Thermal conductivity of rubber composites filled with CNTs (carbon nanotubes) and N234 CB (carbon black) were investigated. Result indicated that Thermal conductivity of NR (natural rubber) filled with CNTs is higher than that of NR filled with CB in the case of the same filling amount. CNTs can better improve the performance of thermal conduct of rubber composites than CB. The more the filling content of CNTs is, the higher thermal conductivity of NR composites.

The results of an experimental study of the viscosity and thermal conductivity coefficients of suspensions with single-walled carbon nanotubes are presented. The range of nanotube mass concentrations ranged from 0.05 to 0.25 wt.%. The studied suspensions showed non-Newtonian behavior. Dependences of rheological parameters of suspensions on nanotube concentration were obtained. The influence of the base liquid on the viscosity and thermal conductivity of suspensions was established.

This paper reviews the studies of the thermophysical properties of nanotubes and nanofluids and reports the experimental studies on the thermal conductivity of individual carbon nanotubes and nanofluids containing spherical and cylindrical nanoparticles. The thermal conductivity of a single carbon nanotube has been measured by a suspended sample-attached T-type nanosensor. The size effect of the different diameters on the thermal conductivity has been observed experimentally. The effective thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of Au/toluene, Al2O3/water, TiO2/water, CuO/water and carbon nanofibers (CNFs)/water nanofluids have been measured by using the transient short-hot-wire technique. The measured results demonstrate that the effective thermal conductivities of CNFs/water nanofluids are much greater than those of nanofluids containing spherical nanoparticles. However, the effective thermal conductivities do not show any anomalous enhancements and can be accurately predicted by the existing formulas.

In this paper, carbon nanotubes—ammonia nanofluids (the binary nanofluids) have been prepared by two steps method. And the thermal conductivity, surface tension and kinetic viscosity of the binary nanofluid have been measured. The effects of the mass fraction of carbon nanotubes, the concentration of ammonia and temperature on the thermal physical properties of the binary nanofluid have been systematically studied. On the base, the effective thermal conductivities of the binary nanofluids have been calculated using the models in the literatures, and have been compared with the experimental values.
