Host:        MIT Lincoln Laboratory


Epoxy Technology has investigated the mechanism of thermal conductivity in electrically conductive adhesives. Utilizing laser flash testing and SEM cross sections, we determined how silver flake distribution effects thermal conductivity. Cure, interface, and processing play a significant role in thermal management. This reviews a new laser flash sample preparation methodology that provides more accurate measurement of “in-design” thermal resistance.
