description Poor thermal management in electronic systems can lead to higher junction temperatures, accelerating failure mechanisms and reducing component lifespan. Integrating efficient thermal management techniques, such as heat sinks, is essential for ensuring durability and efficiency of electronic equipment.

However, leakage and low thermal conductivity limit PCM's effectiveness. The current study developed highly conductive leakage-proof PCMs based composites using an ultrasonic and vacuum impregnation method with lauric acid as base, hexagonal boron nitride and expanded graphite as additives.
