What is the thixotropy of thermal grease?
Date:2020-02-27
A:
For heat conductive silicone grease, thixotropy means that when an external force is applied, the flow of silicone grease gradually softens, showing a decrease in viscosity, but once at rest, after a period of time (very short), the consistency increases again (recovery ), That is, the nature of change. This property of thermal grease is that when you put it there, it doesn't flow, and when you apply it, it is easy. Liat's thermally conductive silicone grease has good thixotropy, so that it cannot be easily squeezed out by small air bubbles when used for thermal conduction at the interface.
