Thermally and electrically enhanced elastomeric conductive materials

摘要

An elastomeric material includes an elastomeric matrix having one or more outer surfaces and a set of electrically conductive pathways disposed through the elastomeric matrix. The elastomeric material also includes a thermally-conductive and electrically-insulative material, disposed through the elastomeric matrix, which improves the formation of the electrically conductive pathways.

1. A sheet of elastomeric material, comprising:
an elastomeric matrix having two outer surfaces separated by a sheet thickness; a set of substantially parallel electrically conductive pathways comprising magnetically aligned electrically conductive particles disposed through the elastomeric matrix; and at least 1% by volume electrically-insulative particles with sizes between about 1% and 20% of the sheet thickness disposed within the elastomeric matrix.
