Editor?s note: The author, Donald E. De Laney, a consultant in polymer process rheology, worked with GE for 17 years and has worked with Dynisco over the past eight years. The plastics compounding and ...

Aluminum is particularly well suited to the extrusion process due to its excellent plasticity at extrusion temperature. Only a minor degree of work-hardening takes place at this temperature and ...

Accurate prediction of breakthrough extruding force is very important for extrusion production, especially for the large-scale extrusion process, which directly affects the production costs and safety ...

With its diverse portfolio of polymer testing and sensing equipment, Dynisco is bringing rheology to the masses. Rheology is the investigation of the ­flow and deformation behavior of materials when ...

Maintaining junction temperatures is essential for power and microprocessors at the p.c. board level. Tests now can compare forced convection heat transfer for swaged, mixed-metal heatsinks to help ...

In context: Heatsinks are essential in any computer and many electronic devices. As CPUs and GPUs have gotten faster and hotter over the years, heatsinks have evolved and come in many shapes and sizes ...
