Polymers with flawed fillers boost heat transfer in plastics.

Counterintuitive finding challenges long-held assumptions that defects compromise material performance.

Polymers made with graphite oxide fillers containing defects performed 160% better than those with perfect fillers.

This points to a promising new strategy for engineering polymer composites with ultrahigh thermal conductivity.

These advanced present new opportunities for devices - from high-performance microchips to next-generation soft robotics - to operate cooler and more efficiently through improved heat dissipation.
