China Advances in Diamond Heat Dissipation for High-Performance Chips, Partnering with NVIDIA

Published: Apr 15, 2026 10:41
As chips evolve toward higher integration and higher power, traditional copper heat dissipation materials can no longer meet stringent thermal management demands. Diamond thermal conductivity can reach four to five times that of copper, making it a key heat dissipation material for resolving chip performance bottlenecks. Currently, China has achieved mass production of large-size diamond wafers, and coupled with the implementation of related cooperation with NVIDIA, diamond heat dissipation has officially moved from the laboratory to the industrialisation stage. Liquid cooling and diamond materials will create synergistic effects, and China's diamond industry, leveraging its globally leading capacity advantages, is expected to embrace broad development prospects.

LME Inventory keeps Dropping as Metal Moves to US Warehouses
The COMEX-LME copper price spread has continued to widen over the past two weeks, reaching approximately $400/t by late May and touching a recent high of $500/t. With the cross-market arbitrage window remaining open, traders have accelerated the cancellation of LME registered warrants and the transfer of material to the United States. LME copper inventory drawdowns have picked up pace, falling 3,375 tonnes on May 29th to 386,050 tonnes — a fresh 10-week low. Cancelled warrants currently account for 30.87% of total LME copper inventory, with more than half concentrated in US LME warehouses, reflecting clear intent to move metal. Meanwhile, COMEX copper inventories have continued to build to approximately 575,000 tonnes. According to SMM, CIF Shanghai COMEX registered bill-of-lading warrants
