STRIX CONFÍA EN EL STANYL® DE DSM PARA EL TERMOSTATO DE LA CAFETERA “MOCCA ESPRESSO” DE BODUM
El Stanyl® TE250F6 46, una poliamida 46 reforzada con un 30% de fibra de vidrio de DSM Engineering Plastics, es el material usado para el conjunto interruptor / luz indicadora / pulsador en la cafetera Mocca de Bodum. Detrás de la pieza decorativa, un termostato activa el botón que reinicia la palanca en el control integral U44 de la marca Strix y el calentador de agua, unido herméticamente a la base de la cafetera. Dado que la palanca debe estar necesariamente situada cerca de la fuente de calor, el diseño aprovecha las propiedades mecánicas del Stanyl, a saber: elevada resistividad eléctrica en superfície y en volumen, rigidez y resistencia a temperaturas de 140º, resistencia a la fatiga y moldeabilidad.

Antibacterial Electrical Products Available Now
Although we use many different switches every day not many people realize that the switches they touch can also transmit disease. Bacteria present on our hands is transferred to a light switch once we touch it, bacteria accumulate on the switch and propagate. The bacteria are then transmitted to the next person who touches the switch. There can be many transfers and transmissions of infectious diseases through this method especially in public location. Polygiene technology from Perstorp AB of Sweden has been proven to kill many bacteria on contact and by doing so helps break the transmission path of disease.
