How to choose thermal grease? Is the higher the heat dissipation, the better the quality?

The main raw material of thermal grease is organic silicone, and then some heat-resistant materials are added. This material will have slight oil separation during the use stage, as long as it is not too serious, it can be used with confidence. After using the thermal grease with serious oil separation for a period of time, the organic silicone content is low, cracks are prone to occur, and the heat dissipation performance is reduced.

How to choose thermal grease?

1. Look at the reputation. Users can consider the reputation when buying thermal grease. It is more reassuring to buy products with big brands and good reputations, such as TENSAN, which focuses on the research of thermal grease and provides customized thermal grease application solutions. It has a wide range of uses and can be applied to new energy, military, medical, aviation, shipbuilding, electronics, automobiles, instruments, power supplies, high-speed rail and other industries.

2. Look at the performance. High-quality thermal grease not only has good heat dissipation performance, but also has insulation, shockproof and moisture-proof properties. This type of thermal grease is safer to use in electrical appliances and is not prone to leakage, continuous electricity and other phenomena.

3. Look at the viscosity. Good quality thermal grease has a low viscosity and is a paste. It will not solidify during storage and use. Poor quality thermal grease has a thinner texture, poor adhesion after being applied to the substrate, low viscosity, easy to flow and produce fine cracks.

The higher the heat dissipation of thermal grease, the better the quality?

The quality of thermal grease, if divided according to heat dissipation performance, the higher the heat dissipation performance, the better the quality, and it can play a good heat dissipation effect when used in electrical appliances. If other factors are considered, the higher the heat dissipation performance does not mean the better quality. Some thermal grease raw materials contain silver powder components, which have good heat dissipation performance when used in electrical appliances, but this kind of thermal grease does not have good insulation and is easy to cause electric shock during use.

Thermal grease is also called thermal paste in some places. Different names are actually the same material. This material has no restrictions on the use field. As long as the electrical appliance needs to dissipate heat, it can be used. However, some thermal greases are more suitable for use in CPUs, and some are more suitable for use in household appliances. When purchasing, you need to pay attention to the use field.
