Thermal interface includes fibre for
strength
High-tensile-strength thermal interface material improves heat transfer between components and heatsinks, and provides durability for installation and long-term use.
Available now from MH+W International, Keratherm 86/82 is a high-tensile-strength thermal interface material (TIM) that improves heat transfer from ICs and other components to their heatsinks, and provides durability for installation and long-term use Keratherm 86/82 is a thermally conductive, electrically isolating silicone film with a reinforcing glass-fibre layer for tear and cut-through resistance
