Levapren line of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers

 Traditionally used in the wire and cable industry, the Levapren line of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers is also gaining a reputation as a cost-effective alternative to acrylic elastomers (ACM) in many niche markets. Levapren is a highly fillable, heat-resistant elastomer. It is continuously heat-resistant up to air temperatures over 160°C and is also resistant up to 175°C for short periods of time. The elastomer is nonhalogenated, and the relatively high polarity provides substantial oil resistance.

Polycin GR polyols

Marketed as the first completely natural, renewable seed-based series of polyols for the urethane industry, Polycin GR polyols are intended for coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers (CASE) applications. Derived from the components of castor oil, these polyols range in hydroxyl number from 340 down to 35, with functionality from 2.9 to 2, resulting in polyurethane hardness. The new materials meet the growing demand for products based on green chemistry.

Carbowet 106 and 109 surfactants for waterborne architectural and industrial coatings

  Carbowet 106 and 109 surfactants for waterborne architectural and industrial coatings are drop-in replacements for wetting agents that contain alkylphenol ethoxylates (APE) or nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPE), which are persistent in the environment and suspected of being endocrine disrupters. Biodegradable, these surfactants are multifunctional, low-foaming, solvent-free additives for pigment and substrate wetting. They are clear, low-odor, low-viscosity liquids that are 100% active and easy to use.

VEAM CIR Series connectors

 VEAM CIR Series connectors can function as electrical, optical or pneumatic connectors, providing design engineers with the ability to simplify receptacle design processes and inventory. Coaxial CIR connectors accept most popular RG cables. Fiber styles are available with single- or multiple-fiber termini. Devices can include a range of insert-grommet materials to provide superior resistance to fuel oils, solvents and elevated temperatures. Alternatively, they can be supplied with glass-to-metal hermetic seals in lieu of elastomeric inserts.

C-Series sensors

For sensing and communication, standard C-Series sensors are equipped with a connector that attaches to a cable. While this connection works well under normal conditions, in a wet environment, such cables can wick water or other liquids down the inside of the cable jacket if a sealed cable is not used or if the opposite end of the cable jacket is exposed. By replacing the connector and cover with three discrete wires that seal against the wire insulation instead of the cable jacket, a simple grommet can be used to provide water-tight sealing.

OnVu time-temperature indicator (TTI) system

OnVu is a time-temperature indicator (TTI) system that monitors the freshness of perishable goods. OnVu TTIs are supplied as either printing inks or labels and can, in principle, be used for any product that is sensitive to temperature. Once activated by a suitable light source, the TTI first becomes dark and then grows progressively lighter as time passes, and if and when the ambient temperature rises. Exposure to higher temperatures than those prescribed accelerates the lightening process of the color.

EOTec 2104 industrial Ethernet ring switch

The EOTec 2104 industrial Ethernet ring switch comes preconfigured for ring redundancy, offering virtual plug-and-play performance for quick and easy startup and commissioning. The switch uses self-healing ring topology, featuring the ease of operation of an unmanaged switch, while providing the benefits of a managed switch. In addition to offering fast recovery times (30 ms + 5 ms/hop), the switch allows for real-time data transfer with IEEE 802.3 Ethernet compliance. The EOTec 2104 also offers diagnostic outputs for use in critical process applications.

HT-24 ultrahigh-throughput centrifugal evaporator

 The HT-24 ultrahigh-throughput centrifugal evaporator is designed for organic synthesis, HPLC and compound purification. Designed around two HT-12 Series II evaporators, the HT-24 enables users to simultaneously evaporate two samples made in different solvents. The high-throughput design of the HT-24 allows up to 96 shallow-well microplates to be dried down at the same time, while capacity for standard 16 ¥ 100-mm fraction collector tubes is 576 tubes/run.

AST47HP Series Sensors

 The AST47HP Series meets the growing need for pressure sensors with ratings to 60,000 psig (4,000 bar) for applications such as high-pressure wells, hydraulics, injection molding equipment, water jets and downhole instrumentation. These sensors are also suitable for water-jetting applications used in food processing, concrete and tile cutting and metal fabrication. They incorporate a one-piece stainless-steel sensing element that is free of silicone oil, welds or O-rings.

PHTEMP101

The PHTEMP101 is a standalone pH and temperature recorder that measures and records up to 13,107 measurements per channel. This battery-powered device connects directly to most standard pH and ORP electrodes. The non-volatile, solid-state storage medium provides maximum data security, even if the battery becomes discharged.
