Insulation sealing thermal silicone - thermal conductivity 1.2- How often to change the heat dissipation silicone

How often do you change the cooling silicone

Under normal circumstances, when the cooling silicone is not loose, it can be replaced once every 2-3 years. However, if the computer has not changed the thermal grease for a long time, after removing the radiator, the radiator base and the chip surface will remain old silicone grease, generally these silicone grease has been denatured and hard, and they must be removed before applying new silicone grease. You are advised to apply it on one side of the CPU. It can be slightly thicker.

Thermal silicone is a material used for heat dissipation, and its main role is to fill the gap between the radiator and the processor to improve the heat dissipation effect. Under normal circumstances, the cooling silicone does not need to be replaced regularly, as long as the good heat dissipation effect is maintained.

However, if you find that the cooling silicone appears aging, dry or begins to fall off, you need to consider replacing the cooling silicone. In addition, if you replace the processor or heat sink, you should also re-use the new heat dissipation silicone to ensure the heat dissipation effect.

In general, there is no clear fixed time for the replacement frequency of thermal silicone, which needs to be determined according to the specific situation. If you are worried about whether your cooling silicone needs to be replaced, you can check regularly and judge according to the actual situation. If necessary, you can consult a professional or refer to the relevant user manual for more accurate advice.

Insulating sealing thermal silicone

Thermal insulating silica gel is a special thermal conductive material, which has the dual characteristics of thermal conductivity and insulation properties. It can be used to fill the gap between components such as electronic devices, radiators and cooling modules to achieve thermal conductivity and insulation purposes.

Insulating sealing thermal silica gel is generally composed of silica gel and filler, and the filler is usually a material with good thermal conductivity, such as aluminum powder or ceramic particles. These fillings can improve thermal conductivity, and the insulating properties of silica gel can prevent the flow of current to ensure the safe operation of the device.

When using insulated sealing thermal gel, clean the surface to be coated to ensure that it is clean and dust-free. Then, evenly apply thermal silica gel to the gap to be filled so that it is in full contact with the surface. Finally, install the component to be filled and apply appropriate pressure to ensure that the cooling silicone can fully fill the gap.

It should be noted that different insulating sealing thermal silicone has different requirements and performance characteristics, so when selecting and using, please refer to the product manual or consult professionals to ensure the use effect and safety.
