Arctic Silver Alumina

Arctic Alumina Thermal Compound is a ceramic, polysynthetic thermal paste designed for use between modern high-performance CPUs and high-performance heatsinks or water coolers. It contains no metal or other electrically conductive materials and is a pure electrical insulator, being neither electrically conductive nor capacitive. Arctic Alumina utilizes a layered composite of three unique shapes and sizes of ceramic particles to maximize the contact area between the particles and enhance heat transfer. This exclusive combination delivers performance that surpasses most metal-based compounds. Arctic Alumina contains no silicone. The suspension fluid is a proprietary blend of advanced polysynthetic oils that work together to provide three distinct functional phases. As it comes from the syringe, the consistency of Arctic Alumina is designed for easy application in a thin, even layer. During the initial use of the CPU, the compound thins out to improve the filling of microscopic valleys and ensure the best physical contact between the heatsink and the CPU core. After that, the compound thickens over the next 50 to 200 hours to reach its final consistency, designed for long-term stability.
