Graphite PAD

Graphite PAD makes it possible to fill the large gap and transfer the heat from heat-generating devices such as ICs.

Features and structure of the Graphite-PAD

  • Graphite-PAD is a high-performance Thermal Interface Material (TIM), with the best thermal conductivity and compressibility in thermal PAD market.
  • High thermal conductivity out-of-plane (Z-axis) of 13 W/mK by vertical-oriented graphite powder filled in the silicon resin.
  • Low Shore hardness (type E) of 25 and high compressibility of >60% supporting the flexibility of thermal design.
