What is a thermal conductive adhesive?

Thermally conductive adhesives such as tapes, films, and glues are used to bond heat-generating components to heat sinks. Thermal adhesives not only conduct heat, but they can also provide structural integrity, electrical insulation, or electrical conductivity.

How do I choose the best thermally conductive adhesive?

When selecting the best thermally conductive adhesive for a specific application, a deep understanding of the thermal performance, structural characteristics, and processibility of the adhesives is needed.

What is a thermal film adhesive?

Thermal film adhesives consist of a thin, thermally conductive adhesive layer and, sometimes, a carrier or backing that provides structural support and dimensional stability. Pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) are typically used, but some thermal film adhesives are cured with heat or with both heat and pressure.

What is Henkel thermally conductive adhesive?

Henkel thermally conductive adhesive products combine fantastic bonding abilities with unrivaled thermal management capabilities. This allows for necessary heat dissipation in heat-generating components, while also reducing the need for clips and screws.

Can thermal adhesives be cured?

Curing can involve heat, room temperature, or UV light, depending on the adhesive type, to achieve final bond strength and thermal conductivity. What are the common challenges in using thermal adhesives? Challenges include ensuring proper bonding surfaces, controlling curing conditions, and managing adhesive viscosity and application thickness.

What are thermal adhesives used for?

Thermal adhesives are also used with batteries in electric vehicles, LEDs, smart meters, headlamps, and other products that generate heat. As their name suggests, thermal adhesives combine bonding with thermal management. They also eliminate the need for clips, screws, or rivets for smaller, lighter products.
