Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of chip thermal interface material technology, and relates to a thermally conductive phase change material and its preparation method and application, especially to an anti-pumping thermally conductive phase change material and its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the development of AI technology, the power consumption of AI chips has become increasingly higher. Ten years ago, the thermal design power (TDP) of top-tier GPUs was only 235W, but today this parameter has skyrocketed to 600W! This surge in TDP has led to a dramatic increase in chip heat generation. Simultaneously, another change is the increasing size of AI chips. Compared to 561mm² ten years ago, today's top-tier GPUs have reached an area of 3000mm². 2 Such a large surface area creates an extremely complex mechanical environment, making the chip itself more fragile and causing reliability issues with the thermal interface material. Currently, thermal grease and thermally conductive phase change materials are used as thermal interface materials for high-power chips. However, thermal grease, being a paste-like fluid, experiences pumping out when subjected to the pressure of a warped bare chip, causing a sharp increase in thermal resistance between the chip and the heatsink, severely impacting heat dissipation. Traditional thermally conductive phase change materials, when used in high-power, large-size chips, are also prone to pumping out during continuous high and low temperature cycling, leading to increased interface thermal resistance and affecting heat dissipation. Furthermore, traditional high thermal conductivity phase change materials are generally obtained by mixing paraffin, alkanes, coupling agents, and thermally conductive fillers, followed by a heating and calendering process. These high thermal conductivity phase change materials often use high thermal conductivity powders such as graphene, aluminum nitride, and boron nitride as thermally conductive fillers, resulting in relatively high material costs.
[0003] Therefore, finding a more suitable thermally conductive phase change material for chip thermal interface heat dissipation and solving the aforementioned technical problems of existing thermally conductive materials has become one of the urgent problems to be solved by many front-line researchers in the industry.

[0042] The present invention also provides the application of the thermally conductive phase change material described in any one of the above technical solutions or the thermally conductive phase change material prepared by any one of the above technical solutions in chip heat dissipation materials.
[0043] This invention provides a thermally conductive phase change material, comprising, by mass fraction of raw materials, 3-15 parts by weight of a special wax with a melting point of 30-80°C, 5-20 parts by weight of a polyolefin, 0.5-5 parts by weight of an antioxidant, 0.3-3 parts by weight of a dispersant, 0.1-1 parts by weight of a coupling agent, and 40-180 parts by weight of a thermally conductive filler; wherein the special wax with a melting point of 30-80°C includes alkyl polymethylsiloxane. Compared with existing technologies, this invention argues that while existing thermally conductive phase change materials exhibit good wettability and low thermal resistance under operating conditions, the short-chain structure of their matrix resin limits their long-term thermal stability and resistance to high and low temperature cycling. After repeated high and low temperature cycling, the matrix resin and thermally conductive filler are severely pumped out, resulting in unstable thermal conduction pathways and affecting heat transfer function. This leads to excessively high local temperatures in the thermal chip, causing chip damage. Furthermore, the thermally conductive fillers used in phase change materials generally have low particle sizes, with powders smaller than 2 micrometers easily agglomerating, especially nanofillers. Traditional processes mainly use planetary mixers for heating and stirring, with a maximum stirring rate of only 50 r / min. Therefore, nano-thermal conductive fillers often fail to disperse properly, leading to unstable product performance.
[0044] Based on this, this invention mainly addresses the poor anti-pumping performance of existing thermally conductive phase change materials. Furthermore, by optimizing cost control to achieve ideal results, a novel thermally conductive phase change material with a specific composition and ratio is designed. The high thermal conductivity and anti-pumping thermally conductive phase change material provided by this invention is obtained through a hot calendering process using a mixture of special wax, polyolefin, antioxidant, and modified thermally conductive filler. This process is environmentally friendly, efficient, and produces stable product performance. Moreover, the use of alumina, aluminum powder, and zinc oxide as the main fillers enhances the material's long-term thermal stability. Simultaneously, it avoids using high thermal conductivity powders as the main filler, resulting in lower raw material prices and a significant cost advantage.
[0045] This invention also provides a corresponding preparation method. The method involves first dispersing the nano-thermal conductive filler as a masterbatch using a homogenizer and high-speed stirring at 1500-2500 r / min. This masterbatch is then mixed with large-diameter particle powder and stirred in a planetary mixer. Finally, the product is obtained through a heated calendering process, resulting in more stable performance. The preparation method provided by this invention is simple, operates under mild conditions, and is easy to control, which is conducive to its promotion and application in large-scale industrial production.

