Thin Thermal Pad to Increase Thermal Conductivity (+500C temp)
Thin Thermal Pad to Increase Thermal Conductivity (+500C temp)
(OP)
High all,
I need to increase thermal conductivity between Steel and Aluminum plates at +500C temps, using a thing semi-flexible sheet without gluing it to the surfaces of the metal plates.
Is there anything that can fit this problem?
Thanks,
SD

the melting point of pure Al is 660C, and it readily oxidizes,
you need to consider alternatives

I have used both MgO and BN for high temp heat transfer and they work fairly well.
At your temps a silicone or Krytox grease loaded with a high heat transfer filler would do the trick.

Interesting stuff, looks much easier to use than a thermal grease, do you know how well it handles differential thermal expansion?

If that dosen't go hot enough then look at straight hexBN.

Wouldnt know details, maybe write to the supplier. All I know is that there are compact heat exchangers made out of graphite.
