Water plays an important role in the paper manufacturing process. It help fibers to flow from the apparatus which then de-fibers the wood pulp down to the manufacturing wire. The flow of water can be recycled due to technological developments. The remaining waste such as bacteria, fungi, yeast, ... Read more

Liquid-crystal polymers (LCPs) are a class of aromatic polymers. They are unreactive and inert, resistant to fire, and perform well under harsh environments. LCPs offer high resistance to heat, electricity, and tolerance to chemical-resistance. These properties allow these components ... Read more
