Shin-Etsu Chemical Launches New Silicone Rubber Products

According to foreign media reports, Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd. announced the development of the thermal interface silicone rubber sheet "TC-BGI series", which can be used in electric vehicle parts. The new product "TC-BGI series" is a high-hardness thermal interface silicone rubber sheet realized by Shin-Etsu Chemical through its own technology, which has both high pressure resistance and thermal conductivity. The new product is available in 2 thicknesses, 0.2mm and 0.3mm.

The main features of this new product are as follows:

The industry's highest level of pressure resistance is achieved. This product can ensure the withstand voltage of 3kV with a thickness of 0.2mm, and the withstand voltage of 5kV on the entire surface of the sheet with a thickness of 0.3mm. In addition, Shin-Etsu Chemical is also developing new products that use a 0.2mm-thick sheet on the entire sheet surface to ensure a withstand voltage exceeding 4kV.

Has a high thermal conductivity of 7W/m·K.

High hardness, high strength, and the processability is better than the pad type.

Superior long-term reliability compared to non-silicone types.

Shin-Etsu Chemical has a very broad product line of various silicone thermal interface materials. In addition to silicone rubber sheets, the company also offers pads, greases (oil compounds), caulks, liquid rubbers (adhesives and potting materials) to meet the needs of various heat dissipation measures.
