Thercobond thermally-conductive bonding and printed materials, for power electronics and photonics applications, offer thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, thermal expansion, dielectric and insulating properties, wettability, and printability.

Sarcon 25GR-T2d conformable thermal interface medium is for low and high-volume production applications. The reinforced 0.25mm thick TIM is for tight tolerance die-cut operations. When placed between a heat source and a nearby heat sink, gap filler pad provides a thermal conductivity of 1.5 W/m°K and a thermal resistance as low as 0.33 °Cin²/W. Handles operational temperatures between -40°C and +150°C. Comes in pre-cut sheets up to a max. size of 200mm x 400mm.
