TPC-Z-PC (-AL), TPC-Z-PC-D, TPC-Z-PC-P Phase Change Material

TPC-Z-PC is a thermally conductive phase changing compound optimising the thermal

path e.g. between electronic packages and heat sinks. During warm-up the phase
change compound starts filling up surface-specific roughnesses and unevenesses and
expels any air enclosures from micro structures even at very low pressure. The
wettening of the contact areas is further on improved by volumetric material expansion at
increasing temperature. Thus the total thermal resistance is minimised. The particular
formulation and the thixotropic nature prevents from run-out, dry-up as well as migration.
The material is available as TPC-Z200-PC1 as film or as TPC-Z-PC-D2 as dispensable
dryable type. TPC-Z-P7 and -P8 are printable compounds with alternatively long drying
times. As TPC-Z-PC-AL3 the compound is available with an aluminum film carrier thus
reworkability is improved since no compound residues remain on one side.
