A heat-dissipating plastic is provided. The heat-dissipating plastic according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is implemented by including a polymer matrix formed by including a main resin; and a carbon-based filler which is provided by being dispersed in the polymer matrix, and includes a fibrous carbon-based filler and a granular carbon-based filler.

According to the above, the heat-dissipating plastic has remarkably excellent heat dissipation characteristics due to the remarkably excellent thermal conductivity, and it has an effect that the mechanical strength is remarkably excellent even though it is designed to have remarkably excellent heat dissipation characteristics. Accordingly, the implemented heat-dissipating plastic can be widely applied in various technical fields where excellent heat-dissipating performance and mechanical strength are required at the same time.

Inorganic polymers are produced from silicate (—Si—O—) and/or phosphonate (—P—O—) bonds, commonly found in rocks and glass, to create new polymeric materials for rubbers, fibers, and plastics. These inorganic polymers have various advantages over organic counterparts including abundance on the earth's crust, and properties including nonflammability, low toxicity, recyclability, and excellent thermal and chemical resistance.

Adhesive damping systems are described. A damping system for reducing the effects on a substrate caused by a disruption in the substrate environment includes an adhesive having a plurality of three-dimensional nanoparticles dispersed therein. The nanoparticles are configured to provide a controlled response to an applied force field. The system further includes a sensor which measures an amplitude and frequency spectrum of the disruption. In a use configuration, the sensor determines the amplitude and frequency spectrum of the disruption received by the substrate; and the applied force field is dependent on the amplitude and frequency spectrum of the disruption.

“Black” photoactive materials that comprise synthetic eumelanin polymers are provided, as are methods of making and using the polymers.
