Thermal interface material is a crucial component when it comes to protecting and maintaining the longevity of electronic devices. At OSCO, we have a range of thermal interface material types suited for different applications.
How does thermal interface material work?
TIMs are used to increase the efficiency thermal energy transfer between a heat source and a heat sink – also known as the heat dissipation device.
Due to the rough surface of some devices, contact resistance can form which creates a barrier for heat transfer. This is where TIMs come into action as they can fill the void that forms between the heat source and heat sink and allows for the heat transfer to take place smoothly.
Why choose OSCO for your thermal interface material?
We work with SARCON, a highly developed silicone rubber material with exceptional flame-resistance and thermal conductivity properties. By amalgamating the inherent silicone rubber properties of electrical insulation, heat resistance and long-term aging into a single compound, thermal interface material configurations can be supplied to a vast variety of industries.
The benefits of using SARCON for the design of thermal interface material are as follows:
- Long-term reliability and durability
- High thermal impedance
- Stable chemical compatibility with metals, plastics and ceramics
