Heat sink compound vs. dialectic

[John Hess]

dialectic \ A process of reasoning based on the clash of one idea with its
opposite leading to a resolution of these ideas in the form of a truer or
more comprehensive concept.  (The new Britannica Webster Dictionary
Reference Guide).

I don't think so!

Could you possibly mean dielectric?  If so, the answer yes, no, maybe,
sometimes, always, and never;  but, not necessarily in that order.  There
are both conductive and non-conductive (dielectric) varieties of heat sink
compounds.
