Same as TC3000 series, TC3000E is suitable for all kinds of thermal insulation materials, thermal interface materials, phase-change materials such as ceramic, minerals, polymers, cement, paper, textile, oil, powder, food, etc. Besides, for its small size and low price, TC3000E can also be used as a portable field, on-line, QC and lab thermal properties analyzer.

Thermal Insulation Material
Insulation material is a widely used material, such as building industry, aerospace, power industry and etc. Thermal conductivity is one of the most important parameters of insulation materials. With the rapid development of global economy, there are lots of new kinds of insulation materials; and the measurement speed of the traditional method such as Guarded hot plate method cannot satisfy the higher requirements.
TC 3000E are based on the widely-used hot wire method which is of high speed and high accuracy. The measurement which is just last for a few seconds can greatly reduce the users¡¯ time and labor cost, and thus enable users pay more attention on new insulation material itself.
Thermal Interface Material
The heat dissipation in integrated circuit is another urgent problem accord with the rapid development of electronics industry. Effective thermal interface materials become one of the important research topics. And thermal conductivity is one of the most important properties for those thermal interface materials.
There are lots of kinds of thermal interface material in different forms, such as thermal plastic, heat transfer tape, thermal grease, thermal silica films and etc. So a universal thermal conductivity meter suitable for bulk, sheet, pasty and gel is very useful for users.
TC 3000E satisfy this requirement. The probe surface of TC 3000 sensor is insulated so that it can be applied to thermally conductive electrical material. At the same time, special design of the sensor make TC 3000 to meet the users¡¯ needs to use a single instrument to measure the thermal conductivity of materials in different states, such as bulk, sheet, pasty, gel, and liquid.
Homogeneity Testing
TC3000 series could distinguish the slight difference of thermal conductivity, which can help users to check out the material homogeneity. For example, for rubber with thermal conductive additives, TC 3000 series can not only distinguish the performance difference of rubbers with different additives, but can also tell the users the uniformity of additives in a certain sample.
Besides, TC 3000E can be used to predict the material¡¯s properties in a sealed cell without opening the container. For irregular sample or precious sample, such as a fan or turbine blade, TC 3000E also has distinct advantage as long as a 2.5 cm good contact with the sample is ok for the measurement.
