Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments are disclosed of thermal interface materials with reinforcement for abrasion resistance and/or suitable for use between sliding components.

Claim (Index 18):
The method of  claim 17 , wherein:\n providing the reinforcement comprises applying one or more strips of reinforcement material along one or more portions of the first component to thereby define the area along the first component generally between the one or more strips of reinforcement material; or. the thermal interface material is a first thermal interface material, and providing the reinforcement comprises applying one or more wall portions of a second thermal interface material along the first component to thereby define the area along the first component generally between the one or more wall portions of the second thermal interface material; or building up a dam of material harder than the thermal interface material along a surface of the first component to thereby define the area along the first component generally between one or more walls of the dam of material; or. providing the reinforcement comprises integrally forming a recess along the first component such that the recess has a depth to entirely or substantially confine the thermal interface material within the recess.
