For Immediate Release 

Resin Designs, a division of Chase Corporation, announces positive test results for their ThermoSink 35-6 thermally conductive electronics potting material. 

Recent independent testing has confirmed that ThermoSink 35-6 has met requirements under the testing protocol- 

ASTM E595-15 (2021), "Standard Test Method for Total Mass Loss and Collected Volatile Condensable Materials from Outgassing in a Vacuum Environment”

Results concluded that ThermoSink 35-6 produces a total mass loss of 0.18% under vacuum test conditions, well below the specification of 1% loss. As a result, Thermosink 35-6 is considered acceptable for use in high-demand aerospace applications where low outgassing standards are a requirement. 

ThermoSink consists of a number of products of various viscosities, hardness, and thermal characteristics. All products are two components (1:1 ratio mix) heavily filled silicone with high thermal conductivity. 

 

Advantages of ThermoSink Include- 

  • Soft for minimal stress on sensitive components 
  • High thermal conductivity of at least 3.4 W/mK 
  • Excellent flow for filling complex geometries  
  • Long gel time for ease of processing with heat-accelerated cure 
  • Excellent thermal and mechanical shock protection 

 

Applications and Industries of success Include- 

  • Low-outgassing aerospace applications 
  • EV battery and charging electronics 
  • High T environment automotive devices 
  • Protection of high heat generation integrated circuits
