Heat-conducting silicone grease, also called heat-conducting paste and heat-dissipating paste, is a heat-conducting silicone paste composite made of organic silicone as the main raw material and materials with high temperature resistance and excellent heat-conducting performance. It is mainly used for heat conduction and dissipation of power amplifiers, electronic tubes, CPU, transistors and other electronic components, thus ensuring the normal operation of electronic equipment. Thermal conductive silicone grease is an organic silicon material with both thermal conductivity and insulation properties. It hardly solidifies and can be kept in a pasty state for a long time at a temperature of-50℃ to+230℃. Not only has excellent electrical insulation, but also has excellent thermal conductivity, and at the same time also has low freeness, high and low temperature resistance and weather aging resistance. It can be widely applied to contact surfaces between heating elements (power tubes, silicon controlled rectifiers, electric heating stacks, etc.) and heat dissipation facilities (radiating fins, radiating strips, shells, etc.) in various electronic and electrical equipment, and plays the role of heat transfer medium and has the performances of moisture prevention, dust prevention, corrosion prevention, etc. It is also suitable for the surface coating of microwave devices such as microwave communication, microwave transmission equipment, microwave special power supply, stabilized voltage power supply, etc. This kind of silicon material provides a heat conducting effect to the electronic components that generate heat. For example, transistors, CPU assembly, thermistors, temperature sensors, automotive electronic components, automotive refrigerators, power modules, printers, etc.
