In an embodiment, an article of manufacture includes a first component, a second component, and a thermal interface material. The thermal interface material is disposed between the first component and the second component and includes a polymeric phase-change material. In another embodiment, an article of manufacture includes a first component, a second component, and a thermal interface material disposed between the first component and the second component, the thermal interface material including a polymeric phase-change material, the polymeric phase-change material including a block copolymer formed from a diene, the diene formed from a vinyl-terminated fatty acid monomer having a chemical formula C2H4—R—C(O)OH and an ethylene glycol monomer having a chemical formula C2nH4n+2On+1. |
