Thermally Conductive Polymers
The Challenge
Metal heat exchangers have long been the standard for thermal management, but they come with significant limitations. While they transfer heat efficiently, these traditional materials:
- Are heavy, adding unnecessary weight.
- Have high embodied carbon, contributing to environmental concerns.
- Lack versatility in design.
- Offer no corrosion resistance, leading to potential durability issues.
Although Thermally Conductive Polymers (TCPs) on the market attempt to address these problems, they often fall short, being:
- Brittle, making them prone to cracking.
- Offering low thermal conductivity, limiting their effectiveness.
- Unable to be mass-produced efficiently.
Our Solution
Senergy's patent-pending thermally conductive polymers are designed to overcome these challenges. Our innovative materials provide:
- Excellent thermal conductivity, rivaling that of metals.
- Scalability through injection moulding, profile extrusion, and thermoforming, making them ideal for mass production.
- Flexibility and durability, eliminating the brittleness seen in other TCPs.
By replacing aluminium with Senergy's TCPs, you can achieve:
- 30-45% reduction in weight.
- 500% lower CO₂ equivalent per product.
- 30% faster assembly times.
Senergy’s TCPs deliver performance, sustainability, and efficiency for the next generation of heat exchangers and thermal solutions.
