An isolated thermal interface comprising a flexible graphite sheet having two major surfaces, at least one of the major surfaces coated with a protective coating sufficient to inhibit flaking of the particles of graphite.
A process for producing a thermal interface having protective coating sufficient to inhibit flaking of the particles of graphite, the process comprising (a) forming a flexible graphite sheet into the size and shape desired for a thermal interface, wherein the formed flexible graphite sheet has at least one major surface and at least one edge surface;
- and (b) coating the formed flexible graphite sheet with a material to form a protective coating, such that the material forms a protective boundary about the flexible graphite sheet.
