Abstract:
1. A frame system for an image display device comprising a plurality of electronic components, the frame system comprising: heat dispersion material comprising at least one sheet of compressed particles of exfoliated graphite having an in-plane thermal conductivity of at least about 250 W/m-K and a thermal anisotropic ratio of no less than about 10, the heat dispersion material positioned proximate to an image display panel; and a framework positioned proximate to the heat dispersion material opposite the image display panel, the framework comprising a metal support member, wherein a plurality of the electronic components engage the framework, and further wherein the frame system exhibits a support factor of less than about 150 mm-W/m-K, wherein the support factor is determined by multiplying the thickness of the support member present in the display panel by its in-plane thermal conductivity where the image display device exhibits improved temperature uniformity as compared to an image display device having a frame system which exhibits a support factor of less than about 150 mm-W/m-K but does not include a heat dispersion material having an in-plane thermal conductivity of at least about 250 W/m-K and a thermal anisotropic ratio of no less than about 10 positioned proximate to the image display panel.
