AI Technical Summary
Existing thermally conductive silicone rubbers cannot simultaneously possess both high thermal conductivity (thermal conductivity > 5 W/m·K) and strong adhesion (shear bond strength > 2 MPa), resulting in insufficient heat dissipation performance of electronic devices and affecting device stability.

This ensures that the thermally conductive filler is uniformly dispersed. Raw materials such as cyclosiloxane, cyclic oligomeric siloxane functional monomer, end-capping agent and alkali rubber are used, combined with appropriate mixing and vulcanization treatment.
It achieves a good balance between high thermal conductivity (>6W/m·K) and strong adhesion (>2MPa), improving the heat dissipation performance and operational stability of electronic devices.

Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of silicone rubber, specifically relating to a silicone rubber with high thermal conductivity and strong adhesion, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] As electronic devices are constantly being updated and iterated, core components are trending towards miniaturization, while operating power is increasing daily. This means that if heat dissipation is not improved, components will overheat, potentially leading to equipment failure. Statistics show that for every 25°C increase in the core temperature of a device, the probability of failure increases tenfold; and the biggest factor limiting the heat dissipation performance of a device is often the interface thermal resistance.
[0003] Silicone rubber plays a crucial role in thermally conductive bonding applications in electronic packaging and thermal interface materials due to its excellent weather resistance, electrical insulation, and flexibility. Silicone rubber is a soft material made from polysiloxane as a matrix, usually compounded with inorganic fillers to form a raw rubber. It is produced through addition or condensation reactions via end groups and other modification groups, followed by vulcanization under specific temperature and humidity conditions. Adding thermally conductive fillers to silicone rubber yields thermally conductive silicone rubber, which possesses high thermal conductivity. Due to the stability of the siloxane structure, thermally conductive silicone rubber exhibits advantages such as corrosion resistance and resistance to yellowing. Therefore, using thermally conductive silicone rubber can effectively reduce interfacial thermal resistance while enhancing the operational stability of electronic devices under extreme conditions. However, currently used thermally conductive silicone rubbers suffer from limited thermally conductive bonding performance; it is difficult to simultaneously possess high thermal conductivity (thermal conductivity > 5 W / m·K) and strong bonding performance (shear bond strength > 2 MPa). Therefore, developing a thermally conductive silicone rubber with strong bonding properties is of great significance to the development of electronic devices. Summary of the Invention

[0050] Comparative Example 1 Referring to the formulation and process of Example 11, the difference lies in the following: Vinyl dimethyl silicone oil with a viscosity of 200 cP was used as the base adhesive instead of base adhesive A.

[0054] Comparative Example 5 Add 100 parts by weight of base adhesive A, 7.14 parts by weight of PHMS, 0.5 parts by weight of caster platinum (Pt) catalyst, and polymerization inhibitor MM to a mixing tank. vi 0.5 parts by weight of Al2O3 thermally conductive filler, 1500 parts by weight of Al2O3 and a certain amount of zirconium beads were mixed in a mixer at 2000 rpm for 30 seconds at room temperature to obtain a high thermal conductivity and strong adhesion silicone rubber.
[0055] Comparative Example 6 Add 100 parts by weight of base adhesive A, 7.14 parts by weight of PHMS, 0.5 parts by weight of caster platinum (Pt) catalyst, and polymerization inhibitor MM to a mixing tank. vi 0.5 parts by weight, 2500 parts by weight of Al2O3 thermally conductive filler, and a certain amount of zirconium beads were mixed in a mixer at 2000 rpm for 30 seconds at room temperature to obtain a high thermal conductivity and strong adhesion silicone rubber.
[0056] Test case The high thermal conductivity and strong adhesion silicone rubbers prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were subjected to the following performance tests: (1) Shear bond strength: The thermally conductive adhesive silicone rubber prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were used as adhesives to prepare standard overlapping test pieces (two rigid materials are aluminum sheets) according to GB / T 7124-2008. They were baked at 120℃ for 120 minutes and cooled to room temperature. The shear bond strength was tested according to GB / T 7124-2008 standard. The test results are listed in Table 1.
[0057] The above tests were repeated, with the thermally conductive adhesive silicone rubber of Examples 11, 13, 14 and 15 used as adhesives, and the rigid materials were replaced with steel sheets and epoxy resin-glass fiber composite materials, respectively. The test results are listed in Table 2.
[0058] (2) Thermal conductivity: The thermally conductive adhesive silicone rubber prepared in the above examples and comparative examples was poured into an iron (coated with polytetrafluoroethylene) mold, and hot-pressed at 170°C and 7MPa for 20 minutes. After cooling to room temperature, the thermal conductivity was tested using ASTM D7984 standard. The test results are listed in Table 1.
[0059] Table 1. Test results of thermal conductivity and shear bond strength of lap joint specimens of aluminum sheet substrates.
[0060] The results in Table 1 show that: The experimental results of Comparative Example 1 show that using conventional vinyl dimethyl silicone oil as the base adhesive, it is impossible to achieve good processing and mixing of 2000 parts by mass of thermally conductive filler, which proves that there are technical difficulties in the high-filler system. The experimental results of Comparative Examples 2-5 show that when the mass fraction of Al2O3 thermally conductive filler is less than 2000, it is impossible to guarantee a thermal conductivity of 6 W / m·K. The experimental results of Comparative Example 6 show that if the mass fraction of Al2O3 thermally conductive filler is higher than 2000, the bonding strength will decrease.
[0061] Table 2. Shear bond strength test results of lapped specimens of different materials
[0062] The results in Table 2 show that the thermally conductive adhesive silicone rubber of the present invention not only has a good bonding effect on aluminum sheets, but also has a similar bonding effect on steel sheets, and also has a certain bonding ability on epoxy resin-glass fiber composite materials.
[0063] The test results above show that the epoxy-modified silicone rubber (such as base rubber AD) prepared by this invention can be uniformly dispersed at ultra-high filler content to obtain thermally conductive adhesive silicone rubber, which has high thermal conductivity (>6W / m·K) and strong adhesion (>2MPa). Specifically, the thermally conductive adhesive silicone rubber prepared in Example 15 of this invention, while maintaining a thermal conductivity of not less than 6W / m·K, exhibits an adhesion strength of up to 2.80MPa to aluminum sheets and an adhesion strength exceeding 3MPa to steel sheets.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made by those skilled in the art within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.

In step (2), to avoid cross-linking and vulcanization caused by high temperature during mixing, other components can be mixed first, and then the cross-linking agent can be added and mixed for a few seconds.
9. The preparation method according to claim 6, characterized in that, In step (2), the conditions for the vulcanization treatment are selected from at least one of the following (a)-(c): (a) Heat at 100-150℃ for 1-2 hours; (b) Heat at 150℃-200℃ and 5-10MPa for 5-30 minutes; (c) Place at room temperature for 10-30 hours.
10. The application of the high thermal conductivity and strong adhesion silicone rubber according to any one of claims 1-5 in electronic devices.
