This trivalent chromium, aqueous coating is made for aluminum, aluminum alloys and IVD deposited aluminum. It has a low electrical contact impedance, and comes in a color range from clear to light blue. It can be applied by immersion or in spray form. With long-term corrosion protection, it is Class 3 per ASTM B449, and meets Mil-C-5541 for Class 1 and Class 3, is RoHS-compliant and meets ELV and WEEE requirements. It works as a good bonding agent for paint (new or repaint), and is geared toward aluminum products in the automotive, aircraft, sport vehicle, architectural and hardware industries.
Almost every automaker has had to 'pick a side' when it comes to alternative fuel options and ways to divest from a reliance on gasoline. Fiat is looking to back compressed natural gas or liquid propane as an interim solution.
Designing and filling a new type of water bottle might take less engineering work, but the description will help kids understand how science, math, and engineering influence their lives even through things that seem mundane.
Against a backdrop of mounting product complexity and a need to keep a lid on development costs, companies are recognizing a need to make simulation a more integral part of the design process. In response, vendors in the CAD world are building out CAE functionality as part of their CAD suites while simulation vendors are building tighter integrations to leading CAD tools. Keith Meintjes, Ph.D., Practice Manager, Simulation and Analysis at CIMdata, Inc., joins Design News CAD Editor Beth Stackpole in this radio program to explore the new face of integrated CAD and CAE, how companies are benefitting from this tighter partnership between platforms, and how integrating CAE earlier in the development cycle pays off in optimized product designs.
