title = "Improving the thermal conductivity of epoxy hybrid nanocomposites for aerospace applications",
abstract = "The poor thermal conductivity of polymer based composites has long been a deterrent to their increased use in high end aerospace applications. In this study, the thermal conductivity of Epoxy-Carbon fiber composites is improved dramatically by a novel method of incorporating carbon nanoparticles into the system. A comprehensive study of the preparation and properties of the highly thermally conductive Epoxy-Carbon fiber-Carbon nanofiber composites is presented.",
