Gap Filler 1000 (Two-Part)
September 2013
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Thermally Conductive, Liquid Gap
Filling Material
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• Thermal conductivity: 1.0 W/m-K
• Ultra-conforming, designed for fragile
and low-stress applications
• Ambient and accelerated cure schedules
• 100% solids – no cure by-products
• Excellent low and high temperature
mechanical and chemical stability
Gap Filler 1000 is a thermally conductive,
liquid gap filling material. It is supplied as
a two-component, room or elevated
temperature curing system. The
material is formulated to provide a balance
of cured material properties highlighted by
a low modulus and good compression set
(memory). The result is a soft, thermally
conductive, form-in-place elastomer ideal
for coupling “hot” electronic components
mounted on PC boards with an adjacent
metal case or heat sink. Before cure,
Gap Filler 1000 flows under pressure like
a grease. After cure, it does not pump from
the interface as a result of thermal cycling.
Unlike thermal grease, the cured product
is dry to the touch. Unlike cured gap filling
materials, the liquid approach offers infinite
thickness with little or no stress during
displacement and eliminates the need for
specific pad thickness and die-cut shapes
for individual applications. Gap Filler 1000
is intended for use in thermal interface
applications when a strong structural bond
is not required.
