PCM's are unique materials that have the ability to store and then release large amounts of thermal energy at a specific temperature. In applications related to energy management the material can be used to protect an environment from rapid or extreme temperature transients. Electronic circuit protection is an example of an application.</p> <p>In applications where bond release is inportant, the material transforms from a structural material with relatively high strength, to a soft ductile material, at a specific temperature. Cooking temperature indication is an example of an existing product application.</p> <p>Key Features of Bay Materials PMOCs Include:</p> Material Innovations News Tue, 11 Oct 2005 14:44:48 -0600 http://baymaterials.com/node/18 <h4>High Performance Rigid Thermoformable Polyurethane</h4> <p>Zendura™ is a revolutionary new polyurethane material that combines the mechanical properties of an engineering resin with the convenience and cost benefits of thermoforming. Zendura sets new standards for strength, optical clarity, chemical resistance, and processing ease, while maintaining compatibility with existing manufacturing processes.</p> <p>Zendura’s optimized mechanical properties and manufacturing throughput will result in both lower operating costs and higher quality for end users and converters alike. This innovative, high performance material is a first in the industry and will deliver a new edge in the most competitive markets.</p> Material Innovations News Tue, 04 Oct 2005 17:09:29 -0600
