Micro Porous Ceramic Heat Sinks Enhance Heat Dissipation
AMEC Thermasol has introduced a new range of Micro Porous Ceramic Heat Sinks (MPCHS). Due to the open irregular structure of the Micro Porous Ceramic, the heat sinks provide a greater surface area to contact with the air compared to metal. Due to this structure, the heat sinks have excellent heat dissipation and heat convection properties. The MPCHS dissipates heat faster than … [Read more...]
