TIMs

Thermal interface materials, including greases, gels, pads, gap fillers, phase-change materials, and thermal adhesives, are critical for transferring heat between electronic components and heat spreaders. Their performance depends on thermal conductivity, phase-change behavior, filler loading, flow, compliance, and mechanical stability under compression, shear, and thermal cycling. TA Instruments provides thermal conductivity, DSC, TGA, DMA, and rheology solutions to help optimize heat dissipation, processability, and long-term reliability.
