DOWSIL™ TC-4551 CV is a two-part silicone-based thermally conductive gap filler with a thermal conductivity of 5.2 W/m·K. It cures at room temperature or with heat acceleration to form a soft, compressible elastomer that ensures reliable heat dissipation. The formulation provides long-term stability under thermal cycling up to 150°C, low volatility, and strong dielectric insulation. It maintains vertical position after curing, requires no post-cure, and is suitable for confined geometries without exothermal reaction. Designed for robust cooling in automotive and high-reliability electronics, it combines thermal management with vibration and stress relief.
Cooling solution for PCB-mounted automotive control units (engine, transmission modules)
Heat transfer from electronic modules to heat sinks or housings
Thermal interface in environments with high cycling stress and extended operating life
Situations demanding compressible, low-resistance gap fillers for stable long-term performance
