Ken, I am investigating the use of a thermally conductive, electrically insulating adhesive material to bond a pwb to an aluminum plate. I have tried the Arlon Thermabond adhesive and would like to talk to you more on this subject. Either contact me off-line or at (216)995-1195 x3058. I would appreciate it.

The adhesive system has to be thermally conductive, electrically insulating, and capable of "decoupling" the CTE mismatch between the PCB and heatsink . We currently are using Arlon's Thermabond(TM) and laminate after assembly. Are there any recommendations for alternates?
