Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for mitigating electrical failures caused by intrusive structures. Such structures can be tin whiskers forming on electrical circuits. In an illustrative embodiment, nano-capsules are filled with some type of insulative and adhesive fluid that is adapted to bind to and coat an intrusive structure, e.g., a whisker, making the whisker electrically inactive and thereby reducing the electrical faults that can be caused by the whisker. In another illustrative embodiment, randomly oriented nano-fibers having an elastic modulus higher than tin or any other whisker material is used to arrest a growth or movement of a whisker and further reduce a likelihood that a whisker can cause an electrical fault.
Abstract:
A molded motor including a stator including a housing formed by integrally molding an armature winding and a printed circuit board with resin containing a fibrous reinforcing material and filler; a magnet rotor rotatably disposed to face the stator; and a plurality of lead wires led out to outside. The printed circuit board is provided with a plurality of lands connecting the lead wires by soldering, and a round hole between the plurality of lands filled with the resin, and the reinforcing material is oriented in a board thickness direction of the printed circuit board.
Abstract:
Polymer brushes (50) in a resin that create phonon pathways therein. The polymer brushes themselves comprise structured polymer hairs having a density of 0.8 to 1.0 g/cc, a chain length of 1 to 1000 nm, and a thermal conductivity of 0.5 to 5.0 W/mK. The polymer brushes are 10-25% by volume of the resin, and the polymer hairs can orient surrounding resin molecules to the polymer hairs alignment (55).
Abstract:
Disclosed is a multilayer material in which at least two components are jointed to each other via an adhesive bond. The adhesive bond is formed by an adhesive or bonding layer containing nanofiber material in a matrix that is suitable as an adhesive.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a dielectric layer of a printed circuit board prepared by dispersing short fibers in a dielectric polymer resin; and impregnating the resin having the short fibers dispersed therein in a fabric-shaped material, and a printed circuit board including the same. The dielectric polymer resin is reinforced with the short fibers and is impregnated in the fabric-shaped material, thereby making it possible to prepare the dielectric layer having excellent strength and low coefficient of thermal expansion. Accordingly, the printed circuit board including the dielectric layer may maintain strength and rigidity thereof at the same level as that of strength and rigidity of the printed circuit board according to the related art, even through a thickness thereof becomes thin.

Abstract:
The invention is directed to polyimide based adhesives having a coefficient of thermal expansion (“CTE”) equal to or below 50 ppm/° C. The adhesives of the present invention contain a polyimide base polymer present in the overall adhesive in an amount from 25 to 95 weight percent. The polyimide base polymer has a glass transition temperature (“Tg”) in a range of from about 150 to about 300° C. and typically has a coefficient of thermal expansion above 50 ppm/° C. The polyimide based adhesives of the invention also contain an aramid micro fiber filler in an amount from 5 to 75 weight percent, based upon the total weight of the polyimide based adhesive. The fiber filler can be used to lower CTE of the overall adhesive to match (or nearly match) the CTE of other materials like metal, silicon wafers, other polymers (including polyimide) and the like.
