Abstract

Lightweight heat-conducting plates of compressed expanded graphite material have layer planes which are preferably disposed so as to be parallel to the surface so that heat conduction in a lateral direction is preferred to heat conduction perpendicular to the plate plane. The heat-conducting plates are suitable for the transmission of heat of floor-heating, wall-heating, ceiling-heating and other flatly disposed heating systems and air-conditioning ceilings, for the transmission of heat and the dissipation of heat in buildings, automobiles, machines, installations and containers. The heat-conducting plates are dimensionally stable without the addition of binder and aggregates and can be produced in a continuous process. A composite component having at least one heat-conducting plate and a method for production of heat-conducting plates are also provided.
