Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of nanocomposites for high-temperature electronic device manufacturing, and specifically provides a high-temperature conductive solution for graphene quantum dots (GQDs) interface bridging and ZrO2 / Y2O3 dual-phase stable structure synergistic effect, which realizes ±1% heating uniformity and more than 5000 hours of life in an 800-1200℃ environment. BACKGROUND
[0002] The existing high-temperature conductive graphene solution has the following core defects in technology and preparation process:
[0003] 1. Insufficient high-temperature oxidation and structural stability Graphene is prone to oxidation with oxygen in a high-temperature environment, generating graphene oxide (GO), which significantly reduces the conductivity. During the oxidation process, the decomposition of oxygen-containing functional groups (such as epoxy and carboxyl groups) releases gases such as CO, CO2, and H2O, causing interlayer expansion of graphene, forming bubbles or airbags. Even if the structure is partially restored through high-temperature treatment (such as carbonization and graphitization), the residual microfolds will still intensify phonon scattering, reducing thermal and electrical conductivity. In addition, the thermal decomposition or oxidation of the substrate material (such as polymers) at high temperatures will also damage the overall structural stability.
[0004] 2. Dispersion and interface bonding problems The van der Waals force and π-π stacking between graphene layers cause them to easily agglomerate in solution, especially after the solvent evaporates at high temperatures, forming a conductive path that is interrupted. Traditional dispersants (such as surfactants) may decompose at high temperatures, failing to maintain a stable dispersion state. In addition, the thermal expansion coefficients of the graphene coating and the substrate (such as metal and ceramic) do not match, and the interface stress accumulates at high temperatures, causing the coating to crack or fall off. For example, the interlayer pressure during carbonization can reach 40MPa, causing the structure of the film to be destroyed.
[0005] 3. Thermal stability of the carrier material limits The commonly used polymer carrier (such as epoxy resin) is prone to decomposition at high temperatures, affecting the durability of the conductive network. Inorganic binders (such as aluminum dihydrogen phosphate) are resistant to high temperatures (500-1000℃), but may introduce insulating phases, reducing the overall electrical conductivity. In addition, the thermal decomposition products of the carrier material may contaminate the graphene surface, further degrading the performance. SUMMARY
