The performance difference between thermal gel and commonly used thermal grease

The performance difference between thermal conductive gel and commonly used thermal conductive silicone grease

Thermal grease is believed to be familiar to everyone who has heard of it and seen it before, and thermally conductive gel is a new type of thermally conductive material newly developed in recent years.

Thermally conductive gel has more advantages than silicone grease in terms of performance. The basic state of these two materials is a paste-like thermal conductive material. The thermal conductive silicone grease is flow-shaped, and the thermal conductive gel is like plasticine during use, and there will be no flow or sedimentation, so everyone must Don't mistakenly think that thermal gel and silicone grease are the same thermal product.

Thermally conductive gel has good viscosity, and it is made of a variety of thermally conductive powder and thermally conductive silica gel after being fully cured and mixed. Its thermal conductivity is also much higher than the general paste thermal conductivity. Thermally conductive gel generally uses a syringe Packaging, and there will be no free air in the thermal gel material. When in use, it is generally used with an automatic dispenser. The operating efficiency is very high. The thermal conductive material such as silicone grease is generally packaged in cans, and the thickness Adjust, but the final state makes it flow-like. Screen printing or manual gluing can be used during use. The operation is relatively simple, but only manual operation.

The thermally conductive gel can be compressed indefinitely during use, and can even be compressed into the form of a thermally conductive silicone pad, without liquid precipitation. The thermal gel will never dry and lose its thermal conductivity after use. The service life of silicone grease in the thermal conductive material is relatively short. After six months or one year of use, it will become dry and solid powder and lose its thermal conductivity.

The thermal resistance, temperature resistance and other technical parameters of thermal gel and silicone grease are different, but it does not mean that any product must use thermal gel instead of silicone grease, which is mainly based on customer products. It is necessary to choose a relatively suitable product. Because the cost of thermal gel is higher than that of silicone grease, the general application areas are some high-tech products and products with special requirements.

The thermal conductive grease is still one of the more widely used thermal conductive materials.
