SpreaderShield™ flexible graphite delivers high-performance thermal management for space and aerospace platforms by combining superior in-plane thermal conductivity (up to 1,600 W/m·K for synthetic graphite) with an ultra-lightweight design that is 30% lighter than aluminum and 80% lighter than copper. Its anisotropic thermal properties, with ratios up to 300:1, allow rapid heat spreading across sensitive satellite and avionics systems, helping to reduce thermal gradients and protect components from heat-related failures and propagation risks.
SpreaderShield graphite sheets are available in thicknesses as low as 17 μm, making them ideal for compact, mass-sensitive space architectures while supporting straightforward die-cutting and integration into complex assemblies. This unique combination of performance and ease of use makes SpreaderShield graphite the solution of choice for engineers seeking scalable, lightweight, and robust thermal protection in both satellites and advanced aerospace systems.
