Silicone Masking Tape Bonds without Adhesive
Mocap's silicone rubber X-Treme Tape is a self-bonding, flexible
masking tape that stretches and wraps to conform to irregular
shapes and features without adhesive, eliminating the need for
secondary cleanup after high-temperature processing. Available
in a variety of widths, lengths and colors, the tape is designed to
protect and mask during plating and conformal coating, as well as
high-temperature powder coating. According to Mocap, in many
cases, it can eliminate
the requirement for a
"custom" mask. It will
resist temperatures
as high as 500°F
(260°C) and remove
easily, the company
says.

Fischer Technology offers a variety of devices that use instrumented indentation technology to measure mechanical properties
such as hardness, modulus and creep of micro- and nano-scale
coatings, components, cross-sections and modified surfaces.
The FischerScope HM2000S and HM2000 both investigate
mechanical properties of materials in the micro- and nanometer
range, and the HM2000 also offers motorized X, Y and Z tables for
complete automation. The company's Picodentor HM500 features
an ultra-high-resolution nano-indentation head that measures in
the nanometer range and also offers motorized X, Y and Z tables.
