    advice on actuators

    I'm looking for an electrically powered actuator for use with something like a stamping operation. It should have the following characteristics: Needs to travel 10mm in 1s, precision of movement not so important, but should have a soft "landing" at the end of its travel. Needs to apply a...

    functionalised polymer proton donors

    Hi - I am working on a product that requires a concentrated acid, but this product must also be non-toxic, non-corrosive, non-hazardous, and non-regulated. I looked into carborane superacid, but this stuff is too exotic and too expensive. Instead, I have been looking into ion-exchange resins...

    measuring the refractive index of glass microspheres

    I have some samples of ultra-high index glass microspheres. The microspheres are in various sizes from 50um to 300um, and the refractive index is reportedly 2.4, but I want to confirm this. The normal way for measuring the refractive index of glass microspheres is to immerse them in an oil of...

    impact resistance of thin glass on structural backing layer

    I am building a device comprised of a 0.5mm-1mm thin glass layer bonded to a rigid structural backing layer, and this device is required to be impact resistant. The impact resistance test for the glass is the ball-drop test, and I am wondering if there is a way of estimating what adhesive...
