The latest in Bergquist's "S-Class" gap filling materials line, this filler offers thermal conductivity (3.6 W/m-K) and softness (Shore [00]-32), and can "wet-out" the interface surface. The latter creates less air voids on the application surface, making for more surface area contact and less interfacial resistance. It has low viscosity and good thixotropic characteristics before curing, its gel-like material filling gaps and voids, but flowing easily when dispensed or during assembly. It is a two-part material that needs no refrigeration and can cure in about 15 hours at room temperature, or in 25 min at 100C. It comes in 50 cc and 400 cc side-by-side cartridges and 1,200 cc and 10-gallon kits.
Inforbix is leveraging its CAD and product data access technology to power up a free iPad app that lets mobile users search and access engineering data.
Unlike his friends in engineering programs, blogger Jon Titus had little need for calculus except in a few of his college physical-chemistry labs and classes.
In the wake of the Chevy Volt fire investigations, sales are down, and General Motors' (GM) CEO Dan Akerson is blaming the downturn on a spate of bad publicity.
Thanks to embedded electronics, medical devices are getting smaller and smarter than ever. Pacemakers and implantable defibrillators are now able to call physicians. MRIs, CT scanners, and ultrasound machines are gaining mobility. And the venerable Band-Aid may soon be able to detect illnesses ranging from fevers to heart arrhythmias. On February 21, join Design News senior editor Charles Murray for a wide-ranging discussion, "Embedded Angles for Medical Products," which will explore the latest developments in medical electronics. The discussion will examine advances in medical device technology and offer an inside look at the embedded electronics behind it.
