Abstract:
A method for providing a thermal interface material to an electronic component assembly, comprising the following steps:a) providing a heat generating electronic component with a first mounting surface; b) providing a second mounting surface on a heat dissipating component upon which the first mounting surface of the heat generating electronic component is to be mounted; and c) disposing dry thermal grease between the first mounting surface of the heat generating electronic component and the second mounting surface of the heat dissipating component to effectuate heat transfer therebetween, wherein the dry thermal grease includes a heat sink compound pre-blend made up of Polyol Ester and an Antioxidant, high viscosity oil, Zinc Oxide Powder as a filler, polyglycolether as a surfactant, a Polystyrene based polymer, and Naptha as a solvent.
