My name is Scott and I'm the inventor of a new Thermal Interface Material, called Nanotherm (tm). Nanotherm is a new concept in thermal compounds. It's a true "Nanocomposite" material that's non-silicone based with high thermally conductive, heat resistant and electrically insulative properties.

My company, ESG Associates, is very close to launching this new thermal compound and I would like to get some Pre-Market feedback from potential End-Users, like yourself.

First, let me say that our goal in creating Nanotherm was to make a thermal compound that would equal or better the performance of Artic Silver II at a significantly reduced price per application. By all accounts, we have achieved that goal. We have several independent tests of Nanotherm in progress right now with a variety of popular review sites. Some of the preliminary feedback we have received validate that our Nanotherm compound is, in fact, equal to (and in some cases, better than) ASII in terms of performance.

For a moment, just assume that our Nanotherm compound is equal in performance to ASII. We'd appreciate your thoughts on the questions below:
- How likely would you be to purchase a new thermal compound of equal performance to ASII if it was: 1) the same cost per application? 2) 75% the cost per application 3) 50% the cost per application?
- Do you like the idea of a syringe type dispenser for your thermal compounds - even if it's more expensive to package that way? Are there other types of dispensing packaging that you might like to see? Please explain.
- In terms of packaging, would you prefer to see the material inside (color, amount) through a clear/translucent type of dispenser or is opaque packaging acceptable?
- Do you have any interest in small, single-use packages of compound, or do you prefer larger, multiple application dispensers?
- Would you be more apt to purchase a cream/ivory colored thermal compound or a blue compound?
- Of the following two Nanotherm product names, which do you find more compelling: Nanotherm Natural or Nanotherm Blue?

Thanks in advance your feedback on these questions. We expect to have the final packaged Nanotherm product on the market by late August / early September. We are beginning to take Pre-Orders for Nanotherm from PC / Cooling Hardware Retailers who are interested in stocking our product. We will soon have a list of Retailers and Review links on our site at www.esgn.com.

For those who may be interested in trying our Nanotherm compound, we are offering Free 0.2 cc Engineering Evaluation Samples through our site. If you understand the value of a good thermal material, then, by all means, please stop by and order a sample.
