A thermal interface material that is useful in transferring heat from heat generating electronic devices, such as computer chips, to heat dissipating structures, such as heat spreaders and heat sinks. The thermal interface material comprises at least one silicone oil, at least one catalyst, at least one thermally conductive filler having a larger surface area, a solvent, at least one inhibitor, and at least one crosslinker. The at least one thermally conductive filler reduces the oil leakage of the TIM, and the solvent increases the flow rate of the TIM without negating the reduction of oil leakage realized by the thermally conductive fillers |
