Pocofoam® Graphite

Created through a partnership with Oakridge National Labs, Pocofoam® graphite foam was developed to create unidirectional heat. This grade has low density and high porosity to handle speed-of-heat transfer.

  • Highly controlled microstructure provides reliable product performance
  • Unilateral thermal conductivity funnels heat from sensitive elctronics
  • Radiofrequency shielding reduces outside interference from readings
  • High purity maintains process integrity
  • Chemically inert material properties keep material from reacting to most acids or organic solvents 
  • Read More Read Less
