aBo Well... How did it turn out?
first 5 or 6 trys came out worse by 2 - 4 C Mixing and quanities used seem real sensitive it and had a tendancy to coagulate on me.
Last couple of tests I was able to get slightly better than the baseline paste but within test error so I will not declare a success at about a 1/4 deg. C.
warming the paste to about 80C improved the mixing dispersion of it.
I think it may show promise as my tests were pretty quick and dirty and not representative of may be realized with a more diciplined effort.
As the Paste I used is one of the better ones the and fact that at a minimum it did not degrade performance makes me somewhat positive. I am not sure I want to do a full program on it but I am thinking maybe one of the phase change TIM's might be a better base carrier with better wetting characteristics.
