AB  - The synergistic effect between different fillers plays a crucial role in 
      determining the performance of composites. In this work, spherical boron nitride 
      (BN) and flaky BN are used as hybrid fillers to improve the thermal conductivity 
      (TC) of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) composites. A series of HDPE composites 
      were prepared by adjusting the mass ratio (1:0, 4:1, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:4, and 0:1) 
      of spherical BN and flaky BN. The SEM results indicate that the spherical BN 
      (with a particle size of 3 mum) effectively filled the gaps between the flaky BN 
      (with a particle size of 30 mum), leading to the formation of more continuous heat 
      conduction paths with the composite. Remarkably, when the mass ratio of spherical 
      BN to flaky BN was set to 1:4 (with a total BN filling amount of 30 wt%), the TC 
      of the composite could reach up to 1.648 Wm(-1)K(-1), which is obviously higher 
      than that of the composite containing a single filler, realizing the synergistic 
      effect of the hybrid fillers. In addition, the synergistic effect of fillers also 
      affects the thermal stability and crystallization behavior of composites. This 
      work is of great significance for optimizing the application of hybrid BN fillers 
      in the field of thermal management.
