A Good Way to Store Thermal Pad Sheet

Thermal pads are typically made of silicone or other heat-conductive materials and are used to transfer heat between electronic components and heat sinks. To store thermal pads properly, follow these tips:

Keep them in their original packaging

The packaging of thermal pads is designed to protect them from damage and contamination. Therefore, it's best to store them in their original packaging until you are ready to use them.

Store them in a cool, dry place

Thermal pads are sensitive to heat and humidity, which can cause them to degrade over time. To prevent this, store them in a cool (temperature range from 15⁰C to 30⁰C, ambient humidity < 70% as much as possible) , dry place away from direct sunlight.

Keep them away from sharp objects

Thermal pads are soft and can be easily damaged by sharp objects. Therefore, it's best to store them away from any sharp objects that could puncture or tear them.

Avoid exposing them to chemicals

Chemicals such as solvents, oils, and acids can damage thermal pads. Therefore, it's best to store them away from any chemicals or substances that could cause them harm.

By following these tips, you can ensure that your thermal pads remain in good condition and are ready to use when you need them.
