity of the silica nanoparticle-coated GNPs increased to 1.62 x 10(4) Omega/sq from 1.16 x 10(1) Omega/sq for the raw GNPs because the silica nanoparticles provide an electrically insulating property. Moreover, the silica nanoparticle-coated GNPs/epoxy composite at a 2 wt% filler loading ratio retained an electrical insulating value of 9.68 x 10(12) Omega/sq. The silica nanoparticle-coated GNPs/epoxy composites significantly enhanced the thermal conductivity and the critical stress intensity factor of the composite at 2 wt% filler loading by 77.6% and 34.1%, respectively. On the other hand, the mechanical properties of raw GNPs/epoxy composite were decreased by the addition of GNPs. The increased properties of silica-coated GNPs/epoxy composites were explained in terms of the formation of strong interactions with filler and epoxy matrix. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
