MOSCOW, April 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The new alloys created by NUST MISIS scientists in cooperation with LG Electronics will help reduce the weight of radiators and heat removal systems in electric vehicles and consumer electronics by one third. The research results are published in the Journal of Magnesium and Alloys.
According to experts, with the development of electronics the problem of efficient heat removal is becoming more and more acute – with an increase in the productivity of equipment, heat generation also grows. Reducing the temperature directly affects the prolongation of the devices’ life cycle. This is especially important for household appliances, electric vehicles, LED panels.
Scientists from NUST MISIS, in collaboration with LG Electronics, have created new high-heat-conductivity magnesium alloys that differ from their counterparts in increased reliability and low cost, and in addition, they can significantly reduce the weight of devices.
“Traditionally, aluminum is used for heat removal, but it turns out to be too massive for modern gadgets. Reducing the…
