Description

Boron nitride filled heat conduction interface material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of heat-conducting interface materials, in particular to a boron nitride filled heat-conducting interface material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
In the field of electronic information industry, heat is inevitably generated in the operation process of electronic equipment, and the reliability is reduced by 10 percent when the temperature of an electronic component is increased by 2 ℃ every time; the lifetime at 50 ℃ was only 1/6 at 25 ℃. With the rapid development of electronic technology, technological progress and market demand promote the development of electronic components towards miniaturization, precision, high performance and intellectualization, the integration degree and power density of electronic components are continuously improved, and the dissipation power density and heat productivity of electronic components are increasingly larger. Therefore, it is becoming more and more important to solve the heat dissipation problem, and the requirements for the thermal management technology are also more stringent.
Boron Nitride (BN) comprises six crystal forms, and common BN are cubic boron nitride (c-BN) and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). Cubic boron nitride is similar to diamond and is commonly used in the manufacture of cutting tools. The hexagonal boron nitride has a graphite-like layered structure and excellent mechanical properties, and the in-plane mechanical strength of the hexagonal boron nitride can reach 500N/m. The hexagonal boron nitride also has excellent high temperature resistance, and the oxidation resistance temperature in air is 900 ℃, and can reach 2000 ℃ under the vacuum condition. Meanwhile, the hexagonal boron nitride also has ultrahigh heat conductivity and excellent insulating property. The thermal conductivity of hexagonal boron nitride measured at 300k with high purity single crystal is 730W/m.k, the thermal conductivity of cubic boron nitride is more than 1000W/m.k, while the thermal conductivity of the most common sphere-like diamond filler in the market at present is only 30W/m.k. The boron nitride can effectively improve the thermal conductivity of the polymer matrix and simultaneously keep the electrical insulation of the material, so the boron nitride is the first choice for preparing the filling type high-thermal-conductivity and insulating composite material. The high-thermal-conductivity interface material prepared by filling the silicon gel substrate with the boron nitride has a very low dielectric constant, ensures that the delay time in signal transmission is short enough, but does not block the signal transmission, thereby ensuring the smooth proceeding of signal receiving and transmission, and therefore, the high-thermal-conductivity interface material is also widely applied to network communication equipment at first. The most mature low dielectric thermal conductive material is TFLEX 700HD developed by Laerd, having a dielectric constant of 5.0 and a thermal conductivity of 5W/mk.
However, boron nitride has good chemical stability, is not easy to form chemical bonds, and is easy to agglomerate, so that boron nitride has poor affinity with a matrix material, and is difficult to be uniformly mixed in a filling process. In addition to poor dispersibility, with the increase of the filling amount of boron nitride, the viscosity of the matrix material is high, so that the matrix material cannot fully wet all boron nitride powder, and powder falling and dry cracking phenomena may occur in the processing process. Moreover, during the assembly process, the chip may be crushed due to the high hardness of the thermal interface material, and the product itself may be crushed due to the low elongation. In order to improve the flexibility of products, a large amount of micromolecular silicone oil is adopted as a plasticizer in the conventional heat-conducting interface material, but the micromolecular silicone oil is very easy to volatilize and separate out at high temperature, so that the aging resistance of the products is rapidly reduced, and after long-time high-temperature work, the products are easy to crack and pulverize, so that the heat-conducting function is reduced and even loses efficacy. In addition, the existing production process is difficult to avoid wrapping air when mixing boron nitride and a matrix material, so that a large number of cavities and depressions appear in a finished product, and the yield is greatly influenced.

On the premise of excessive heat dissipation power, the temperature difference between the chip and the heat dissipation sheet on the chip in a working state is tested by replacing the heat conduction interface material (temperature difference delta T is the chip temperature T)1-temperature t of the heat sink2). Firstly, the assembly test of the comparative example 1 is used, when the temperature of the chip and the temperature of the radiating fin are basically stable after working for a certain time, the temperature of the chip and the temperature of the radiating fin are recorded, and the temperature difference delta T is calculated0. Then respectively using the installation machines of the embodiments 1 to 3 to test, recording the temperature of the chip and the temperature of the radiating fin when the temperature of the chip and the radiating fin are basically stable after working for a certain time, and respectively calculating the temperature difference delta T1、△T2、△T3.

As can be seen from the data in table 1, the heat-conducting interface material provided by the present application can achieve a heat dissipation performance improvement rate of over 30%.
Referring to fig. 3, in an embodiment of the present application, there is further provided a method for preparing a thermal interface material, including:
s110, uniformly mixing modified boron nitride powder 1, first spherical diamond powder 2, second spherical diamond powder 3 and third spherical diamond powder 4 to obtain boron nitride compound powder;

s150, injecting the silicon resin matrix into the gap of the filler framework through vacuum impregnation to obtain the heat-conducting interface material.
It should be noted that, compared with the conventional scheme in which boron nitride powder is randomly mixed in a polymer matrix, the filler skeleton is designed into the honeycomb network structure, so that heat dissipation in a 3D space is facilitated more effectively (the thermal conductivity coefficient reaches more than 10W/mk), and the filler skeleton has good mechanical properties and electrical insulation properties. In addition, a single thermally conductive filler has a limited effect on improving the thermal conductivity of the composite material, and the conventional method of improving the thermal conductivity by adding a single boron nitride thermally conductive filler generally cannot achieve the expected effect. According to the preparation method, the traditional boron nitride powder is compounded in a multi-stage manner, so that the formed boron nitride compound powder has excellent heat conductivity (the heat conductivity coefficient reaches more than 10W/mk).
During processing, the viscosity of the silicone resin matrix is too high, so that the silicone resin matrix is difficult to be sufficiently combined with the filler framework, and a dry cracking phenomenon can occur; in the assembling process, too high hardness of the heat-conducting interface material can lead to the chip being crushed, and too low elongation can lead to the product itself being crushed, the application matches the silicone resin with the chain extender the cross-linking agent forms macromolecular reticular polymer through the addition reaction of vinyl and silicon-hydrogen, can obtain low viscosity, low hardness, high elongation (the elongation reaches more than 1000%), the silicone resin matrix can fully meet the processing and assembling requirements of the product.
In addition, air is easily wrapped in the mixing process of the filler framework and the silicon resin matrix, so that a large number of cavities and depressions are formed in a finished product, and the yield is greatly influenced. The vacuum impregnation process is adopted, bubbles can be effectively avoided, and the product yield is greatly improved.
