What is thermal tape?

• Double Sided Thermal Tape: Both sides are adhesive, which can firmly stick the heat generating element to the heat sink, such as HCT series thermal double sided tape, which has good thermal conductivity and insulating properties, and is used in computers, LED lighting and other equipment.
• Single Sided Thermal Tape: One side is adhesive, suitable for specific installation needs, easy to stick on one side of the heat source or heat sink.
• Thermal Conductive Silicone Tape: Although it is not a traditional tape form, it is also a kind of thermal tape, sheet-like, with good thermal conductivity, strong adhesion, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, used to fill up the larger gap between heat generating devices and heat sinks.

• Good thermal conductivity: it can quickly conduct heat from the heat source to the heat sink, effectively reducing the temperature of the heat generating components, such as in computer CPU cooling, it can help keep the CPU at a low temperature, preventing downclocking or damage due to overheating.
• Strong adhesion: It can firmly stick the heat generator and heat sink without additional mechanical fixation, ensuring the heat sink components are closely connected, such as in high-power LED lighting fixtures, the aluminum substrate and heat sink can be closely stuck together.
• High Temperature Resistance: Stable performance under high temperature environment, no flow, no failure, can be adapted to the internal high temperature working conditions of electronic equipment, such as servers and other long time high load operation of the equipment in the application of heat dissipation.
• Corrosion resistance: with a certain degree of chemical corrosion resistance, can resist electronic equipment may come into contact with chemical substances erosion, to ensure long-term performance.
• Flexible: can be bent, folded, can fit different shapes and surfaces of the heat and heat dissipation components, suitable for a variety of complex structures of electronic equipment, such as laptop computers in the internal compact space of the heat dissipation components pasted.

• Electronics industry: widely used in computers, cell phones, tablet PCs and other equipment, paste the chip and heat sink, also used for graphics cards, motherboards and other electronic components heat dissipation, such as in smart phones, the heat chip and heat dissipation graphite sheet can be pasted together to improve the efficiency of heat dissipation.
• Communication field: communication base station equipment with high power and heat generation, heat dissipation tape is used to paste filters, amplifiers and other heat generating components and heat dissipation devices to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
• Automotive electronics: automotive engine control system, car entertainment system and other electronic equipment heat, heat dissipation tape is used to paste the relevant chip and heat dissipation components, to ensure that the high temperature, vibration environment and reliable work.
• Aerospace: Aircraft avionics equipment has high heat dissipation requirements, heat dissipation tape is used to paste key electronic components and heat dissipation structure to ensure stable operation of equipment in harsh environments.

Development trend of high performance: research and development of higher thermal conductivity of the thermal tape, to meet the heat dissipation needs of high-power electronic equipment, such as the development of new types of thermally conductive filler and polymer matrix, improve thermal conductivity and overall performance. Multifunctionalization: In addition to heat dissipation, both electromagnetic shielding, shock absorption buffer and other functions, such as the development of both thermal conductivity and shielding electromagnetic interference tape, used in 5G communications and other complex electromagnetic environment. Environmental protection: the use of environmentally friendly materials and production processes, in line with environmental regulations, to reduce the impact on the environment, such as the development of biodegradable, non-polluting heat dissipation tape.
