Material Reduces Hot Spots In Consumer Products

Detailed as a natural graphite solution that distributes heat evenly in two dimensions, SpreaderShield is said to reduce hot spots while shielding components from heat sources in consumer electronics. The material targets space-limited products and may eliminate the need for other thermal management solutions, such as fans, heat sinks, and heat pipes. It comes in a wide range of thickness levels and can be combined with other materials that include metals and plastics to accommodate custom and/or esoteric designs.
