A comparison between thermal silicon and thermal grease

Thermal silicon is generally called heat conduction RTV adhesive, which is cured at room temperature and has a certain adhesion performance. Thermal silicon is a kind of silicone rubber. If it is exposed to air, it will be cured and it will be very difficult to separate the bonded object.

Thermal grease is a kind of heat-conducting medium, which is based on organic silicone as raw materials. It has non-toxic, tasteless, non-corrosive, stable chemical and physical properties, excellent thermal conductivity, electrical insulation, high temperature resistance, and some other good characteristics.

Both Thermal silicon and thermal grease have thermal conductivity and insulation. And both of them are heat conduction interface materials.

There are also many differences between thermal silicon and thermal grease:

Thermal silicon has a certain adhesion, which is gradually solidified and plays a role in bonding. It is usually used in a one-time bonding occasion. It is convenient to use thermal silicon.

Thermal grease has higher thermal conductivity than thermal silicon. It has been used widely and almost can meet any cooling requirements.
