Billions of pounds of carpets are generated annually worldwide. A large percentage of which ends up in landfills is problematic because nylon is non-biodegradable.
Limitations in landfill capacity and the environmental impact of disposing of carpet waste in this manner have made recovering nylon from carpet waste an increasingly important enterprise.
The glass transition of lactose is in direct relation with the stickiness and the flowability of powders containing it. This in turn influences the processing.
Thermoelectric materials with a high efficiency that are used, for example, to generate electricity from heat, are naturally brittle and fragile. It would be much more user-friendly to use flexible materials. There are already thin plastic films, so-called PEDOT´s, which are flexible and can be applied over large areas at low cost. However, these have … Read moreFlexible layer structured Bi2Te3 thermoelectric on a carbon nanotube scaffold
Glastüren an Kühlgeräten sind in großem Umfang bei Kühltheken in Supermärkten im Einsatz. Dadurch wird der Energieverbrauch reduziert und die Qualität der Lebensmittel verbessert. Meist wird Einfachglas verwendet; selten Mehrscheiben-Isolierglas. Die BSH Hausgeräte GmbH hat auch Vakuumisolierglas in der Erprobung. Damit eine gleichbleibende Qualität garantiert werden kann, setzt die BSH-Hausgeräte GmbH zur Qualitätskontrolle des Wärmedurchgangskoeffizienten auf das mobile Ug-Wert-Messgerät “Uglass” von NETZSCH.
How to determine the shelf life of drugs without long time testing? First predictions about the shelf-life concerning thermal stability are achieved using thermogravimetric measurements with a kinetics Evaluation. This occurs within some hours or days.
Each of the modifications of a polymorph has different physical properties. That´s why they have to be characterized before processing, for example using DSC.
The software KINETICS NEO and the data from thermal analysis support you with a virtual view in into your sintering process inside the kiln. It helps you to design your process to the best!
Vacuum Insulation Panels or VIPs have a very low thermal conductivity. But how can we determine the thermal conductivity precisely with the lowest possible measurement uncertainty?
In this Video our Business Field Manager Alexander Frenzl talked about the “Digital Transformation” in the ceramics industry with Susan Sutton from BNP Media for Ceramic Industry Magazine!
We created a very valuable tool for all process engineers throughout the world of technical ceramics manufacturing.
The third-party control of the declared product performance increases the level of security of the proof of usability of insulating materials for the relevant national applications.
