\"\"<\/a> Nusil Technology has a new low outgassing, thermal interface silicone material<\/a> available.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s EPM-2495P<\/a> offers some interesting specifications including Thermal Conductivity* 0.64 W\/(mK).\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 It looks like it may take some work to use, requiring some mixing and curing and it requires a vacuum chamber to remove any air introduced during mixing.\u00c2\u00a0 But, for low outgassing needs, Nusil’s EPM-2495P might be a good answer.<\/p>\n

Of course, that begs the question, why?\u00c2\u00a0 Why would you need to go to the trouble of a low outgassing thermal interface material?\u00c2\u00a0 Because in some cases, outgassing 0f a material can interact with either the involved heat of the device being cooled or the chemicals in the material to which it’s outgassing too.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 The result can be a breakdown in these material, reduced reliability and potentially reduced functionality.<\/p>\n

And speaking of Thermal Interface Material, ATS’s thermal team wrote an informational article on Phase Change Interface Material that our readers might be interested in.\u00c2\u00a0 Phase change material offers many of the benefits of grease with far less of the complications.\u00c2\u00a0 Click to Phase Change Materials for Transient Electronics Cooling<\/a> to have a read.<\/p>\n

Of course, in extreme situations only grease will do.\u00c2\u00a0 And were outgassing is a critical need, Nusil’s It’s EPM-2495P<\/a> might be the best approach too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
