Description: "Tacky2"- 71°C Thermaphase compound is precoated onto a
2-mil Aluminum substrate. This material is slightly adhesive at room
temperature. It can be temporarily adhered to heat sink surfaces by
simply pressing it firmly onto the heat sink. When the temperature
of this material exceeds the reflow temperature, the compound
reflows and fills all of the pores of both electronic component and
heat sink to form a very low thermal resistance interface. The
material requires only 10psi of closure force to flow when in the
molten state and creates a very thin thermal interface. This
material is thermoplastic. It can be reflowed and solidified
innumerable times. After initial reflow and when re-solidified by
cooling to a temperature below the phase temperature, this material
has an adhesive strength of 25psi. Simply heating above the phase
change temperature for component removal can break the adhesive
bond. This material can replace thermally conductive epoxies in most
applications. It is not a thermosetting material like epoxy. It can
operate either in the solid or reflowed state.
