I can't imagine why it should corrode, unless you are exposing it to a highly corrosive atmosphere like sea spray on a yacht or something. There's no TIM I know of that uses water as a carrier; they are all based on either mineral oil or silicone grease of some kind, neither of which will cause corrosion of the copper. In fact, the TIM will help PREVENT corrosion of the copper, and it provides an air seal (that is, after all, what it is designed to do).
