The iia Information Hub aims to provide material which will be of value to iia members. Information sources will be categorised so as to collate data into recognisable and useful areas of interest. We aim to ensure that listed categories are dynamic so that they can be updated to reflect changing areas of interest and concern.
The open access journal materials is preparing a special issue on Sustainable Reactive Processing of Raw Materials and Polymer Compounds to be published in December 2019. This Special Issue aims to presented a collection of the latest research on sustainable reactive processes for the chemical modification of raw ...
This joint Erasmus+ innovative training and teaching/learning program that aims to enhance the development and transfer knowledge in the application of ionizing radiation in materials processing. The presentation was given by Professor Andrzej Chmielewski of the Institute for Nuclear Chemistry and Technology, Warsaw, Poland. Radiation crosslinking for...
Crosslinked insulation and jacketing provide environmentally friendly wires and cables with improved performance properties such as resistance to abrasion, higher temperature use, chemical resistance and the ability to withstand greater mechanical forces. This White Paper was published by IBA in 2021. Click to access the IBA...
The attached presentation was given at IMRP19 by Roger Bryant of Huber Suhner AG. Irradiation of Cables, Wires and Heat Shrinkables.IMRP19...
This practical book addresses industrial radiation technologies. The new edition explores updates to emerging applications of ultraviolet (UV) and electron beam (EB) radiation to polymer processing. Table of Contents: Review of Elements of Radiation Science and Technology. Ultraviolet Electron Curing Equipment. Electron Beam Curing Equipment. UV...
The processing of polymers in order to improve material characteristics is the largest application of irradiation. Polymer materials are widely used in the healthcare and medical technology sector. MediScan and the University of Applied Sciences in Wels have collaborated to evaluate the effects of different types...
Joachim Gehring of BGS Beta-Gamma-Service, Germany presented this paper at IMRP 2006 in Kuala Lumpur. Irradiation of crosslinked components for industrial mass-production vehicles has been widely accepted for a long time because of the excellent cost to performance ratio. For example, in 1975 the Volkswagen Golf...
