Thermal paste: heat dissipation solutions

Thermal paste is an essential solution for ensuring a Optimal heat transfer between electronic components and dissipation systems. In an industrial context marked by miniaturisation and increased power, it makes it possible to guarantee the Reliability, performance and lifespan of equipment.

Used as a thermal interface, it improves contact between surfaces by filling micro-irregularities, thereby limiting thermal losses.

At ADDEV Materials, we support manufacturers in the selection and integration of thermal pastes suited to their technical constraints, in order to optimise the thermal management of their systems.

Thermal paste for industrial applications

In an industrial environment, thermal paste is used to:

  • dissipate heat from electronic components
  • improve the thermal performance of systems
  • prevent overheating
  • extend the lifespan of equipment

It is particularly used in high power density systems.

Thermal paste is distinguished by:

  • an excellent ability to adapt to surfaces
  • very low thermal contact resistance
  • a flexible application

It is preferred where surfaces have significant irregularities.

What is thermal paste

thermal paste, also known as Thermal paste, is a thermally conductive material used to improve heat transfer between two surfaces in contact.

It is characterised by :

  • a Good thermal conductivity
  • a ability to fill micro-unevenness
  • a thermal resistance reduction
  • a adaptability to uneven surfaces

It allows thermal performance to be optimised without altering the mechanical design of the systems.

Thermal paste vs. other solutions: What's the difference?

Thermal paste is characterised by its ability to optimise thermal contact between surfaces.

Thermal paste vs thermal pad

  • thermal paste → excellent adaptation to irregular surfaces
  • thermal pad → simpler solution to integrate, but less precise

Thermal paste vs. thermal gel

  • thermal paste → better stability and performance
  • thermal gel → more flexible but less powerful

Thermal paste vs thermal pad

  • thermal paste → better contact conductivity
  • heat film → more rigid, less adaptable

In a nutshell

  • Choose one thermal paste to maximise heat transfer
  • Prioritise a thermal pad for simpler industrial integration
