The Quarterly New Product Tabloid for the Rubber Industry.THE QUARTERLY NEW PRODUCT TABLOID FOR THE RUBBER INDUSTRY High stability platens Isoplatens are high stability heated platens for critical thermal processing, molding and forming. Direct thermal comparative analysis is said to show that Isoplatens provide rapid thermal recovery, improved part quality, a processing range of 32 [degrees]-500 [degrees] F (0 [degrees]-250 [degrees] C), reduced cycle time, a single control zone, and they are custom engineered to suit customer processes. When a platen A long, thin cylinder in a typewriter or printer that guides the paper through it and serves as a backstop for the printing mechanism to bang into. It is typically made of a hard rubber or rubber-like material. See carriage and typewriter. incorporates the company's patented Isobar isobar (ī`səbär') or isobaric line (ī'səbăr`ĭk), line drawn on a weather map through points of equal atmospheric pressure. technology, the result is said to be a tool that operates with lower heating demands, consistently produces high quality parts and allows users to handle various molding compounds with narrower thermal windows. Isoplatens are said to cost only marginally more than conventional platens, and the technology can be retrofitted to existing tools with minimal downtime The time during which a computer is not functioning due to hardware, operating system or application program failure. , according to according to prep. 1.

Windsor is located directly south of Detroit and is separated from that city by the Detroit River. The city has views of the Detroit skyline. , Canada N8S 2B7) Circle 1 on card Additives This manufacturer of performance processing additives for the polymer industry presents its company brochure, "A world of capabilities." The four-color, eight-page brochure highlights the company and its products, which are produced within a quality managed system that is said to meet 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 standards. The company's laboratory, distribution and technical service capabilities are noted in the literature. The company's technical specialists, research and development chemists and compound laboratories work together as a team to meet the changing needs of the polymer industry, according to the literature. The addition of trade product lines to the company's family of produced products is said to make it a valuable single source chemical supplier to its customers. Product applications for the company's additives include concept tires, tennis shoes tennis shoes npl → zapatillas fpl de tenis tennis shoes npl → (chaussures fpl de) tennis mpl tennis shoes tennis , super computers, plastic pails, oil seals oil seal or shaft seal In machines, a device that prevents the passage of fluids along a rotating shaft. Seals are necessary when a shaft extends from a housing (enclosure) containing oil, such as a pump or a gearbox. , bridge bearing pads, and more. (Struktol Company of America, 201 E.

Chiefly residential, it has some light industry. , OH 44224-0649) Circle 2 on card Stackers The Accustrip Stacker automatically stacks a single strip of rubber onto an open flat pallet for transport, according to the company's two-page, four-color bulletin. Many manufacturers of finished rubber products buy their rubber compound in the form of continuous strips in order to feed their extruders, injection molds or tire tread winding machines, according to the literature. Current industry practice is said to be to have a worker stack the rubber by hand or lay the strip in a box or basket. Now, for most rubber compounds, these labor costs and container expenses can be reduced or eliminated with the Accustrip Stacker, according to the company. The stacking technique involves lacing the rubber across the pallet in two directions to form a full stack, neat in appearance and ridged for shipping. Several machines can be combined for multi-strip processing. (VM1 Americas, 4485 Allen Rd., Stow, OH 44224) Circle 3 on card High performance fluoroelastomers Dai-El high performance fluoroelastomers are featured in a 16-page, four-color brochure. Dai-El fluoroelastomers are said to stand up to harsh environments, and make it easy to develop new products and applications, according to the company. Dai-El is said to take advantage of properties not found in other rubbers, such as heat, oil and chemical resistance. Dai-El is said to play an indispensable role in fast changing industries, including automotive, chemical, office automation and semiconductor manufacturing, according to the literature. This brochure includes color illustrations, application examples, comparisons of Dai-El to other rubbers, and technical properties of the materials in tables and graphs. Properties examined include heat resistance, mechanical properties, compression set, oil and solvent resistance, chemical resistance, low temperature properties, ozone resistance, and more. (Daikin America, 20 Olympic Dr., Orangeburg, NY 10962) Circle 4 on card Latex The Vanderbilt Latex Handbook, Third Edition, contains 260 pages of information compiled for persons primarily engaged in the latex branch of the industry. This handbook is intended to serve as a guide/or the novice compounder so that laboratory and plant trials will generate meaningful data. For the experienced compounder, this book is intended to serve as both a current and handy reference. An introduction to latex compounding and processing is followed by chapters on methylmethacrylate graft polymer latexes, synthetic latexes produced by emulsion polymerization Emulsion polymerization is a type of radical polymerization that usually starts with an emulsion incorporating water, monomer, and surfactant. The most common type of emulsion polymerization is an oil-in-water emulsion, in which droplets of monomer (the oil) are emulsified (with , latexes produced by solvent polymerization polymerization Any process in which monomers combine chemically to produce a polymer. The monomer molecules—which in the polymer usually number from at least 100 to many thousands—may or may not all be the same. , preparation of ingredients for compounding, vulcanization vulcanization (vŭl'kənəzā`shən), treatment of rubber to give it certain qualities, e.g., strength, elasticity, and resistance to solvents, and to render it impervious to moderate heat and cold. , antidegradants, and more.
