The TIM world is like the big bang.. It moves, and expands faster than ever. The reasoning for this is the fact that clock rates continue to expand and move even more rapidly. In this world, graphite thermal material is a TIM of choice because of a few features....

It is often known that a lot of the silicone foams, and silicone sponges that NEDC converts into gaskets are flame retardant. Recently, we did a blog on flame retardant silicone foam/sponge materials. Most gasketing materials are decently fire retardant- however the...
