Indium to Spotlight Thermal Innovations Enabling Next-Generation AI Systems at Productronica China 2026

Estimated reading time: 2 minutes

As a proven leader in soldering materials and metal thermal interface materials (TIMs) solutions for future-forward technologies, Indium Corporation® will showcase its AI-enabling product portfolio at Productronica China, March 25-27, in Shanghai, China.

The company will feature the following products:

• Solder TIMs (sTIMs) deliver superior heat dissipation and high thermal conductance for power-dense devices exceeding 1,000 watts. Optimized for BGA package applications, they enable low-void, high-reliability performance across multiple reflow cycles, ensuring thermal stability. Unlike fluidic solutions, they ensure reliable end-of-life performance, preventing failures common with greases. Ideal for portable electronics, sTIMs enhance battery life, reduce cooling fan size, and minimize heat-sink mass while maintaining RoHS compliance and supporting sustainability initiatives.
• Heat-Spring® is a compressible, non-reflow metal TIM ideal for TIM2 applications. These indium-containing TIMs offer superior thermal conductivity over non-metals, with pure indium metal delivering 86W/mK in all planes. Because of its solid metal state, Heat-Spring® avoids pump-out and bake-out problems. It also offers a sustainable solution through the company’s metals and compounds reclaim and recycle program.
• GalliTHERM® is a portfolio of gallium-based liquid metal solutions built on more than 60 years of expertise in manufacturing advanced gallium materials. Designed for both TIM1 and TIM2 applications, these liquid metal TIMs offer cutting-edge thermal interface performance with superior reliability.
• Liquid Metal TIMs are designed to offer superior thermal conductivity for both TIM1 and TIM1.5 (TIM0) applications. They offer high thermal conductivity to enhance end-product longevity and reliability, low interfacial resistance against most surfaces to dissipate heat quickly, and exceptional wetting ability to both metallic and nonmetallic surfaces. Liquid Metal TIMs are available in a variety of alloys, including InGa and InGaSn.

Additionally, Indium Corporation will also feature its next revolution of solder, including:

• Durafuse® LT is an award-winning solder paste alloy system with versatile characteristics that provide energy savings and high reliability in low-temperature step soldering. It is ideal for assemblies with broad temperature gradients and large BGAs with complex warpage profiles. Durafuse® LT delivers superior thermal cycling and drop shock performance, outperforming conventional low-temperature solders like BiSn or BiSnAg alloys, and can outperform SAC305 with optimal process setup.
• Durafuse® HR is a trusted and proven solder paste alloy technology delivering enhanced thermal cycling performance (-40°C/125°C and -40°C/150°C) and superior voiding control for high-reliability automotive applications. It also offers reduced solder joint cracking and increased shear strength.
