A system for heat transfer along with the method of preparation of the same is described. System includes a first surface, a second surface, and an interface material. The interface material is disposed between the first and second surfaces such that it is solid at an assembling temperature and liquid at an operating temperature. The first surface of the system is configured to adhere to the solid and liquid thermal interface material, and the second surface is configured to adhere to the liquid thermal interface material and be detachable from the solid interface material. The method of preparation of the system includes disposing the first surface, an interface material, and a second surface, heating the interface material to above its melting point and then cooling to a temperature below melting point to detach and remove the second surface from the interface material.
