At the 2019 International Microwave Symposium (IMS) Element Six, part of the De Beers Group, launched a new diamond thermal material grade designated Diafilm TM220. Said to be the world’s first diamond thermal material engineered to offer industrial users thermal conductivity in excess of 2200 W/mK, Diafilm TM220 was developed in response to the increasing demand for more … [Read more...]
Thermal Conductive Materials & EM Noise Absorbents
Taica’s Alpha Gel’s softness and conformity help minimize heat resistance and stress on critical devices in electronics. K thermal-conductivity material is available, facilitating heat dissipation results. The gel retains the softness and tackiness of its base material. It adheres to rough surfaces, easily compressed, and air gaps could be driven out for efficient thermal … [Read more...]

Energy Efficiency Reshapes Thermal Management Challenges
Electronic equipment manufacturers are increasingly more focused on achieving high efficiency levels for their circuit designs in response to global concerns about the impact on the environment. However, the thermal benefits of high efficiency circuit design are often offset by the heat generated due to the trend for more densely packed components. Factors such as limited … [Read more...]
Heat Conducting Graphene Could Cool Electronics
Multiple layers of graphene show strong heat conducting properties that can be harnessed in removing dissipated heat from electronic devices, a team of scientists from the University of California reported in a recently published paper in the journal Nature Materials. Having previously shown that graphene — a two-dimensional layer of carbon atoms packed in a honeycomb structure … [Read more...]
