  • Publication number: 20230416584
    Abstract: Provided is a thermally conductive member having both high thermal conductivity and low hardness. A thermally conductive member is a laminate provided with a plurality of layers including a first layer and a second layer stacked in contact with each other. The first layer is formed of a first thermally conductive composition containing at least a first acrylic binder, a first thermally conductive filler, and a dispersant. The dispersant contains at least one of a linear polyester having a weight-average molecular weight from 1000 to 2500 and having phosphoric acid at a terminal and a polyester-polyether copolymer having a weight-average molecular weight from 1000 to 2500 and having phosphoric acid at a terminal.

  • Patent number: 11511904
    Abstract: To provide a sticking apparatus capable of suppressing turning-up of an end of a sticking body. A sticking apparatus extrudes a sticking body from a tip in a protruding direction of a head member while moving the tip in a protruding direction of the head member along a target range, and sticks the sticking body to the target range. Extrusion speed of the sticking body becomes smaller than movement speed of the head member from a start of sticking of the sticking body with respect to the target range to a first time point, extrusion speed of the sticking body becomes larger than movement speed of the head member from the first time point to a second time point, and extrusion speed of the sticking body becomes smaller than movement speed of the head member from the second time point to sticking completion of the sticking body with respect to the target range.

  • Publication number: 20220162027
    Abstract: Provided is a sticking body holding member capable of suppressing generation of slack in a carrier tape without excessively strong winding of the carrier tape. A sticking body holding member includes a plurality of sticking bodies, a carrier tape, and a reel. The sticking bodies are each configured to have a planar shape, and each include a first surface being an adhesive surface that is stickable with respect to an adherend. In the carrier tape, the plurality of sticking bodies are stuck and arranged in a line. The carrier tape is wound around the reel. A second surface of the sticking body is provided with an adhesive region having adhesiveness and an adhesion suppressing region where adhesiveness is suppressed, and the second surface of the sticking body is configured to have weaker adhesiveness than adhesiveness of the first surface.

  • Publication number: 20200354619
    Abstract: A thermally conductive elastomer composition of the present technology contains 100 parts by mass of a styrene-based elastomer, from 400 to 540 parts by mass of a process oil formed of a petroleum-based hydrocarbon, from 950 to 1350 parts by mass of aluminum hydroxide having an average particle diameter from 3 ?m to 20 ?, and from 70 to 80 parts by mass of expanded graphite having an average particle diameter from 3 ?m to 20 ?m, where a difference between the average particle diameter of the aluminum hydroxide and the average particle diameter of the expanded graphite is within 5 ?m.
