Laird Tpcm™ 5816

Laird Tpcm™ 5816 is a high-performance thermal phase change material (PCM) designed to meet the thermal reliability and price requirements of high-end thermal applications. It is a non-reinforced film with a phase change softening temperature of 50°C. At temperatures above its transition temperature, Tpcm™ 5816 begins to soften and flow, filling the microscopic irregularities of the components it comes into contact with. The result is an interface with minimal thermal contact resistance. Due to the gradual change in viscosity (softening), it minimises migration (pump-out).

This product is inherently tacky, flexible and exceptionally easy-to-use. Tpcm™ 5816 is reliable, offers low total thermal resistance and meets all environmental requirements including RoHS. Common applications include microprocessors, chipsets, graphic processing chips and custom ASICS.

Tpcm™ 5816 is available in custom roll widths, sheets or die-cut shapes. For more information, please contact us.
