Thermal conductivity variations with composition of gelatin-silica aerogel-sodium dodecyl sulfate with functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube doping in their composites by Mahesh, Sachithanadam, Joshi, Sunil Chandrakant

“…This paper discusses the variations in thermal conductivity of a binder-treated gelatin silica aerogel-sodium dodecyl sulfate (GSA-SDS) composite blocks doped with COOH group functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (FMWNT) prepared via freeze drying and frothing methods. The thermal conductivity of GSA-SDS and GSA-SDS/FMWNT composites was evaluated with several mass ratios of the composite mix for 1-D steady-state heat transfer at mean temperature, Tm (300-370K), using Lee’s Disc method. …”
