  • Patent number: 6901997
    Abstract: A thermal interface wafer for facilitating heat transfer from an electronic component to a heat sink. The wafer is formed from at least one elongate, vertically-oriented strip of thermally conductive material having a layer of conformable, heat-conducting material formed thereon. Preferably, the substrate comprises a metal foil, such as aluminum or some other thermally-conductive metal, that is formed as a flat, spiral-like coil. Such strip may further be configured to have a serpentine configuration, or may alternatively be formed from a multiplicity of strips. The present invention further provides for methods of transferring heat from an electronic component to a heat sink, as well as methods for fabricating the thermal interface wafers of the present invention.

  • Publication number: 20040116547
    Abstract: The present invention relates to dual curing silicone compositions which are capable of crosslinking when subjected to actinic radiation and/or heat. The compositions contain a reactive organopolysiloxane having a function group selected from the group consisting of (meth)acrylate, carboxylate, maleate, cinnamate and combinations thereof; a silicon hydride crosslinker; an organo-metallic hydrosilation catalyst; and a photoinitiator. These compositions can be cured to relatively thick films using UV light due to the presence of the specific olefinic unsaturated groups, and can also be partially or fully cured at room temperature or under thermal exposure. These compositions are particularly useful as conformal coatings, and in particular as coatings in electronic applications.

  • Publication number: 20040082724
    Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there are provided novel heterobifunctional monomers and users for the same. Invention compounds have many of the properties required by the microelectronics industry, such as, for example, hydrophobicity, high Tg values, low dielectric constant, ionic purity, low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), and the like. These properties result in a thermoset that is particularly well suited to high performance applications where typical operating temperatures are often significantly higher than those at which prior art materials were suitable. Invention compounds are particularly ideal for use in the manufacture of electronic components, such as, for example, printed circuit boards, and the like.

  • Publication number: 20040077783
    Abstract: This invention relates to (meth)acrylate based polymerizable compositions and adhesive systems prepared therefrom, which include an initiator system comprising a complex of an organoborane with a complexing agent, an aziridine-containing compound, and a carrier material with which the initiator system is unreactive and which renders the composition having a flash point above 140° F. The inventive compositions desirably have a flash point above 200° F., for each of the parts of the adhesive system. To achieve the physical properties of the inventive compositions and adhesive systems, it is desirable for the carrier material to have such flash points; however, provided that in their entirety the inventive compositions and adhesive systems have such flash points, it is not necessary for the carrier material itself to have such flash points. The inventive compositions and adhesive systems also include a package for controlling the rate of cure and indicating the extent of cure.

  • Publication number: 20040063840
    Abstract: A molding compound is provided for use in encapsulating electronic packages which include an optoelectronic component, such as an LED. The molding compound includes a partially cured epoxy composition, an antioxidant, and, optionally, a phosphor material substantially uniformly distributed throughout the epoxy composition. The optional phosphor material may be suspended within the epoxy composition by pre-reacting a portion of the epoxy composition prior to B-staging of the molding compound. As such, the optional phosphor material is suspended within the epoxy composition, thereby preventing settling of the phosphor material during B-staging, as well as during curing of the molding compound in the encapsulation process.
