  • Molecular electronics - using nanoscale molecules as key components in computers and other electronic devices
  • Molecular electronics-the future of bioelectronics
  • There are several reasons why molecular electronics is the next paradigm for Moore’s Law:

Plastics

  • Engineering Plastic Compounds
    • Polypropylene Compounds filled with Minerals and Glass for Garden Furniture and other applications
    • Polypropylene modified with EPDM
    • PBT filled with Glass, Mineral and Fire Retardant Additives
    • Nylon filled with Glass, Mineral
    • Fire-retardant, thermoplastic, polyolefin-based compounds
    • Additive Master Batches
  • Carbon nanotubes
  • Injection monitoring
  • Mould design
  • Microcellular extension
  • Additives in the future of plastics? - The extension of polymer properties by additives has played a substantial role in the growth of plastics, and this is likely to continue in future
  • High-performance additives
  • Antioxidants; Light stabilizers; Flame retardants; Recycling; Nanocomposites; Polymer modification
  • Plastic electronics - The technology opens up the possibility for very flexible, high-tech devices - such as information screens that you can roll up and put in your pocket - being developed
  • Laser Marking Has a Bright Future in Plastics - Fast, programmable, environmentally clean laser marking has established a niche in basic marking of dates and product codes, but it is capable of much more
