Some fillers make plastics electrically and thermally conductive, and others add thermal conductivity without electrical conductivity. The thermal conductivity of conductive plastics is not as high as that of metal, but conductive plastics can be just as effective as metals in thermal management, transferring heat by conduction (which depends on the material) and convection (which depends on the design of the system and the flow of air or liquid around the polymer part). These oxides have high thermal and electrical conductivity (although hematite can conduct more heat), can block radiation, and can dampen sound.

Conductive, Signal & Radiation Shielding Formulations Therma-Tech™ Thermally Conductive Formulations The material added immediate benefits including: complex designs at lower costs than metal; lighter weight; inherent corrosion resistance; adaptability for ingress protection up to IP67; high heat resistance; compliance with UL94 V-0 flammability standards; and options for either electrically conductive or insulating properties.

Electrical Conductivity for Silicone Thermally Conductive Dispersions: Silcosperse™ TC Enhanced thermal conductivity for silicone materials.

Overheating – Oftentimes, designers choose aluminum for its excellent thermal conductivity properties. The very high conductivity of metals simply may be more than is needed to prevent damage from heat build-up. Weight, weight, weight – Engineered polymers can be formulated to provide excellent thermal management, static dissipation and EMI/RFI shielding performance for your ADAS housing at a lighter weight than aluminum.
