Hi,

I would like to know if a vapor coating of a composite (carbon-epoxy) with a metal, could improve the thermal conductivity?

The composite skins are bonded to honeycomb core with an epoxy adhesive. So I'm not sure if a coating could increase the heat exchange rate or if it only add a new layer (and add thermal contact resistance).

Thanks