[0144] The present invention provides an anti-pumping thermally conductive phase change material, its preparation method, and its application. The high thermal conductivity and anti-pumping thermally conductive phase change material provided by the present invention is obtained by mixing special wax, polyolefin, antioxidant, and modified thermally conductive filler through a heating and calendering process. This process is environmentally friendly, efficient, and produces a stable product. Furthermore, the use of alumina, aluminum powder, and zinc oxide as the main fillers enhances the long-term thermal stability of the material. Simultaneously, it avoids using high thermal conductivity powders as the main filler, resulting in lower raw material prices and a significant cost advantage.

The method involves first dispersing the nano-thermal conductive filler as a masterbatch using a homogenizer and high-speed stirring at 1500-2500 r / min. This masterbatch is then mixed with large-diameter particle powder and stirred in a planetary mixer. Finally, the product is obtained through a heated calendering process, resulting in more stable performance. The preparation method provided by this invention is simple, operates under mild conditions, and is easy to control, which is conducive to its promotion and application in large-scale industrial production.

[0282] Performance testing
[0283] Thermal resistance test: Used to evaluate the thermal properties of thermally conductive phase change materials. The thermal resistance of the thermally conductive phase change materials in Examples 1-8 was tested using an LW-9398 interfacial thermal resistance tester, according to ASTM D5470. The thickness of the thermally conductive phase change materials was 0.25 mm. The pressure applied to the thermal interface material was 40 PSI, the test time was 20 minutes, and the temperature was 80°C.
[0284] Thermal conductivity test: used to evaluate the viscosity of thermally conductive phase change materials. The thermal conductivity of thermally conductive phase change materials in Examples 1-8 was tested using a HOTDISK thermal constant analyzer. The test standard was ISO 22007-2, and the thickness of the thermally conductive phase change materials was 4 mm.
[0285] Pump-out test: Used to evaluate the reliability of thermally conductive phase change materials. The test fixture includes a 30*50mm bare chip and a 30*50mm aluminum heat sink. The thermally conductive phase change materials from Examples 1 to 8 are placed on the chip, and the heat sink is placed on top, applying a pressure of 14 psi to the chip. The assembled chip and heat sink fixture is subjected to a temperature cycle of -40 to 125°C, with a heating / cooling rate of 11°C / min, holding at -40°C and 125°C for 15 minutes each, for 1 hour per cycle, for a total of 350 cycles. After the test, the heat sink is removed, and the degradation of the thermally conductive phase change material morphology on both sides of the heat sink and chip assembly is inspected to calculate the pump-out ratio. Pump-out ratio = (pump-out area / chip area) × 100%.
[0286] See Table 1, which shows the statistical results of the test performance of Examples 1 to 9 of the present invention.
[0287] Table 1
[0288]
[0289] Table 1 shows that the thermally conductive phase change materials prepared in Examples 5 and 9 have low thermal resistance and low pumping rates. Comparing Example 5 and Example 6, the thermally conductive phase change material prepared in Example 5 has low thermal resistance and a low pumping rate. The thermally conductive phase change material prepared in Example 6 using a stirring method has high thermal resistance and a high pumping rate. This confirms that poor dispersion of small-particle thermally conductive fillers leads to increased thermal resistance and a higher pumping rate.
