Composite Materials in Part Form for Thermal Management in Electronics

Molybdenum-Copper Metal Matrix Composites (AMC Series)

Overview

These composites of molybdenum-copper and tungsten-copper have many applications in electronic devices. The excellent thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion makes them ideal for:

  • Chip mounting
  • Heat Sinks
  • Circuit Board Cores
  • Lids or covers
  • Thermal spreaders

The material can be machined into shapes and readily plated if required.

AMETEK’s wrought powder metallurgy composites have superior through-thickness thermal conductivity versus other products.
