Problems solved by technology

However, the phase-change thermal diodes currently reported are all packaged with phase-change materials in plastic tubes, and the assembled thermal diodes are rigid (Mater.Horiz., 2015, 2, 125-129; Adv.Energy Mater.2018, 8, 1702692), the flexibility cannot be obtained, which limits its wide application

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible thermal diode and a preparation method and application thereof. The flexible thermal diode comprises a first phase-change composite film and a second phase-change composite film which have different thermal conductivity temperature coefficients, the first phase-change composite film and the second phase-change composite film are in thermal contact with each other, and the first phase-change composite film and the second phase-change composite film are stable in form and have flexibility before and after phase change. The heat conductivity of the first phase-change composite film and the heat conductivity of the second phase-change composite film are in opposite trends along with temperature changes, and the phase-change temperature difference value of the first phase-change composite film and the second phase-change composite film is smaller than 10 DEG C; the first phase change composite film and the second phase change composite film are opposite in surface wettability and incompatible in interface. Compared with a traditional thermal diode, the flexible thermal diode provided by the invention can be attached to a curved surface or an irregular surface needing thermal management in a conformal manner, the application field of a phase change film is expanded, and the practicability of the thermal diode is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of thermal management materials, and in particular relates to a flexible thermal diode, a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Similar to electronic diodes, thermal diodes also contain two poles, the temperature input and the temperature output. When one pole is connected to the hot end and the other pole is connected to the cold end, the heat flow is J f , after the positions of the cold and hot ends are exchanged, the heat flow is J r , if J f with J r The values ​​are not equal, breaking the Fourier's law, this phenomenon is called thermal rectification, and this component is called thermal diode (see patent CN111895827A). Although the current thermal management materials can have both heat conduction and energy storage functions (CN111439001A), the thermal rectification function of thermal diodes can better control heat transfer, and has broad application prospect...
