While plastics are poor conductors of heat, the need to have lighter and more versatile thermally conductive materials has been instrumental in the development of a novel variety of these materials that possess thermal conductivity. The heat conduction in plastics is only through lattice vibrations, since these materials are made up of covalently bonded polymeric chains whose electrons are closely bonded with the parent atoms, owing to which no valence electrons exist. Thermally conductive plastic compounds provide the capacity of replacing metals, ceramics and traditional plastics for heat sensitive applications. The wide usage of these materials has been seen in sectors, such as electronics, automotive, aerospace, healthcare, telecommunications and general industry, among others. To make plastics thermally conductive, it is required that they be integrated with appropriate fillers, which can primarily be carbon-based, ceramic-based and metal-based, with mineral-based fillers also being widely used.
