Dielectric and thermal properties of GFs/PTFE composites with hybrid fillers of Al_2O_3 and hBN for microwave substrate applications

摘要

The alumina/hexagonal boron nitride/glass fibers cloth/Polytetrafluo-roethylene (Al_2O_3-hBN/GFs/PTFE) composites were prepared by blending-impregnation followed by hot compression method, and the dielectric, thermal properties of the composites with various hBN fillers content (0-20 wt.%) were investigated. The results show that the thermal conductivity of the composites increase significantly, while the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) decrease gradually, with the hBN content increasing. Composite substrates with 20 wt.% hBN exhibited high thermal conductivity as 1.05 W m~(-1) K~(-1), which is 5.3 times that of pure PTFE. Such compositions may be a promising material in high thermal conductivity copper clad laminate.
