Thermally conductive silicone film is one of the thermally conductive interface materials. With its excellent thermal conductivity, good insulation, excellent fire resistance, good buffering, controlled self-adhesion, thickness optionality, color adjustability, construction simplicity, and quality stability, it has become a high thermal conductivity medium material in the production of modern electronic products.

 Thermally conductive silicone film plays a good link between the heating body and heat sink air distance problem, with good thermal conductivity and high level of pressure resistance, its role is to fill between the heating body and heat sink, especially high performance components in high speed operation will generate a lot of heat, these heat must be removed immediately to ensure that the components can operate at normal operating temperature with maximum efficiency. It is then widely used in many high-end electronic products, such as: high-power LED lamps, automotive electronic modules, power supply modules, calculator applications (CPU, GPU, USICS, drivers), solar industry, backlight industry, etc.

The following Cushman & Wakefield Electronics uses 5 steps to give you an example of the installation steps of thermal conductive silicone film in electronic products.

1, keep the electronic parts and thermal conductive silicone sheet surface clean and clean, to avoid the existence of electronic parts surface dirt, the existence of any stains on the contact surface will lead to thermal conductive silicone film self-adhesive and sealing thermal conductivity will become poor.

2, pick up the thermal conductive silicone sheet, the area of the larger grasp the middle part, the area of the smaller sheet grasp is not required, because the large piece of thermal conductive silicone film is not evenly stressed, will lead to deformation, affecting the subsequent operation or even damage the silicone film.

3, left hand carry the thermal conductive silicon film, the right hand tear off one side of the protective film. Remember not to tear off both sides of the protective film at the same time, and reduce the number of direct contact with the thermal conductive silicone film as much as possible to ensure that the self-adhesive and thermal conductivity of the thermal conductive silicone film is not damaged.

4、Tear off one side of the protective film, first align the heat sink toward the electronic parts to be pasted, and slowly put down the thermal conductive silicone sheet, be careful to avoid the generation of air bubbles.

5、If air bubbles are generated during the operation, pull up one end of the silicone film and repeat the above steps, or borrow a hard plastic sheet to gently wipe away the air bubbles, the force should not be too large to avoid damage to the thermal conductive silicone film.
