Abstract
Silicone rubber (SR) composites filled with carbon black (CB) and carbon fibre (CF) were prepared. The effects of a single filler as well as hybrid fillers on the thermal conductivity (a) and mechanical properties of SR composites were investigated. It was found that hybrid filler was more effective in increasing ww of the composite, and this effect was more pronounced when the weight ratio of CF:CB was 80:20. The scanning electron microscopy showed the hybrid filler formed a better filler network than single filler in the matrix. SR composites filled with hybrid fillers also possessed better mechanical properties compared with composites filled with only CF. 36 Refs.
