In mission-critical applications, thermal performance isn’t optional—it’s the difference between uptime and failure. When typical overseas-sourced thermal interface materials (TIMs) fall short—whether due to inconsistent performance, low conductivity, or poor manufacturability—Matrix Technology delivers the proven alternative.
With over 40 years of expertise, Matrix offers the most comprehensive, technically verified selection of TIMs on the market—ready to outperform in the toughest environments on Earth… and beyond.
Engineered for Extremes: High-Performance TIMs You Can Trust
When your application pushes the boundaries of power density, heat flux, or environmental exposure, you need more than just a datasheet—you need proof. That’s why our TIMs are backed by independent testing, confirming performance across variables like:
- Thermal conductivity: Up to 13 W/m·K+ with tested reliability
- Mechanical integrity: Maintains bond lines in vibration, shock, and cycling
- Dielectric strength: For high-voltage and RF-sensitive modules
- Low outgassing and low bleed: Ideal for aerospace and vacuum environments
Different Missions, Different Thermal Challenges
No two thermal management problems are the same—and we’ve helped engineers solve thousands. Our application-specific TIMs are engineered for:
Aerospace & Spaceflight
- Outgassing-compliant thermal pads and phase change materials
- Wide thermal range (-60°C to +200°C) for orbital cycling
- Ultra-lightweight graphite-based TIMs for weight-sensitive payloads
Defense & Military
- Rugged TIMs for shock, vibration, and continuous thermal load
- Electrically insulating gap pads for radar and comms hardware
- RoHS/REACH compliant materials for NATO procurement standards
Avionics & Aerospace Electronics
- Conformable materials for uneven surfaces and complex geometries
- High voltage isolation for power conversion modules
- Long lifecycle TIMs for zero-maintenance platforms
AI & Edge Computing
- Ultra-high thermal conductivity materials for GPUs and ASICs
- Custom die-cut and kiss-cut shapes for system integrators
- TIMs designed for small form factor enclosures with high watt density
Not Just the Right Material—The Right Format, Ready to Install
Picking the right material is only the start. Matrix also provides in-house converting capabilities, ensuring that your TIM arrives as a:
- Custom die-cut pad
- Roll-form for high-speed assembly
- Kiss-cut sheet for manual or automated application
- Laminated stack for multi-material solutions
Our converting precision ensures a perfect fit, reduces waste, and eliminates variability on the production floor.
