Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a graphite film, and a graphite composite film both having an excellent thermal diffusivity which can sufficiently manage heat dissipation of electronic instruments, precision instruments and the like, along with an excellent flex resistance which can withstand application to bent portions. Means for Resolution of the present invention is a graphite film exhibiting the number of reciprocal foldings being 10,000 times or more as measured using a rectangular strip test piece having a width of 15 mm until the test piece breaks in a MIT folding endurance test under conditions of: a curvature radius R of the bending clamp being 2 mm; a left-and-right bending angle being 135°; a bending rate being 90 times/min; and a load being 0.98 N.

Claims (7)

1. A graphite film exhibiting the number of reciprocal foldings being 10,000 times or more as measured according to a folding endurance test with a rectangular strip test piece having a width of 15 mm until the test piece breaks under conditions of: a curvature radius R of a bending clamp being 2 mm; a left-and-right bending angle being 135 degrees; a bending rate being 90 times/min; and a load being 0.98 N.

2. The graphite film according to claim 1 , said graphite film exhibiting the number of reciprocal foldings being 10,000 times or more as measured according to a folding endurance test with a rectangular strip test piece having a width of 15 mm until the test piece breaks under conditions of: a curvature radius R of the bending clamp being 1 mm; a left-and-right bending angle being 135 degrees; a bending rate being 90 times/min; and a load being 0.98 N.

3. The graphite film according to claim 1 , wherein the graphite film has a coefficient of thermal diffusivity in a planer direction of not less than 8.0×10 −4 m 2 /s.

4. A graphite composite film comprising a plastic film formed on the graphite film according to claim 1 via an adhesive material or an adhesive.

5. The graphite film according to claim 2 , wherein the graphite film has a coefficient of thermal diffusivity in a planer direction of not less than 8.0×10 −4 m 2 /s.

6. A graphite composite film comprising a plastic film formed on the graphite film according to claim 2 via an adhesive material or an adhesive.

7. A graphite composite film comprising a plastic film formed on the graphite film according to claim 3 via an adhesive material or an adhesive.
