NanoScale Material Stewardship Seminar

btran@ianano.org — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 20:22:25 +0100

Short description

Join the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the California Environmental Protection Agency (CALEPA) to discuss new initiatives and implement mutually beneficial standards for nanoparticles.

Long description

Join the International Association of Nanotechnology, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (CDTSC) on Wednesday, August 13, to provide input on new initiatives and regulations underway concerning nanotechnology.

At the beginning of this year, the USEPA launched its Nanoscale Materials Stewardship Program to help provide a firmer scientific foundation for regulatory decisions by encouraging voluntary submission and development of information, including risk management practices for nanoscale materials. The stewardship program encourages participants – including manufacturers – to develop and report data on nanomaterials.

New State laws also provide a mechanism for state agencies to collaborate with chemical manufacturers to develop information such as analytical test methods, fate and transport in the environment, bioconcentration and other relevant information for chemicals manufactured or imported in the State. Under this new law, for instance, manufacturers may be required to provide information about chemical upon the request of that State, within a year of the request.

The State of California is also becoming involved with nanomaterials, including a new regulatory approach the Department of Toxic Substances Control is undertaking to compile relevant information on nanomaterials, as well as other chemicals. Chapter 699, Sections 57018-57020 became part of the Health and Safety Code in California in 2006. This new law provides a mechanism for state agencies to collaborate with chemical manufacturers to develop information such as analytical test methods, fate and transport in the environment, bioconcentration and other relevant information for chemicals manufactured or imported in the State. Included in the law is the requirement that manufacturers shall provide specified information about chemicals of concern within a year of the Department's request."

Jim Alwood, from USEPA’s Chemical Control Division in Washington, D.C., will discuss his agency’s nanotechnology program, including an overview of the Toxic Substances Control Act and the Nanoscale Materials Stewardship Program. Dr. Jeff Wong, Chief Scientist for the DTSC, will highlight the main provisions of the new state law and how the Department and the nano industry can work together in implementing it.

Take advantage of this unique opportunity to network and dialogue with industry partners, government representatives and manufacturers as these new rules and regulations are put into place!

Who Should Attend:

1. Representatives from companies that manufacture, import, process, or use nanoscale materials for commercial purposes, including those who:

* Manufacture or import engineered nanoscale materials;
* Physically or chemically modify or process an engineered nanoscale material;
* Physically or chemically modify or process a non-nanoscale material to create an engineered nanoscale material; or
* Use engineered nanoscale materials in the manufacture of a product.

2. Researchers who develop or study engineered nanoscale materials.

3. Business professionals interested in public policy and potential standards related to nanotechnology.

BudgetSensors Introduces a Calibration Standard with 500nm Step Height

BudgetSensors — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 12:53:35 +0100

Short description

BudgetSensors® introduces AFM Height Calibration Standard

Article body

Sofia, Bulgaria – 31st July 2008

Following the introduction of the AFM height calibration standards HS-100MG and the HS-20MG, BudgetSensors, the Bulgarian manufacturer of silicon and silicon nitride probes, as well as AFM accessories for Atomic Force Microscopes (AFM), announces the commercial introduction of third type of AFM height calibration standard – the HS-500MG.

Just as the height calibration standards HS-100MG and the HS-20MG, the HS-500MG features silicon dioxide structure arrays on a 5x5mm silicon chip. The fabrication process guarantees excellent uniformity of the structures across the chip. This in turn ensures easy and reliable Z-axis calibration of any AFM system.

Arrays of structures with different shape and pitch are integrated on each chip.
Aside from Z-axis calibration, this design also allows X- and Y-axis calibration for bigger scanners (40-100µm range).

The HS-500MG features structures with 500nm step height.
With the introduction of the HS-500MG BudgetSensors customers can choose between height calibration standards with 3 different step heights: 20nm, 100nm and 500nm.

For more detailed product specifications, please visit www.budgetsensors.com/calibration_standards.html or www.budgetsensors.com .

More calibration standards by BudgetSensors® are under development.

BudgetSensors® Introduces All-In-One AFM Probes

BudgetSensors — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 12:01:52 +0100

Short description

BudgetSensors® introduces All-In-One AFM Probes

Article body

Sofia, Bulgaria – 29th July 2008

BudgetSensors®, a Bulgarian manufacturer of silicon and silicon nitride probes, as well as AFM accessories for Atomic Force Microscopes (AFM), announces the commercial introduction of the “All-In-One AFM Probe” - a versatile silicon AFM probe with 4 different cantilevers on a single holder chip.

All-In-One AFM probes (Order Code: AIO and AIOAl) feature cantilevers for Tapping Mode, Soft Tapping Mode, Force Modulation and Contact Mode on one and the same holder chip.
They are made of monolithic silicon and offer excellent uniformity and reliable performance.

The main advantage of this product compared to regular, single-cantilever AFM probes is the freedom to choose in the very last moment the right cantilever for each application.
AFM users don’t need to stock various AFM Probe types any more. Nevertheless, this product is not meant as a substitution to comparable single-cantilever АFM probes, because the geometry of each one of the All-In-One cantilevers differs from the geometry of comparable specialized single-cantilever AFM probes.

All-In-One AFM Probes are offered without any coatings (Order Code: AIO) and with an aluminium reflex coating on the back side of the cantilever (Order Code: AIOAl).

For detailed product specifications, please visit www.budgetsensors.com/all_in_one.html.

More new products, which are under development in BudgetSensors’ R&D centre, will be released soon.

Welcome to viyas LK Inter, our product is Yttria Stabilized Zirconia Bead (EZ-bead) & Zirconia powder (EZ-powder) . Our company is set up to provide zirconium with high quality (you can see the test report comparing to Japan leading brand) but reasonable price. The success and growth of our company is the result of responding to customer's needs and delivering the right material. It's convenient for you to find us on the internet. ( http://www.wowzen.com/ )

The advantage of our zirconia bead (EZ-BEAD)

High Dense‧Small Grain Size
Near nano zirconia powder is used for the grinding beads to achieve almost theoretical density, hardness and toughness. Together with special forming process, our YSZ beads have superior micro-structure and physical properties which provides extreme wear resistance and life-time for high speed milling process.

Always Shiny Surface Condition
Shiny surface throughout life-time results from high dense internal structure and stable chemical composition. It reduces friction between bead-bead and bead-grinding chamber which benefits temperature control, energy saving, and avoiding damage of the chamber inner wall. On the other hand, always shiny beads are easy to clean which provides time saving when changing product lines and minimizes cross contamination as well.

Superior Roundness and Narrow size distribution
Size distribution and roundness of the beads play the key contribution of milling efficiency.Our YSZ beads, with roundness
over 96% and precise sieving size control, provides best the milling efficiency.

Purpose : To analyze the beads (Ceno bead from famous Korea bead maker ) that sent by customer
Brief :
Compare with beads that provided by LK Inter, customer’s sample ( Ceno-bead) has poor density and crushing load which will lead to bead breakage during high speed milling. This is due to “hole” inside the bead body.
The surface condition and roundness of beads that provided by customer are also much worse that that by LK Inter. Poor surface smoothness and “egg-like” beads tend to cause high friction which results in high wear of the machine and high temperature of the milling slurry.
Beads provided by LK-Inter has wider distribution than customer’s. It is due to the distribution can be controlled by sieving , it can be adjusted.

Data :
1. Density
LK Inter (EZ-bead): 6.038 g/cm3
Customer’s : 5.885 g/cm3
