Conductive silicone. (Materials).


Thermasil silicones are thermally conductive, fire resistant materials for dielectric dielectric (dī'ĭlĕk`trĭk), material that does not conduct electricity readily, i.e., an insulator (see insulation). A good dielectric should also have other properties: It must resist breakdown under high voltages; it should not  potting and encapsulating in electronics and aerospace applications. Thermasil I and IX are single component systems available in a range of viscosities where maximum thermal conductivity is required. Thermasil II is a softer system which may be stored at room temperature. All Thermasil products are said to offer high temperature resistance (with an operating range of -50 to +250 [degrees] C), high thermal conductivity and tensile strength tensile strength

Ratio of the maximum load a material can support without fracture when being stretched to the original area of a cross section of the material. When stresses less than the tensile strength are removed, a material completely or partially returns to its

 the company. Form-in-place heat sink A material that absorbs heat. Typically made of aluminum, heat sinks are widely used in amplifiers and other electronic devices that build up heat. Small heat sinks are the most economical method for cooling microprocessors and other chips.  requirements are said to be met by Thermasil protective coatings. Typical applications include electronic assemblies with high temperature and voltage exposure, power resistors, cables and connectors. The company is said to offer a wide range of temperature critical potting and encapsulating materials. (Transene)
