Kent Manufacturing is now integrated with Sur-Seal
Neograf eGraf Spreadershield
Spreadershield has a unique feature set compared to other thermal interface materials as it distributes heat through-plane and in-plane thus allowing it to move heat away from critical components faster. This unique, patented solution takes advantage graphite’s anisotropic thermal properties to both shield heat from sensitive areas and distribute heat evenly to eliminate hot spots in LED lighting and more.
Compared to aluminum and copper, Spreadershield provides superior heat spreading and thermal management for a wide range of electronics applications, from the thinnest and lightest weight to high power devices. Spreadershield products function as both a passive heat spreader and heat shield.
