Ventec Expands Thermal Interface Materials Range
August 29, 2019 | VentecEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Ventec International Group Co., Ltd., a world leader in the production of polyimide & high reliability epoxy laminates and prepregs and specialist provider of thermal management and IMS solutions, is pleased to announce the addition of two new thermally conductive thin isolation foil materials to its range of Thermal Interface Materials (TIM) under its distribution agreement with EMI Thermal.
Initially for the European market, Ventec teamed up with EMI Thermal to provide a range of Thermal Interface Materials (TIM) that are a perfect complement to Ventec’s IMS material families, thermally conductive and standard laminates and prepregs for multilayer PCB’s. The range of materials distributed through Ventec, which includes double sided thermal tape, electrical insulators, natural graphite and void fillers, has now been expanded with the addition of two new UL94 V-0-recognized thin isolation/thermal conductive foil materials.
T-P INS 2 and T-P INS 3 A0/A1 are high-performance electrically insulating, thermally conductive interface materials that offer thermal conductivity of 1.8-3W/mK. Further features include high tensile strength (≥0.8-1.0) designed to prevent cut through and electrical shorts, low thermal impedance (0.16˚C in2/W), no viscosity and a thickness of 0.18-0.30mm, making them the ideal material choice for access control, computer and network & communications applications including SMPS, telecom devices, visual devices, networking products, LCD-TV, notebook PC’s, PC’s, etc. Full material specifications can be found at http://www.ventec-group.com/products/thermal-interface-material/.
To offer even greater value to customers, Ventec continues to maintain and build upon its one-stop-service solution for PCB materials to the European PCB and electronics industry, by offering a range of third party products that complement its own extensive product range, including flexible laminates (ThinFlex/Arisawa) and a full range of PCB production consumable products covering standard and specialty (Centrum & Glossback) drill materials, copper foils including ACF.

Driving Innovation: Selecting the Right Laser Source
04/28/2026 | Simon Khesin -- Column: Driving InnovationWhen I first joined Schmoll Maschinen, I brought experience from almost every PCB process, except for laser. As I immersed myself in laser processing, I realized why it can seem so daunting to a newcomer. The complexity arises from three intersecting factors: A vast variety of laser sources: CO2, UV-nano, green-pico, UV-pico, IR-pico, and others; a diverse range of applications: Drilling, cutting, ablation, and more; and an extensive list of materials: These have vastly different absorption rates. Choosing the right machine or laser source is rarely trivial. Even for experienced engineers, answering "Which source is best?" requires examining the business's specific goals.
Institute of Circuit Technology Spring Seminar 2026: A Bright Future in Europe
04/23/2026 | Pete Starkey, I-Connect007Through the leafy lanes and spring flowers of Warwickshire and back to Meridan, the traditional centre of England, and now officially part of the Metropolitan Borough of Solihull in the county of the West Midlands, I attended the Annual General Meeting and Spring Seminar of the Institute of Circuit Technology (ICT) on April 14. Out of the AGM came notable changes in leadership at the top of the Institute: the retirement of Mat Beadel as chair and Emma Hudson as technical director. Effective May 1, Steve Driver is the new chair, and Alun Morgan is the new technical director.
ACCM Unveils Negative and Near-zero CTE Materials for Large-Format AI Chips
04/21/2026 | Advanced Chip and Circuit MaterialsAdvanced Chip and Circuit Materials, Inc. (ACCM) has launched two new materials: Celeritas HM50, with a negative coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of -8 ppm/°C to offset the positive CTE and expansion of copper with temperature on circuit boards, and Celeritas HM001, with near-zero CTE and the low-loss performance needed for high-speed signal layers to 224 Gb/s and faster in artificial intelligence (AI) circuits.
Fresh PCB Concepts: Designing PCBs for Harsh Environments—Reliability Is Engineered Upstream
04/23/2026 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsWhen engineers hear the phrase “harsh environment,” they usually think of the extreme temperature swings, vibration and shock, pressure changes, or radiation in aerospace. However, aerospace is not the only harsh environment where electronic assemblies must survive. Automotive power electronics, downhole oil and gas tools, marine controls, rail systems, defense platforms, and industrial automation equipment all expose PCBs to environments that are equally unforgiving. The stress mechanisms may differ, but the physics does not.
Advanced Packaging for AI: Reliability Starts at the Cu/Cu/Cu Microvia Junction
04/20/2026 | Kuldip Johal, MKS' AtotechThe rapid growth of AI computing, from training clusters to inference at scale, is reshaping demand across the entire electronics supply chain. Advances in technology requirements, such as higher bandwidth, lower latency, and greater compute density, are driving the development of advanced packaging technologies and transforming the PCB industry across design, manufacturing, testing, and even architecture.
