Current IssueFueling the Workforce Pipeline
We take a hard look at fueling the workforce pipeline, specifically at the early introduction of manufacturing concepts and business to young people in this issue of PCB007 Magazine.
Inner Layer Precision & Yields
In this issue, we examine the critical nature of building precisions into your inner layers and assessing their pass/fail status as early as possible. Whether it’s using automation to cut down on handling issues, identifying defects earlier, or replacing an old line...
Engineering Economics
The real cost to manufacture a PCB encompasses everything that goes into making the product: the materials and other value-added supplies, machine and personnel costs, and most importantly, your quality. A hard look at real costs seems wholly appropriate.

Henkel Expands BERGQUIST GAP PAD Portfolio
February 4, 2019 | HenkelEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Henkel Corporation has announced the addition of two ultra-low modulus BERGQUIST GAP PAD thermal interface materials (TIMs) to its award-winning line of high compliance thermal management products. BERGQUIST GAP PAD TGP 6000ULM and BERGQUIST GAP PAD TGP 7000ULM have been formulated with an advanced resin platform to deliver ultra-low modulus capabilities and high thermal conductivity of 6.0 W/m-K and 7.0 W/m-K, respectively.
“As densities increase with electronics miniaturization, maximizing heat dissipation while minimizing assembly stress on delicate components is challenging but essential for reliability,” says Danny Leong, Henkel Global Technology Manager, Thermal Products. “Our new ultra-low modulus TIMs provide this unique performance combination in custom-sized pads with easy handling to enhance process efficiency.”
BERGQUIST GAP PAD TGP 6000ULM and BERGQUIST GAP PAD TGP 7000ULM are very soft pads with high conformability to rough or irregular surfaces, effectively filling intricate gaps and allowing for thorough wet out at the interface for maximum thermal transfer. Historically, marrying ultra-low modulus (Shore 000, ASTM D2240) properties with high thermal conductivity has been challenging at best. However, due to the advanced silicone-based resin formulation and filler package, the new BERGQUIST GAP PADs provide exceptionally low assembly stress alongside high thermal control.
