The Rubber Division ACS, announces May learning opportunities
Akron, OH – Check out these upcoming training opportunities for May from the Rubber Division, ACS.
May 4 – Webinar: Managing Scientists & Engineers
May 8 – Course: Elastomers for Selective Gas Separation, including Carbon Capture
May 11 – Webinar: Optimizing Rubber Molding Process through Advanced Simulations
May 23-26 – Endurica Workshop: Application of Rubber Fatigue Analysis with Endurica Software
May 24 – Course: Essentials of Silicone Rubber
May 25 – Course: Setting Up a Rubber Molding Process
On Fridays starting May 5 – August 18, 11:30 a.m. – 1 p.m. ET a new series where you will hear from 16 different Rubber Division, ACS corporate member companies who will introduce common materials utilized in rubber formulations including different types of polymers, fillers, oils, cure systems and additives will begin.
May 8 – Elastomers for Selective Gas Separation, including Carbon Capture: This course is designed for researchers and technologists in both the rubber and membrane industries, since the use of various types of elastomeric membranes to permit selective permeation of gases will be presented. Of particular interest here will be the use of such elastomeric membranes to selectively remove CO2 (carbon capture) from various industrial waste streams, as well as from confined environments and biomedical devices.
May 24 – Essentials of Silicone Rubber: This course is designed to provide participants with a thorough understanding of silicone’s engineering characteristics. It will take you from creation of silicone from sand through formulating the compound and the various methods by which silicone can be fabricated into useful service articles. The subject matter will deal with the differences between high consistency rubber, caulks and the various liquid silicone rubbers. This course is suitable for those having various degrees of knowledge in silicone materials and applications.
May 25 – Setting Up a Rubber Molding Process: This course is designed to show how to establish a rubber molding process based on cross link density. It is designed to show the influence of cross link density on mechanical properties, as well as its influence on de-molding. The overall focus is the design of a rubber molding process that yields the most consistent properties.
