The invention relates to a composite PTC (
positive temperature coefficient) material for normal temperature
heat control. The material comprises the following substances of
graphite powder /
carbon black, paraffin /
alkane substance, and low-density
polyethylene. A method for preparing the composite PTC material comprises the following steps: melting and mixing the paraffin or the
alkane substance and the low-density
polyethylene under the temperature of 130-170 DEG C and a vacuum condition, and uniformly stirring the paraffin or the
alkane substance and the low-density
polyethylene; then adding the
graphite powder or the
carbon black, and uniformly stirring and mixing the
graphite powder or the
carbon black under the temperature of 130-170 DEG C and the vacuum condition to obtain a mixture; putting the mixture into a mold for
compression molding, and cooling the mixture to
room temperature to obtain the rod-type composite PTC material for the normal temperature
heat control. The
Curie temperature, at which a PTC effect can be achieved, of the material disclosed by the invention is -10 to 40 DEG C and slightly lower than the
melting point of a blended substrate; the material is higher in PTC strength, better eliminates an NTC (
negative temperature coefficient) effect and can be applied to active
temperature control of electronic appliances and other fields of normal temperature
heat control; the main defect that the
Curie temperature of the conventional PTC material is not in a normal temperature section is overcome.
