Gel-like gap filler improves cooling performance
Engineering360 News Desk | July 26, 2019Sarcon GR-Ae is an extremely versatile, gel-like consistency thermal interface material that can be die cut to fit
Source: Fujipoly almost any electronic component shape. This gap filler pad is available in multiple thicknesses ranging from 0.5 mm to 5.0 mm and can be ordered in full sheets up to 200 mm x 300 mm.
When sandwiched between heat-generating components and a heat sink, the extremely soft Sarcon GR-Ae material gently fills air gaps that reduce the cooling performance of the heat sink. Once installed, this thermal interface material delivers a thermal conductivity of 1.3 W/m-K with a thermal resistance as low as .50° C/in2/W.
