A hybrid material made from ultrathin graphite foam (UGF) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) could be an ideal filler for making composite phase change materials (PCMs) that conduct heat better, according to new experiments by researchers in the US, Italy and the Republic of Korea. The composites have a significantly higher thermal conductivity than those without these fillers, which means they could find use in a variety of practical applications including thermal management – for example, cooling micro- and nanoelectronic devices………..
