Blue Ice™ Series
Non Silicone Thermal Compounds
Blue Ice Series are unique synthetic thermal greases engineered to provide low bleed and oil migration (Pump Out) to prevent component contamination associated with silicone greases. They offer superior thermal conductivity and low thermal resistance with long term stability.
Why Non Silicone preferred over Silicone thermal greases?
| SILICONE | NON-SILICONE |
| Low Surface Tension causes oil separation, bleed. and pump out which leads to contamination and premature failure | Synthetic fluids. high surface tension keeps oil and fillers together |
| Several thermal cycles causes dry out, and interface film cracking resulting in a loss of thermal conduction | Formulated with special binding agents, no oil separation. stays put, dissipates the heat efficiently |
| Increased temperatures volatilizes silicone fluids and forms silicone dioxide—an electrical insulator causing defective contacts in motors, relays, and switches | Synthetic fluids volatilizes clean |
| Silicone fluids will contaminate solder bath in reflow process | No contaminations: compatible with solder bath chemicals |
