...n the polymer matrix is necessary – the more contact there is between the filler particles, the better the heat can be conducted within the compound (Fig.2). The resulting thermal conductivity of the materials, which Lati markets under the name Laticonther, is more than 2W/m·K, and is therefore about ten times higher than that of unfilled plastics. For the LED application described here, a grade with 85wt.-% ceramic powder is used. Since the high ceramic content makes the material very brittle, ...

...ial can be used as a substitute for metal in applications where high surface quality is required, e.g. in power tool housings, sporting goods, furniture as well as in applications involving appearance surfaces in automobiles. With the Laticonther compounds, high filler levels of up to 85 wt. % of ceramic fillers provide high thermal conductivity, so that ribbed heat sinks for LED lighting products can be made from plastic, for instance. Experience in the field of electrically conductive compound...
