Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of graphene heat dissipation technology, and in particular to a flexible graphene heat sink. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous development of electronic technology, especially the widespread application of high-power electronic components such as integrated circuits (ICs), microprocessors (CPUs), and graphics processing units (GPUs), the heat dissipation problem of electronic devices has become increasingly prominent.
[0003] With the increase in power density, traditional heat dissipation methods (such as air cooling and liquid cooling) face many challenges, especially in space-constrained devices that require high heat dissipation efficiency and long-term stability. To effectively solve this problem, the selection of heat dissipation materials and the design of heat dissipation structures become particularly important. Graphene, as a material with extremely high thermal conductivity, has become an ideal candidate material for solving efficient heat dissipation due to its excellent thermal conductivity. However, the application of graphene is limited by its low mechanical strength and fragility, which limits the application scenarios of graphene. To address this, we propose a flexible graphene heat sink. Utility Model Content

The top end of the graphene film layer 101 is covered with micropores 201. Through the design of the composite structure, while ensuring efficient heat dissipation, the flexibility, electrical insulation, structural stability, and durability of the material are also taken into account. First, the graphene film layer 101 has ultra-high thermal conductivity, which can quickly transfer the heat generated by electronic components.

[0019] The graphene film layer 101 is made of single-layer graphene with a thickness of 0.1 micrometers to 10 micrometers. Graphene is a material with extremely high thermal conductivity, reaching 5000 W / m·K, which is much higher than that of metal materials. Single-layer graphene can achieve excellent thermal conductivity, which helps to quickly transfer the heat generated inside the device to the surface of the heat sink. At the same time, the micropores 201 increase the contact area of the graphene film layer 101, making the heat dissipation effect of the graphene film layer 101 better.
[0020] The thermal conductivity enhancement layer 102 is made of nano-carbon plate and has a thickness of 0.1 mm to 1 mm. At the nanoscale, the carbon plate has excellent heat dissipation effect, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the heat sink. The thermal conductivity enhancement layer 102 enhances the heat transfer capability of the heat sink, especially in high-power electronic devices that require efficient heat dissipation, and can effectively reduce the operating temperature.
[0021] The flexible substrate 103 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and has a thickness of 5-50 micrometers. PTFE is a polymer material with excellent flexibility, good chemical stability, high temperature resistance and low friction. The flexible substrate 103 provides the necessary flexibility for the heat sink, enabling it to adapt to various bending and deformation requirements, and is especially suitable for heat dissipation of curved electronic devices such as wearable devices.
[0022] The electrical insulation layer 104 is made of polyamide and has a thickness of 1 micrometer to 20 micrometers. Polyamide has certain electrical insulation properties and can withstand high temperature environments. The electrical insulation layer 104 effectively isolates the electrical contact between the heat sink and electronic components, ensuring the safe use of the heat sink in high voltage and complex circuit environments and avoiding electrical short circuits.
[0023] The adhesive layer 105 is made of epoxy resin and has a thickness of 0.05 mm to 1 mm. The adhesive layer 105 ensures the stability and integrity of the multi-layer structure, prevents the materials of each layer from delaminating under high temperature or mechanical stress, and maintains the durability and effective heat dissipation capacity of the heat sink.
[0024] The heat diffusion layer 106 is made of thermally conductive ceramic and has a thickness of 0.5 mm to 5 mm. By optimizing the heat diffusion performance of the heat sink, the heat diffusion layer 106 avoids local overheating, enabling the entire heat sink to effectively disperse the heat from electronic components and improve the heat dissipation effect.
[0025] The protective layer 107 is made of fluoride and has a thickness of 0.01 mm to 0.1 mm. The fluoride coating has excellent chemical stability, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, making it particularly suitable for protection in high temperature and humid environments. The protective layer 107 can effectively prevent the surface of the heat sink from failing due to oxidation, corrosion and wear during long-term use, extend the service life of the heat sink and ensure that it maintains high-efficiency heat dissipation performance for a long time.
