Laird phase change material enables stencil applied TIM

April 23, 2011 — Laird Technologies Inc. released the Tpcm 580SP Series phase change material, a high-performance, screen-printable or stencilable thermal interface material (TIM) product with a thermal conductivity of 4.0W/mK that provides an alternative to thermal grease.

The PCM pad contains a solvent that assists in processing, which allows for surface wetting. After drying, the solvent is moistureless to the touch, and therefore eliminates the mess associated with thermal grease.

Once the solvent is removed, Tpcm 580SP begins to soften and flow at temperatures around 45
