How We Engineer Our Own PCM Compositions
At Zero Point Energy Labs, thermal regulation isn’t an afterthought—it’s a designed function.
Our PCM (Phase Change Material) thermal modules are engineered in-house using performance-validated compounds and high-grade packaging materials. Instead of relying on generic formulations, we build every blend around the thermal behavior of the systems it’s meant to support—whether that’s next-gen electronics, off-grid robotics, or space-bound avionics.
What Makes Our PCM Different?
Our materials aren’t just selected—they’re calculated. We engineer for:
Temperature Range Precision: Tuned to activate at exact operating thresholds—from cryogenic buffers to high-heat capture zones.
Thermal Absorption Capacity: Optimized blends for 500W–1000W+ load environments, while also supporting low-power thermal events typical of microelectronics operating between 40°C–125°C. No energy goes to waste, whether it’s a high-discharge battery or a sensitive chip package.
Reusability & Stability: Each module is tested for thermal cycling durability, delivering consistent performance across long mission timelines.
Material Compatibility: Our formulations are chosen for safe integration with metals, plastics, and sensitive electronics—minimizing risk of degradation or chemical interaction.
Engineered for Both Power & Precision
Whether your system generates kilowatts of heat or milliwatts at a time, we tune our PCMs to match.
Our modules are capable of absorbing localized, high-frequency heat from microelectronics, integrated circuits, and signal processors—making them ideal for environments where temperature spikes can degrade chip performance or cause thermal drift in critical analog or RF components.
By buffering these thermal fluctuations at the source, we stabilize system performance and extend the lifetime of heat-sensitive devices.
Precision Starts with the Right Materials
We source laboratory-grade thermal compounds from trusted partners like Sigma-Aldrich, allowing us to formulate tailored compositions tuned to:
- Defined Activation Temperatures
- High Latent Heat Storage
- Cycling Endurance Across Extreme Environments
- Non-Reactive Interfaces with Electronics and Housing Materials
Every blend is optimized to absorb and redistribute heat in the most efficient way for your application—without active cooling or moving parts.
Standard & Custom Packaging Options
All of our PCM modules come standard in anti-static vacuum-sealed barrier bags—a lightweight, compact format suitable for most commercial and development applications.
For use in harsh-environments, we offer custom aerospace- and military-grade packaging, using U.S.-sourced specialty films and structural housings that meet:
- Outgassing and permeability specs for aerospace use
- Chemical and thermal resistance
- Mechanical durability for flight, launch, or extreme field conditions
Custom enclosures can be made to fit any size, shape, or integration constraint, from panel inserts to chassis-wrapped geometries.
No Two Modules Are Alike
We don’t ship generic modules—we build them to spec. Using our in-lab heat load simulations and real-time testing with electronics, we tune each blend and packaging format to the system’s energy profile. The result: stable, reliable heat absorption that complements your engineering goals.
Thermal Modules That Work as Hard as Your System
