    Abstract:
    As highly integrated electronic devices and automotive parts are becoming used in high-power and load-bearing systems, thermal conductivity and mechanical damping properties have become critical factors. In this study, we applied two different fillers of aluminium nitride (AlN) and boron nitride (BN), having polygonal and platelet shapes, respectively, into ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) rubber to ensure improved thermo-mechanical properties of EPDM composites. These two different shapes are considered advantageous in providing effective pathways of phonon transfer as well as facilitating sliding movement of packed particles. When the volume ratio of AlN : BN was 1 : 1, the thermal conductivity of the hybrid-filler system (EPDM/AlN/BN) increased in comparison to that of the single-filler system (EPDM/AlN) of 3.03 to 4.76 W m-1 K-1. The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and thermal distortion parameter (TDP) substantially decreased from 59.3 ppm °C-1 and 17.5 m K-1 of EPDM/AlN, to 39.7 ppm °C-1 and 8.4 m K-1 of EPDM/AlN/BN, representing reductions of 33 and 52%, respectively. Moreover, the damping coefficient of EPDM/AlN/BN was greatly increased to 0.5 of at 50 °C, compared to 0.03 of neat EPDM. These excellent performances likely stem from the effective packing of AlN/BN hybrid fillers, which could induce facile energy transfer and effective energy dissipation by the sliding movement of the adjacent hybrid fillers in the EPDM matrix.
