3D graphene: MIT scientists develop super-light, super-strong structure

Weston Williams for The Christian Science Monitor:  Many scientists consider graphene to be one of the most potentially useful materials ever created. The atom-thick chain of carbon atoms are strong, light, and promise many applications, from energy storage to pollution removal to waterproof coating. While graphene has been studied since the 1940s, scientists have had considerable trouble constructing it into a structurally useful form on a three-dimensional level. But now, scientists at MIT have figured out how to build up graphene into useful, 3-D shapes with the potential to be lighter and stronger than steel. The new research marks an important step forward for the material. The hexagonal structure is essentially an "unrolled" carbon nanotube only an atom thick, usually only functional on a two-dimensional level. Despite this limitation, graphene is more than 100 times stronger than steel, and converting that two-dimensional strength into a structure usable for three-dimensional building materials has for years been something of a holy grail for graphene researchers. And now, scientists may be one step closer to that conversion.   Cont'd...

Manufacturers most upbeat in two years, ISM survey shows

Jeffrey Bartash for MarketWatch:  American manufacturers finished 2016 on a wave of optimism, as a survey of executives hit the highest level in two years.  The Institute for Supply Management said its manufacturing index climbed to 54.7% in December from 53.2%, slightly higher than the MarketWatch forecast. Any number above 50% signals expansion. The index is compiled from a survey of executives who order raw materials and other supplies for their companies. The gauge tends to rise or fall in tandem with the health of the economy. New orders and production surged in the final month of the year and plans for employment also edged higher. Bradley Holcomb, chairman of the ISM survey committee, said comments from executives were largely positive.   Cont'd...

Optimizing Processes For Food and Beverage Industry Webinar

Optimizing Processes For Food and Beverage Industry Webinar

Compressed air is used in nearly all industry types within the manufacturing sector. Since it is also one of the most expensive resources in the manufacturing environment, optimizing your compressed air system for specific applications is beneficial. This webinar will focus on applications in the Food and Beverage Industry. We'll highlight the benefits of employing an intelligent compressed air solution for tasks ranging from simple liquid spill clean-up to more complex packaging and labeling applications. We'll also look at more innovative solutions with an automation twist to perform product movements and rejections based on quality control inputs. We will discuss several examples from the food and beverage industry to highlight these benefits and show their universal nature for other sectors.
