Heat Sink Compound Types

Since air is one of the worst thermal conductors on earth it will impede the heat sink s ability to lower the cpu temperature.

Heat sink compound types.

Silicone base extra high efficiency heat transfer. 4 7 out of 5 stars 26. Temperature range from 45 degrees f to 500 degrees f. For mounting transistors diodes rectifiers and resistors.

A heat sink also commonly spelled heatsink is a passive heat exchanger that transfers the heat generated by an electronic or a mechanical device to a fluid medium often air or a liquid coolant where it is dissipated away from the device thereby allowing regulation of the device s temperature. 1446622 silicone heat sink compound lubricant grease 5 oz 140 g tube. Type z9 1 fluid ounce. Thermal joint compound for any device where efficient cooling is desired.

Thermal joint compound for any device where efficient cooling is desired. Silicone compound blended with thermally conductive fine metal oxide powders. For mounting transistors diodes rectifiers and resistors. Silicone base extra high efficiency heat transfer.

Zinc oxide compounds create a more secure bond than silicone compounds. Super lube silicone heat sink 3 oz. These compounds are commonly used with transistors diodes rectifiers and transformers. Will not react to rubber or plastic.

Thermal paste also called thermal compound thermal grease thermal interface material tim thermal gel heat paste heat sink compound heat sink paste or cpu grease is a thermally conductive but usually electrically insulating chemical compound which is commonly used as an interface between heat sinks and heat sources such as high power semiconductor devices. Type z9 1 fluid ounce. In computers heat sinks are used to cool cpus gpus and some chipsets and ram modules. Bond heat sinks to surfaces eliminating air gaps for maximum heat transfer.

More buying choices 32 99 8 new offers thermal paste 5 pack thermalcoolflux tm high performance polysynthetic silver thermal paste. In order to choose the correct heat sink for cooling electronic applications it s useful for engineers to understand the definitions uses and benefits of different types of heat sinks. Excellent heat transfer efficiency. For effective transfer of heat between components heat sinks will not dry or harden white past.

Will not harden or melt. 4 6 out of.
