High Performance Fully Cured Dispensable Thin Bond Line Gel
Parker Chomerics THERM-A-GAP GEL 50TBL is a reworkable, high performance, one component, dispensable, thermal interface material with 5.0 W/m-K Bulk typical Thermal Conductivity. GEL 50TBL was developed to conduct heat away from electronics to a heat sink or enclosure at very thin bond lines. At minimum bond line thickness of 0.002” or 0.05mm, the Apparent Thermal Conductivity exceeds 11 W/m-K. The “TBL” suffix stands for Thin Bond Line, indicating that this material is meant for thin bond line applications. THERM-A-GAP GEL 50TBL requires no mixing or secondary curing and is designed for easy application and possible rework. THERM-A-GAP GEL 50TBL requires very low compressive force to conform under assembly pressure, thereby subjecting components, solder joints and leads to minimal stresses. This material is primarily designed for thin bond lines and is typically not intended to be used as a gap filler for gaps larger than .020 in (0.50mm) in electronics assemblies.
