The importance of having an in-house toolroom is highlighted when working with some thermally conductive additives such as Aluminosilicate.
Just 4kg of thermally conductive compound destroyed the rotary and bed knife of our Thermo Fisher lab pelletiser... 2 hours later it's been sharpened and is back in action!
Thermally conductive Aluminosilicate isn't something we've trialled before and it's not something we'll be putting through our extruder again, maybe it can be mixed into a silicone to make that thermally conductive? Watch this space.
What's the most aggressive material you've put into a compound?
