Silicones for Information and Communication Technology (ICT)

Continued advances in telecommunications and the proliferation of new base stations are resulting in increased data loads at higher speeds. These developments have contributed to the use of high-power processors and increased chipset density. As a result, there is a growing need for improved thermal management solutions to handle the higher thermal loads while ensuring long-term reliability of components. With these customer needs in mind, Momentive offers a range of thermal solutions in various form factors specifically designed for modern base stations.

With more power than ever in our pockets, the latest generation of smartphones faces significant challenges to meet customer expectations. Thermal management surrounding key components (processor; battery) are critical for peak performance and for a long device lifespan. Similarly, sealing solutions that can keep out water and moisture are equally essential in today’s consumer handsets. Momentive Performance Materials has developed leading-edge silicone technologies that are helping its customers meet performance and productivity challenges in a wide range of smartphone applications.
