Abstract: Some implementations of the disclosure are directed to a thermal interface material. In some implementations, a method comprises: applying a solder paste between a surface of a heat generating device and a surface of a heat transferring device to form an assembly; and reflow soldering the assembly to form a solder composite, wherein the solder composite provides a thermal interface between the heat generating device and the heat transferring device, wherein the solder paste comprises: a solder powder; particles having a higher melting temperature than a soldering temperature of the solder paste, wherein the solder paste has a volume ratio of solder powder to high melting temperature particles between 5:1 and 1:1.5; and flux.

Abstract: Varnish compositions and prepregs and laminates made therefrom wherein the varnish compositions include at least one first epoxy resin and at least one second epoxy resin that includes a bisphenol-A novolac epoxy resin and a harder wherein the at least one first epoxy resin and the at least one second bisphenol-A novolac epoxy resin are present in the varnish at a weight ratio ranging from about 1:1 to about 1:3.

Abstract: Flame retardant compositions that are halogen-free or substantially halogen-free are disclosed. In certain examples, the compositions comprise a halogen-free or substantially halogen-free epoxide and one or more phosphorated compounds. In some examples, the phosphorated compound comprises an average particle size less than 10 microns. In other examples, the phosphorated compound provides a surface area of 78.5 ?m2 to about 1965 ?m2. Prepregs, laminates, molded articles and printed circuit boards using the compositions are also disclosed.
