Tpcm 580SP



Screen Printable Phase Change Material

TpcmTM 580SP is an exceptionally high performance, screen printable or stencilable thermal interface material designed to meet the thermal reliability and price requirements of high-end thermal applications. It contains a solvent to assist in processing. After drying off the solvent, Tpcm 580SP will be dry to the touch. Tpcm 580SP begins to soften and flow at temperatures around 50deg C. At which point, Tpcm 580SP will fill the microscopic irregularities of the components it contacts. The result is an interface with minimal contact thermal resistance. Tpcm 580SP softens; it does not fully change state, resulting in minimal migration (pump out) under thermal cycling from room temperature to chip device operating temperatures.

Tmate 2900



Thermal Phase Change Material

For Exceptionally Low Thermal Resistance The Tmate 2900 Series is a reusable phase change material (PCM) designed for ease of testing and rework ability. It has a composite construction of a special malleable metal alloy and a high-performance PCM. At 50deg C the Tmate 2900 Series begins to soften and flow filling the microscopic irregularities of the thermal solution thus reducing thermal resistance. It shows no thermal performance degradation after 1 000 hours @130deg C or after 500 cycles from -25deg C to 125deg C. The PCM softens and does not fully change state resulting in minimal migration (pump-out) at operating temperatures (see viscosity curve). It is available in three thicknesses: 0.005""; (0.125 mm) 0.010""; (0.25 mm) and 0.020""; (0.5 mm).

Tpcm 580



Thermal Phase Change Material

For Exceptionally Low Thermal Resistance The Tpcm 580 Series is a high-performance thermal phase change material (PCM) designed to meet the thermal reliability and price requirements of high-end thermal applications. The Series is inherently tacky, flexible and exceptionally easy-to-use. The Tpcm 580 Series is available in four thicknesses: 0.003""; (Tpcm 583), 0.005""; (Tpcm 585), 0.008""; (Tpcm 588), 0.010""; (Tpcm 5810) and 0.016""; (Tpcm 5816). At temperatures above its transition temperature of 50deg C (122deg F), the Tpcm 580 Series begins to soften and flow, filling the microscopic irregularities of the components it comes into contact with. The result is an interface with minimal thermal contact resistance. Due to the gradual change in viscosity (softening), it minimizes migration (pump-out). The Tpcm 580 Series can be supplied as cut parts in strips and rolls with top tabbed liners for easy application. The top tabbed liner can be removed immediately or provide a protective cover during shipping, and can be removed at assembly. It can also be supplied in sheets and custom die-cut configurations; and meets all environmental requirements including RoHS.

Tpcm HP105



Thermal Phase Change Material

For Exceptionally Low Thermal Resistance The Tpcm HP105 Series is a high-performance phase change material (PCM) product with exceptionally low thermal resistance. It has a softening range of approximately 50deg C to 60deg C. Proprietary technology prevents excessive pump-out after the initial heat cycle. The material is naturally tacky and requires no adhesive coating or heat sink preheat for attachment. The Tpcm HP105 Series does not cure and can be easily removed without pulling the processor out of the socket. It is supplied in rolls with a top tabbed liner for easy manual or large volume automated applications.

Tpcm 7000



Thermal Phase Change Material

Tpcm 7000 is newest in Laird’s line of high-performance TIM product offerings. With a thermal conductivity of 7.5 W/mK, Tpcm 7000 is designed to enhance the cooling of the most rigorous thermal challenges in electronics. Softening between 50°C –70°C, the initial pad thickness can decrease to a bondline as thin as 35µm. Coupled with superior wetting of the mating surfaces and displacing air, Tpcm 7000 provides industry leading lowest thermal resistance. Tpcm 7000reliability has been demonstrated though exposure to 2000 hours of various aging tests resulting in proven dependability at an operating temperature of 150°C. The specialty polymeric matrix offers superior pump out resistance when compared to thermally conductive greases and other phase change materials. Tpcm 7000 has been formulated to provide just the right tack, remaining on liners yet easily removeable for application.
