Heat-conductive adhesive films, laminates with heat-conductive adhesive layers and the use thereof

Abstract

A laminate comprising (a) a carrier having a heat conductivity of at least 10 W/mK and a thickness of 10 to 100 .mu.m, and (b) a dielectric adhesive layer which is applied to at least one surface of said substrate and which contains a heat-conductive filler and has a thickness of 5 to 500 .mu.m and a heat conductivity of 1 W/mK. The flexible laminate, or a dielectric and self-supporting adhesive film which contains a heat-conductive filler and has a heat conductivity of at least 1 W/mK, is suitable for removing heat from leadframes which have electrically insulated contact surfaces for electrical and electronic components and which are encapsulated with a synthetic resin moulding material, typically dual-in-line plastic packages, by bonding the rear sides of the contact surfaces to the leads.
