How thin is thin?


Ajedium Film Group LLC (Logical Link Control) See "LANs" under data link protocol.

LLC - Logical Link Control
 in Newark, Del., a start-up maker of specialty films using high-heat engineering resins, has made monolayer mon·o·lay·er
n.
1. A film or layer one molecule thick formed at the interface between water and either oil or air by a substance such as a partially esterified fatty acid that contains both hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups in the same
 film of a ketone-based resin as thin as 0.00025 in. (1/4 mil), and three-layer film down to 0.003 in. of polycarbonate. Ajedium also makes films as thick as 0.050 in.

The company started production late last year on a specialized Davis-Standard two-extruder line with a three-layer feed-block and die from Cloeren Inc. and special cooling/tempering rolls. The line is designed to handle resins with melt temperatures up to 800 F, like PEEK, PPS (Packets Per Second) The measurement of activity in a local area network (LAN). In LANs such as Ethernet, Token Ring and FDDI, as well as the Internet, data is broken up and transmitted in packets (frames), each with a source and destination address. , and polyetherimide (GE's Ultem), as well as PVDF PVDF polyvinylidene difluoride  and polymethylpentene (PMP). Ajedium's customers include resin companies seeking to develop new film markets for specialty resins. PMP film, for example, can be thermoformed into speaker cones and PPS film has potential in high-temperature electrical insulation and capacitators.
