Oki Develops Hybrid Heat Radiation Material; Reduces 30% of Heat Radiation from Electronic Components.TOKYO -- Oki Electric Industry Co., Ltd. (TSE See Tokyo Stock Exchange. TSE 1. See Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE). 2. See Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE). :6703) today announced it has achieved in developing RadiCool(TM), a hybrid heat What Is It A Hybrid Heat system reacts to changing climates and automatically adjusts to the most efficient energy saving method available to heat or cool a home. How It Works radiation material that reduces 30% of intense heat generated by electronic equipment. Developed together with Oki Electric Cable Co., Ltd., RadiCool has the capability to reduce both heat radiation and heat conduction Heat conduction or thermal conduction is the spontaneous transfer of thermal energy through matter, from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature, and hence acts to even out temperature differences. . Shipment starts from November 2004 for the electronic equipment and components market, aiming to reach sales of 2 billion yen in the fiscal year ending March 2006. "Because electronic equipment is becoming smaller and lighter with sealed structures, solutions for heat are becoming more critical and important," said Harushige Sugimoto, Senior Vice President of Oki Electric "When RadiCool is used in electronic equipment, there is no need for conventional heat sinks 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. or cooling fans, enabling equipment to become drastically smaller. In addition, because heat loss can be controlled, RadiCool also contributes in equipment to have longer life, higher performance and lower power consumption." RadiCool is a sticker with "Cerac a (alpha)" painted onto a thin beaten-copper sheet that comes in two types: the sheet-type and the ring-type. Cerac a is the environment-friendly, inorganic liquid ceramic paint for heat radiation, co-developed by Oki Electric and Ceramission Co., Ltd. It is designed to make a 50um to 150um thin coat by utilizing the ceramic characteristic to radiate ra·di·ate v. 1. To spread out in all directions from a center. 2. To emit or be emitted as radiation. ra heat by converting heat to far infra-red radiation. The 30% heat reduction RadiCool can achieve includes 20% from Cerac a's heat radiation and 10% from the thin beaten-copper's heat conduction. Because polyimide Pronounced "poly-ih-mid." A type of plastic (a synthetic polymeric resin) originally developed by DuPont that is very durable, easy to machine and can handle very high temperatures. Polyimide is also highly insulative and does not contaminate its surroundings (does not outgas). is used in RadiCool, it could be easily bent or pulled, and cut with scissors scissors Cutting instrument or tool consisting of a pair of opposed metal blades that meet and cut when the handles at their ends are brought together. Modern scissors are of two types: the more usual pivoted blades have a rivet or screw connection between the cutting ends , which enables it to be placed freely onto necessary surfaces. In addition, Oki Electric Cable's technology in developing flexible printer circuit (FPC fpc - A translator from Backus's FP to C. ftp://apple.com/comp.sources.Unix/Volume20. ) makes RadiCool only 0.2mm thick flexible for bending and pulling.
