Abstract
A sealed pouch constructed of thermally conductive flexible material containing a low melting point, thermally conductive material is placed between two components that require thermal continuity. This assembly is then loaded in compression and heated to the melting point of the low melting point, thermally conductive material, which then melts within the sealed pouch, and conforms to the shape of the two components. The sealed pouch also may contain a springy material made of a metal, or a solder compatible plastic or organic to help maintain shape of the pouch in some applications.
