1. Product Overview

CoolTherm® SC-3500 is a two-component, thermally conductive silicone gap filler designed for electronic applications requiring efficient heat transfer. It combines high thermal conductivity with low volatility, minimal stress during cure, and excellent environmental resistance. Based on an addition-curing polydimethylsiloxane polymer, it remains stable under heat and confined conditions. The material is UL 94 V-0 rated, ensuring strong flame retardancy, and is suitable for long-term reliability in electronic assemblies.


2. Applications

  • Filling gaps in electronic assemblies to enhance heat dissipation.

  • Ideal for sensitive components requiring low stress and low shrinkage during cure.

  • Applied with handheld cartridges or automated meter/mix/dispense systems.

  • Suitable for room temperature cure (24 h at 25°C) or accelerated cure (60 min at 80°C).

  • Designed for use in environments demanding flame resistance, low outgassing, and strong durability.
