COMPOSITE BONDING TOOL WITH HIGH THERMALCONDUCTIVITY AND LOW COEFFICIENT OF THERMAL EXPANSION

摘要

A composite bonding tool may comprise a mold surface made from a composite material including a fibrous material and a matrix disposed about the fibrous material. The resin may be cured and have a thermal conductivity greater than about 10 watts per meter Kelvin. The fibrous material may be further metal coated or plated to increase thermal conductivity. Carbon nanomaterials may be added to the matrix or onto the surface of the fibrous material in order to further enhance thermal conductivity. The mold surface has a relatively high thermal conductivity and relatively low coefficient of thermal expansion, and a relatively low mass.
