  • Thermally and electrically conductive caulk
    Patent number: 5430085
    Abstract: A thermally and electrically conductive caulk having a resin is mixed with a filler mixture which includes 80% by weight large thermally and electrically conductive particles having a particle size within a range of about 300-325 microns, 10% by weight fine thermally and electrically conductive particles having a particle size within a range of about 75-80 microns, and 10% by weight thermally and electrically conductive fibers having a length within a range of about 0.020-0.025 inches. The percentage by weight of filler mixture to resin is optimized such that thermal and electrical conductivity is maximized, while still maintaining desired mechanical properties of the caulk once cured. Preferably, the thermally and electrically conductive particles and fibers are made of carbon.
