What Does Thermal Compound Mean?
Thermal compound is a very high-heat conductive adhesive used in high-performance electronic equipment in order to improve heat conduction. The thermal compound helps in filling microscopic gaps, especially on heat sinks, which trap air in them, thus increasing the heat conduction. By helping to provide a reliable and long-lasting interface through efficient heat management, the thermal compound also ensures better and longer performance of an electronic equipment.
