The first private sector-sponsored advanced materials instrument, a high-resolution neutron spectrometer formally known as a "30-meter small-angle neutron scattering Small angle neutron scattering (SANS) is a laboratory technique, similar to the often complementary techniques of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and light scattering. These are particularly useful because of the dramatic increase in forward scattering that occurs at phase spectrometer," or SANS, has been inaugurated at the National Institute of Standards and Technology National Institute of Standards and Technology, governmental agency within the U.S. Dept. of Commerce with the mission of "working with industry to develop and apply technology, measurements, and standards" in the national interest. (NIST (National Institute of Standards & Technology, Washington, DC, www.nist.gov) The standards-defining agency of the U.S. government, formerly the National Bureau of Standards. It is one of three agencies that fall under the Technology Administration (www.technology. ). Designed and built in a joint venture between NIST, Exxon Research & Engineering and the University of Minnesota's Center for Interfacial Engineering, the $1.5 million spectrometer will operate from NIST's Cold Neutron Research facility in Gaithersburg, MD. The spectrometer can observe atomic and molecular structures in bulk materials over an exceptionally broad range of sizes. Norton Performance Plastics' operation in Raamsdonksveer, The Netherlands, has achieved a quality rating of ISO (1) See ISO speed. (2) (International Organization for Standardization, Geneva, Switzerland, www.iso.ch) An organization that sets international standards, founded in 1946. The U.S. member body is ANSI. 9001. The Plastic Division of Novacor moved production/R&D and marketing headquarters for Sarlink thermoplastic elastomers from Sarnia, Ontario, to its new U.S. base in Leominster, MA. A multi-million dollar investment has been completed that added a fully automated twin screw extrusion line with both upstream and downstream equipment as well as extensive modifications in the testing and R&D areas. |
