Benefits of Seals and Springs for Defense, AerospaceA new quick–reference guide published by Bal Seal Engineering, Inc. provides information about sealing, connecting, conducting and EMI/RFI shielding solutions for aerospace and defense equipment. Using photorealistic images of military and commercial aircraft, a naval vessel and a satellite, the four-page TMB-11 describes how the company’s Canted Coil Spring is employed as a seal energizer or stand-alone electrical-mechanical component to improve overall equipment performance and reliability. The Canted Coil Spring, a current-carrying, locking, latching and holding solution already at work in thousands of critical defense and aerospace applications worldwide, is available in a broad range of coil heights and materials. This component allows designers to engineer specific insertion and breakaway forces, and it also functions as an EMI/RFI shielding and grounding element.

Emerging Markets for Alternative ConductorsNanoMarkets, the recognized leader in research and analysis for transparent conductors and related markets has released a new report that addresses the markets for alternative” transparent conductive oxides (TCOs). NanoMarkets predicts that by 2016 the market for these alternative TCOs will reach $925 million. Emerging Markets for Non-ITO Transparent Conductive Oxides analyzes applications for these alternatives to indium tin oxide materials in LCD, e-paper, plasma and OLED displays; touch-screen sensors; thin-film and organic photovoltaics, OLED lighting; low-e windows and smart windows; solar control film, antistatics and RFI/EMI shielding. The report also discusses the opportunities for TCOs as an alternative to amorphous silicon in thin-film transistors. Materials covered in the report include FTO, ATO, AZO, GZO, IZO, Multicomponent Amorphous TCOs (MATCOs) and p-type materials. For more information, visit www.nanomarkets.com. |
