Dry metal joints touch only at asperities. LXPCM phase change thermal pads place as solid pads, then soften at 45 to 55°C to wet the interface and expel air, with 0.08 °C·in²/W impedance.

H-GT-WH fiberglass thermal conductive tape is 0.095 mm thick in total and lists a 5 kV withstand voltage and 0.35 W/(m·K) thermal conductivity for insulating power and LED modules from their heat sinks.
Before comparing phase change thermal pad data, align pressure, thickness, reported property, and contact-surface conditions, then evaluate interface filling in the total resistance path.
When LED modules and power conversion units run hotter than simulated, the interface is often the cause rather than the heat sink. This article uses published specifications and ASTM D5470-17 to explain the role of a 0.095 mm tape in the heat path.
