SIGRATHERM® products for intelligent thermal management
Wherever heat or cold has to be managed or stored under extreme conditions within the vehicle, SGL Carbon’s SIGRATHERM products made of flexible graphite can provide solutions – due to their high thermal conductivity and their fast response characteristic compared to standard heat management systems. Graphite is suitable for heat and cold transport and dissipation as well as for heat and cold storage - without any additional energy required. This creates process reliability and at the same time saves CO2 emissions.
Components
SIGRATHERM® High-Density Flexible Graphite Foil
SGL Carbon’s SIGRATHERM high-density flexible graphite foil is made of high quality natural graphite without binders or fillers. It can be easily cut to shape, punched and even applied with an adhesive coating. Thus, it allows optimum from closure to other components or their surfaces. Excellent chemical and corrosion resistance as well as high temperature resistance and no aging behavior are additional advantages of this our sophisticated heat dissipation product.
