Shock Control White Paper for Portable Electronics Designers
(Indianapolis, IN) "Shock Control for Portable Electronics", a white paper created by E-A-R Specialty Composites, is now available for download at www.earshockandvibe.com/whitepapers. This systematic review of the underlying science of shock and damping was created by E-A-R Specialty Composites to bring designers of portable electronics up-to-speed on how to approach shock control in small multi-featured electronics products.
March 21, 2005 — New ISODAMP. Molding Material from E-A-R Specialty Composites Now Available in Environmentally-Clean, Halogen-Free Formulation (Indianapolis, IN) Design engineers grappling with vibration and shock control issues in limited spaces, such as in most precision electronics products, can now access the same optimized shock and vibration control properties found in E-A-R Specialty Composites' highly regarded ISODAMP elastomers, in a new halogen-free injection-moldable formulation, ISODAMP C-8002.
January 30, 2003 — E-A-R Acoustical Foams Meets UL Smoke and Flame Standard TUFCOTE® H-Series SM acoustical foam, from E-A-R Specialty Composites, has been engineered for use in noise control applications that may include exposure to high levels of radiant heat. The sound-absorption product is faced with an aluminized polyester film that reflects radiant heat. The facing also protects the foam from soil and fluids. TUFCOTE H-SM foam is ideal for sound absorption in enclosed equipment, such as motors, generators, compressors and pumps.
July 8, 2002 — Tough New Composite Blocks Engine Noise, Reflects Heat TUFCOTE® RM-10-75 composite, a new product from E-A-R Specialty Composites, is engineered to perform both as a noise barrier and heat reflector for engine-driven vehicles and equipment, from buses and boats, to generators and pumps. The three-layer composite comprises a three-quarter-inch urethane foam decoupler, a 1 pound-per-square-foot flexible lead-free vinyl barrier and a top facing of aluminized, scrim-reinforced polyester. Applied with the barrier toward the noise and heat source, the...
February 5, 2002 — E-A-R Damping Material Stops Noise And Vibration In Equipment ISODAMP® C-1000 Series thermoplastics, highly damped vinyl materials from E-A-R Specialty Composites, provide vibration isolation, shock protection and noise control in a wide range of medical devices. Three formulations-C-1002, C-1100 and C-1105-are available as standard and custom-molded isolators, such as grommets, bushings, and equipment mounts and feet. C-1002 and C-1105 are extruded as sheet or roll materials as well, and come in a variety of standard thicknesses.
January 22, 2002 — E-A-R Offers Electronic-Grade Formulation Of CONFOR(R) Foam Two non-silicone formulations of highly damped, slow-recovery CONFOR® foam now are available from E-A-R Specialty Composites. Both CF-40E-a low-stiffness formulation-and CF-45E-a medium stiffness formulation-meet HF-I of Underwriter's Laboratory's UL94 flame standards, at 2-mm and 2.5-mm thicknesses.
December 4, 2001 — Acoustical Foams' Shiny Facings Deflect Heat, Block Dirt For noise control applications where radiant heat may degrade acoustical materials, E-A-R Specialty Composites offers TUFCOTE® RM and SM urethane foams, with reflective facings. The aluminized polyester facings protect the foam from soil and fluids. They also deflect radiant heat, such as that from a motor, and help to control the temperature of the foam. TUFCOTE RM and SM foams are commonly used to line engine compartments and enclosures for motor-driven equipment, such as pumps and...
