The thermal conductivity of TDI10-GO0.5/EP was 0.624 W¡¤m£¿1¡¤K£¿1 (166% of EP and 117% of GO0.5/EP), with its TDI10-GO0.5/EP interfacial thermal resistance being reduced by a factor of 36 times GO0.5/EP. The insulating properties of the adhesive in small resistors and capacitors were improved by the inclusion of GO, with the dielectric strength of the adhesive shown to be 25.96 kV¡¤mm£¿1 and its volume resistivity found to be 1.50 ¡Á 1014 ¦¸¡¤m %K Epoxy adhesive %K thermal conductivity %K interfacial thermal resistance %K influence performances %K T-peel strength %U https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0954008318772328
