Towards Reproducible ASTM D5470 Measurements at Lower Cost
Baratunde A. Cola Georgia Institute of Technology INTRODUCTION ASTM D5470 (updated to ASTM D5470-12 in 2012) [1] remains an industry standard for characterizing thermal interface materials (TIMs) despite some drawbacks. Ultimately, a TIM must be tested in its application to conclude its merits. Standardized testing is useful, however, for comparing TIMs in research and … [Read more...]
Prehistoric Cave Paint to Shield Solar Spacecraft
A European spacecraft scheduled for launch towards the sun in 2017 will be shielded from extreme temperatures by a type of paint once used in prehistoric cave art. Carrying instruments to perform high-resolution imaging of the sun, the European Space Agency’s Solar Orbiter will travel as close as 42 million kilometers, or a little more than a quarter of the distance to Earth, … [Read more...]
One Component Silicone Offers High Temperature Resistance, Thermal Conductivity and Electrical Isolation
Master Bond has released its new MasterSil 705TC, a non-drip, one-component silicone suitable for a variety of bonding, sealing and coating applications. Featuring a paste consistency that doesn’t require mixing, MasterSil 705TC sets up in seven minutes and has a non-corrosive cure at room temperature when exposed to atmospheric humidity. The new silicone delivers thermal … [Read more...]
