HTCX (Heat Transfer Compound Xtra) silicone-free thermal paste includes a dispersant in the formulation that reportedly increases thermally conductivity without increasing film thickness. Is smoother and provides higher thermal conductivity, lower oil bleed and lower evaporation weight loss. Is said to be humidity- and thermal cycling-resistant. For thermal coupling electrical and electronic components, and between surfaces for thermal conductivity and heat dissipation.
