Boston Materials, Inc., founded in 2016, is a scale-up advanced materials company that develops and manufactures innovative materials to solve critical challenges in the semiconductor, aerospace, and electrified vehicle industries. The company produces a new class of materials that are conductive and durable like metal but as lightweight as plastic, designed to enhance the performance and efficiency of energy-intensive systems. Their proprietary technology leverages reclaimed carbon fiber, positioning them as a sustainable solution provider in high-tech manufacturing.
Liquid Metal ZRT® is a thermal interface material (TIM) specifically engineered for high-power semiconductors. It integrates vertically aligned carbon fibers into a liquid metal matrix, creating a composite material that provides exceptional cooling for advanced microprocessors used in data centers, telecommunications, and high-performance computing.
This product solves critical performance and reliability issues caused by overheating in advanced, high-power semiconductors. By enabling more effective heat dissipation, it allows devices like GPUs to operate at peak performance without thermal throttling.
Customers face challenges with thermal management in high-power electronics, durability issues like delamination in composite structures, and the need for significant weight reduction without sacrificing strength in vehicles and aircraft. Boston Materials' products also address manufacturing complexities and can enhance vibration damping and lightning strike protection.
