Why is it important?

The thermo-physical properties of NFs including thermal conductivity (TC) and viscosity may be affected by several factors including the base liquid, which is not well studied in the literature. Focus of the present work is to study the impact of base liquid by comparing the TC and viscosity of a commercial silver (Ag) NFs with lab-made water, EG and water/ethylene glycol (W/EG) mixture (50:50 by wt%) at different Ag NP loadings.
