What are the types of thermal pads?

Thermal pads come in various types, each designed for specific applications:

Silicone Thermal Pads: These are versatile and commonly used for thermal management in electronics due to their flexibility and good thermal conductivity.

Graphite Thermal Pads: Made from graphite particles, these pads offer efficient heat transfer and are often used in high-performance electronics and CPUs.

Phase Change Thermal Pads: These pads change phase (solid to liquid) with temperature, ensuring tight contact and efficient heat transfer between components.

Thermal Gap Fillers: Designed to fill air gaps between uneven surfaces, these pads ensure complete contact and reduce thermal resistance effectively.

Thermal Adhesive Pads: These pads combine thermal conductivity with adhesive properties, making them suitable for permanent attachment and thermal management.

Choosing the right type depends on factors like application, thermal conductivity requirements, and specific conditions of use.
