HIGH PERFORMANCE PHASE CHANGE MATERIAL
Tpcm
TM
580S are high performance thermal phase change materials designed to meet the thermal, reliability, and price
requirements of high end thermal applications. Tpcm
TM
580S is inherently tacky, flexible and exceptionally easy to use.
At temperatures above its transition temperature of 50°C (122°F), Tpcm
TM
580S begins to soften and flow, filling the
microscopic irregularities of the components it contacts. The result is an interface with minimal thermal contact resistance.
Due to the gradual change in viscosity (softening), Tpcm
TM
580S minimizes migration (pump out).
Tpcm
TM
580S can be supplied as cut parts in strips and rolls with top tabbed liners for easy application. The top tabbed
liner can be removed immediately or provide a protective cover during shipping and removed at assembly. Tpcm
TM
580S
can also be supplied in sheets and custom die cut configurations. Tpcm
TM
580S meets all environmental requirements
including RoHS.
