Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a curable composition and an article.
  • a thermally conductive material (may also be referred to as thermal dissipation material) called a thermal interface material (TIM) is a material provided between a heat source and a thermal dissipation member such as a heat sink, and the thermally conductive material reduces the heat resistance between the heat source and the thermal dissipation member and promotes thermal conduction from the heat source. Since the heat generated from the heat source is efficiently conducted to a cooling member via the TIM, the heat is easily dissipated from the thermal dissipation member.

  • Liquid dripping or the pump-out phenomenon generates voids between the grease and the member, decreases the adhesiveness of the grease to the member, and causes an increase in heat resistance between the thermal dissipation grease and the member. Due to liquid dripping or the pump-out phenomenon, other members may be contaminated by the grease, and insulation failure may occur.
