Digikey has lots of that material. Paul sent me this link when I asked about it few years ago.

ART03 ARI International Corporation | 509-1000-ND | DigiKey

Now if this monster link works:
Thermal - Pads, Sheets | Fans, Thermal Management | DigiKey

it should list you some alternatives. Most of them seem ridiculously expensive.

I used MICA pads. Ebay has lots of them for cheap. Those pads can be sliced in half to make them even thinner.

Pack of 10 to 247 18mm x 22mm Mica Insulator | eBay

I didn't use thermal grease with those even though that seller recommends it. I cleaned them well though.
