3M: Novec surface modifier coating EGC-2702 protects electronic components against moisture and corrosion - rapidly, economically and safely

Relevance Score: 5.206    2010-02-11 12:30:30

3M, the diversified technology company, has launched Novec EGC-2702, a surface modifier coating that provides economic and fast protection against moisture and corrosion in electronics manufacture and assembly. A cost-effective high performance alternative to traditional conformal coatings, Novec EGC-2702 can be applied and dried within seven minutes, which is less than a third of the time of leading existing competitive products. It is also non-flammable and is designed to help electronics companies adhere to environmental, health and safety requirements.      Available exclusively in the UK and Ireland from distributor Acota, Novec EGC-2702 is aimed at electronics environments involving coating of sensitive components, such as circuit boards. Particular target markets include automotive, telecommunications, military and aerospace equipment.   Time, labour and cost benefits Novec EGC-2702 removes the need to mask surface areas - such as connection points - during thecoating process, so time, labour and associated costs are substantially reduced. Novec EGC-2702 cures in just 40 minutes, which compares favourably with alternatives – for example acrylic, silicone and urethane-based coatings – which can take from 3 hours to one week to cure. Novec EGC-2702 can be cured at room temperature or with the aid of additional heat.   Once applied, Novec EGC-2702 forms a transparent layer of just one micron, yet is waterproof and repellent against aqueous solutions, oils and synthetic fluids, up to temperatures of 200 degrees Centigrade. In addition, future repairs can be carried out to the electronics component without the need to remove the coating.   Unlike most other coatings available, Novec EGC-2702 is non-flammable, which eliminates the need for electrical equipment used in the drying process to be classified as flameproof or ‘intrinsically safe’.   Due to the reduced drying and curing time, the volume of equipment and storage required is a third in comparison to conformal coatings: important in environments where floor space is often limited. This also helps to minimise energy consumption.

Mubadala To Produce Boeing Parts At Abu Dhabi Plant.

Relevance Score: 2.115    2009-11-16 16:29:26

Mubadala Development Co. will manufacture composite parts for Boeing Co. (BA) aircraft at a new Abu Dhabi facility and continues to look for partners as it beefs up its capabilities to turn the emirate into a global aerospace hub, a company executive said Monday.   "We'll be agreeing, in the next step, specific work packages and technology transfer to us to build Boeing parts here in Abu Dhabi," Homaid Al Shemmari, Mubadala's associate director for aerospace, said in an interview with Zawya Dow Jones at the Dubai Air Show.   Mubadala earlier Monday said it signed a wide-ranging and long-term agreement with Boeing that will include developing projects in areas of composite manufacturing, military maintenance and pilot training.   "It also involves being involved with the maintenance, repair and overhaul, or MRO, of commercial and military aircraft manufactured by Boeing," Al Shemmari said.   Mubadala, an Abu Dhabi government investment firm that is spearheading the emirate's plans to diversify the economy, also has a pact with European Aeronautic Defence & Space Co. NV (EAD.FR) and its wholly-owned unit Airbus to produce parts for the A330 and A340 aircraft.   Mubadala previously said it expects it partnership with EADS to generate more than $1 billion of revenue for its aerospace unit over 10 years.   The investment firm also has joint ventures with Italian aerospace and defense company Finmeccanica S.p.A. (FNC.MI), Rolls-Royce Group PLC (RR.LN) and U.S.-based Sikorsky Aerospace Services.   "We are in negotiations with Boeing and our existing partners, and other partners also," Al Shemmari said, adding that the firm seeks manufacturing work packages that also have a "design and development" aspect.   "We're trying always, with each deal, with each agreement, to increase the capabilities built for Abu Dhabi," he informed.   Al Shemmari said the company's Abu Dhabi-based joint venture with Sikorsky, which aims "to address the growing market needs for the military aviation MRO," should be operational within the first quarter of 2010. "That will address the majority, if not all, of the military aviation needs in the U.A.E. and the region at large," he said.

IAF Wants National Policy On Aerospace Technology

Relevance Score: 2.050    2010-04-12 15:54:13

The Indian Air Force (IAF) has called for a national policy on aerospace technology to get self-reliance in producing indigenous aircraft and support systems for military and civilian operations, a senior official said Saturday.   “It’s high time a national policy on aerospace technology is put on a fast track to achieve self-reliance in the sector and scale up producing various types of aircraft for military and civilian operations, with greater involvement of the private sector,” IAF Vice Chief Air Marshal Pranab Kumar Barbora informed here at a national convention on aeronautical technologies.   Regretting that India missed out in providing middle level technologies post-independence, Barbora informed though the manufacturing sector was able to produce a passenger car (Landmaster/Ambassador) in 1960s and achieved near self-reliance in space technology in the subsequent decades, the absence of any development in the aerospace industry had created a void.   “Though we are a major economic power to reckon with in South Asia, we have not leveraged it to bargain for greater access to aerospace technologies or attracting overseas investment through joint ventures to develop our state-run or private industry,” Barbora informed about 700 delegates participating in the two-day convention.   The event, Frontiers of Aeronautical Technologies, is organised by the Aeronautical Society of India (ASI).   Noting that there was no dearth of brains to achieve self-reliance in aerospace technologies and aviation operations, the officer informed the government should invest in research and development (R&D) and manufacturing by the private sector as it had been doing for the defence public sector undertakings.   “The role of aerospace industry is not limited to meeting defence needs but to civilian applications (also) as the aviation sector plays a vital role in the economic growth of the country. While China produced an entire Airbus, some of our state-run firms like Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) supply only doors or under carriage for passenger jets,” Barbora lamented.   Pointing out that indigenisation was not happening at the pace it should have for speeding up self-reliance, Barbora said the country was lagging behind in completing projects like the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) or Kaveri engine even two decades after they were taken up.   “The government must encourage the private sector by assuring firm orders to recover investments made in developing the technologies and products. Ban on defence exports by the private sector should be lifted to ensure the industry attracts more entrepreneurs, explore joint ventures with overseas firms and secure technology transfers,” Barbora pointed out.   Admitting developing sophisticated aerospace technologies takes longer time, Barbora said a sound national policy would enable the stakeholders to work in a time frame and provide the equipment required for the armed forces, especially the IAF, which was spending billions of dollars in buying aircraft and spare parts from global aerospace majors.   “If we don’t produce in time, others will take advantage of our delays and sell their products to us. The Indian aerospace industry should not only produce for defence and civil aviation sectors, but also to export,” Barbora informed, adding Pakistan exports more than India does.

Nicomatic announces its policy to achieve the EN 9100 certificate by the end of 2009. Indeed, one of the company's priorities is to further develop their interconnect solutions for the avionics and space field. Olivier Nicollin, Nicomatic's CEO, said: "One of the few existing methods to reach a strong long-term position in this field is to fully invest oneself by clearly placing the company in the aeronautics."   More than a simple label, the EN 9100 certificate implicates the development of a quality system in permanence directed at the improvement of systems, products, services and performances. Olivier Nicollin said: "The first benefit that we will certainly gain from the EN 9100 is to be recognised worldwide as a partner of choice to the aerospace industry, and that's what we want."   The EN 9100 European standard includes ISO9001:2001 quality management system requirements and specifies 30% additional requirements for the aerospace industry. It is applicable to OEMs, but also increasingly applicable to suppliers like Nicomatic.
