Once you have a good understanding of thermally conductive silicone grease, you want to put it into use. If you want to make this adhesive play a major role, you need to find the correct application method. At present, there are various methods of applying thermal conductive silicone grease, so you can choose the more practical technique at your discretion.
How to apply thermal conductive silicone grease correctly?
1, will be lint-free cloth dipped in acetone to clean the surface of the CPU as well as the bottom of the heatsink, do not use your hands to touch directly.
2, determine the area to be coated, squeeze the right amount of thermal grease in the middle position.
3, wear a finger cover to press back and forth until the thermal grease is evenly distributed in the coated area. Pressing can follow the clockwise or counterclockwise direction to move, which helps to apply large and small gaps.
4. Wipe the excess adhesive clean and observe whether the color of the entire area is consistent. If the painted area is not quite the same color as the rest, it means the gap has been filled intact and can be put into use.
What other application methods are there?
When applying thermal conductive silicone grease, you can use a squeegee. Start from one corner until the whole area is coated. You can also squeeze the adhesive in the central position and squeeze it around by pressure until the layer becomes light and even.
What do I need to pay attention to when applying thermal conductive silicone grease?
No matter which method you use, you should pay attention to the thickness of the adhesive layer, which is the thickness of ordinary paper and should not be too thick.
In many environments, thermally conductive silicone grease has an important role. Get the right application method and go for a quick application according to the specific situation. This adhesive will not cure and can perform the heat dissipation function after applying evenly. Once it cures or dries out, you need to replace it with a new one in time to avoid affecting normal use.
