SABIC debuts at Automotive Interiors Expo 2019 paintable LNP™ LUBRICOMP™ compounds to reduce buzz, squeak and rattle
SABIC is introducing here today at Automotive Interiors Expo 2019 (Booth #A118) two new LNP™ LUBRICOMP™ compounds, developed to help mitigate buzz, squeak and rattle (BSR) noises in vehicle cabins. These injection moldable compounds, a polycarbonate/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (PC/ABS) grade and a polycarbonate/acrylonitrile styrene acrylate (PC/ASA) grade, provide a low-gloss finish to meet general preferences for automotive interior decorative parts. Compared to silicone lubricants, which have the potential to leach out and interfere with paint adhesion, and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) lubricants, which can limit paint choices, the new products feature a proprietary internal lubrication technology and deliver excellent paintability.

TE Connectivity presenta los conectores AMPMODU con pasos de 2 mm para transmisiones de señal de placa
TE Connectivity (TE), líder mundial en conexión y sensores, está ampliando su gama de soluciones de interconexión AMPMODU con el lanzamiento de conectores de placa de paso de 2 mm. Estos nuevos conectores ocupan un espacio un 38 por ciento inferior a los productos tradicionales de paso de 2,54 mm (0,1 pulgadas), pero cubren de forma fiable y económica los requisitos de interconexión y de embalaje de los sofisticados componentes electrónicos tan miniaturizados de hoy en día. Estos productos están diseñados para utilizarse en distintos segmentos industriales en los que preocupan especialmente las limitaciones de espacio. Las aplicaciones potenciales son dispositivos PLC y otros dispositivos E/S, servoactuadores, control y automatización industrial, robótica industrial, instrumental y equipos de ensayo y dispositivos para la automatización de edificios y del hogar. Entre los nuevos productos de 2 mm se hallan conectores de cabecera extraíbles y conectores hembra de placa a placa, y en ambos casos y para facilitar la fabricación hay posibilidad de montaje en superficie automatizado, reflujo de agujero pasante (Pin-in-Paste) y métodos de montaje de agujero pasante tradicionales.
