Wherever chemical processes are involved, in order to protect people and the environment the focus is always on process reliability. Pumps are an integral part of the process and play a particularly important role. One company gives an overview of how its double diaphragm pumps are prioritizing performance and failure protection.
Taking the time to implement effective safety measures in paint and coatings production is not just a legal duty. It’s also an ethical imperative that shows workers you care about their welfare. Not to mention that fewer accidents tend to maximize productivity and efficiency. Read about what safety measures are important areas to focus on.
Researchers at the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering explore using piezoelectric nanoparticles for smart material design. The team discovered a key role for friction between particles in causing the materials to flip from a fluid to a more solid structure. Potential applications are paint that does not clump, liquids that harden into a mold when shaken, and wearable protective gear that stiffens when hit.
