I made some measurements on Araldite filled with copper filings to quite
a high density, basically as much copper as I could get in there and
keep it workable. The heat transfer through it was amazing. I was quite
impressed.

Then my techie did the same tests with plain Araldite and the results
were a few percent worse. It actually made hardly any difference. So
you're bang on.
