5G brings a new high-tech, that is, heat dissipation gasket, but the material is monopolized by the United States and Japan

The rise of 5G has indeed brought opportunities to many industries. Currently, people have some doubts about 5G, and consumers have a poor understanding of 5G. However, it is surprising that the development of 5G has led to the development of a high-tech technology, namely cooling technology, which may be quite unexpected to all parties.

It is reported that the power consumption of a 5G base station is 2-3 times that of a 4G base station. More frightening than power consumption is the increase in heat generation. Industry insiders have pointed out that the heating capacity of a 5G base station is five times that of a 4G base station. The huge heat dissipation consumption has caused manufacturers to spend a lot of time and even have to configure air-conditioned rooms for 5G base stations. This also shows the refinement of the 5G base station.
Not only does the 5G base station have a huge heating capacity, but the 5G chips on mobile phones also generate enormous heat. The need for 5G chips to process more data, more complex 5G signals, more antennas, and so on can lead to a significant increase in the heat generation of 5G mobile phone chips. Therefore, the battery capacity of 5G handsets is generally much larger than that of 4G handsets, and heat dissipation has become one of the important technical difficulties of 5G handsets.
In order to solve the heat dissipation problem of 5G base stations and 5G mobile phones, many enterprises are trying to find solutions. One of these technologies is the heat dissipation gasket. Perhaps many people believe that heat dissipating gaskets are an inconspicuous product. However, such products are now monopolized by Japan and the United States.
Many domestic enterprises have been able to provide heat dissipation gaskets, but the materials of heat dissipation gaskets are now monopolized by Japan and the United States. Industry insiders pointed out that due to the surge in demand for heat dissipation gaskets, heat dissipation gasket suppliers in Japan and the United States are currently in the ascendant. It is said that the relevant manufacturers need to pay first, and then drive a truck to wait for the goods at the entrance of the Japanese and American manufacturers.

Monopoly It is reported that graphite heat dissipation has gradually become a heat dissipation technology valued by all parties. However, the main material of graphite heat dissipation film, polyimide (PI) film, is monopolized by manufacturers such as DuPont in the United States, SKC Kelon in South Korea, Zhonghua in Japan, Ubu Xingshan in Japan, and Taiwan barley, with patent advantages. The development of these heat dissipating materials by Chinese manufacturers is hindered by patents.
In addition to being limited by American and Japanese manufacturers in terms of materials, overseas manufacturers also have significant advantages in radiator design technology. Today’s mobile phones are developing in the direction of lightweight. However, due to the high power consumption of 5G mobile phones, they can only increase the battery capacity, further squeezing the internal space of the phone. The lightweight design of thin radiators is also extremely important. In this regard, Japanese manufacturers have advantages over manufacturers from Taiwan, China, and China. They can design thinner radiators.
Of course, with the rise of Chinese mobile phone companies, Chinese mobile phones have also begun to strengthen cooperation with the industry chain. Some mobile phone companies, even those directly investing in the radiator industry, are accelerating the development of the domestic radiator industry chain. Currently, some domestic mobile phone brands have adopted domestic radiators and domestic heat dissipation materials.
However, domestic heat sinks are mainly in the mid to low end market, while the high-end market is still controlled by overseas enterprises. Apple, which emphasizes high technology, still mainly uses the products and materials of overseas radiator companies, highlighting the gap between domestic radiator technology and overseas technology, and the need for technological acceleration in the domestic radiator industry.

The development of monopoly 5G still requires efforts, but interestingly, it has led to the development of radiators. Nowadays, domestic communication companies are also hyping technical gimmicks such as graphene radiators in the field of heat dissipation. However, as the key materials mentioned above come from American and Japanese companies, this is undoubtedly a regrettable fact.
