Introducing Tgard™ TNC-6 Series Thermally Conductive Electrically Insulative Adhesive
Eliminate the use of mechanical fasteners during assembly, add valuable design space, and ensure high reliability paired with better thermal performance with the high-temperature Laird™ Tgard™ TNC-6 Series. This new thermally conductive, electrically insulative adhesive film ends the need to manually apply screws or clips during assembly and helps to lower total cost. Tgard™ TNC-6 is a thermally conductive heat-curable film adhering power transistors to heat sinks using low lamination pressure. With strong adhesion to the surfaces, Tgard™ TNC-6 contact resistance is lowered providing superior thermal transfer.
Transfer Heat with a Simple, Self-Adhesive Solution
Tgard™ TNC-6 offers low thermal resistance for design teams while its adhesive properties eliminate cumbersome application of mechanical fasteners. It is an ideal solution for thermal transfer in applications including automotive electronics, consumer electronics, datacom, switching mode power supplies, LED lighting, power converters / inverters, E-compressors, MOSFETs, discrete insulated-gate bipolar transistors, and on-board wireless chargers.
