Abstract
Abstract Adhesive resins are filled with carbon fibers that have a three-dimensional structure. The fibers have variable lengths and widths. The fiber filled adhesive exhibits high thermal conductivity values. Electronic systems having components bonded by a layer of these adhesives resins have high through-the-thickness thermal conductivity.
