Patent ID: 8377557

Claim:
A thermally conductive sheet composite, comprising: a gelatinous thermally conductive sheet molded of a thermally conductive polymer composition containing a polymeric material and a thermally conductive filler; and a release sheet molded separately from the thermally conductive sheet and peelably laminated on at least one surface of a pair of surfaces of the thermally conductive sheet, wherein the release sheet has a hardness of 30 or more as measured by a type A durometer in conformity with ISO 7619, wherein the release sheet is formed of a sheet material containing a base material comprising an elastic material and a brittle imparting material to make the base material brittle, and wherein the thermally conductive sheet composite is formed in such a manner that the thermally conductive sheet is cut together with the release sheet using a cutting device, wherein the brittle imparting material comprises inorganic particles or organic particles, and wherein the particle diameter of the brittle imparting material is in the range of 12 μm to 50 μm.
