The article focuses on the newly developed charger with thermal regulation for lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. It notes that this charger has input overvoltage protection (OVP), which alleviates thermal concerns while maximizing the charge rate and it allows only authorized adapters, improving system safely. Moreover, operating details of this newly developed battery charger are discussed.

Provides information on the use of TiN (titanium nitride) which can prolong tool life, according to Bohler Edelstahl GmbH, steel company. Information on the use of an upgrade TiCN (Titanium carbon nitrate) for wear problems; Discussion on the economic cost of cuttign tool.

The article reports on the benefits of the method of joining two glass panes to each other and to the door components using the double sided, adhesive-coated, urethane-foam tape made by Norwood Industries Inc. The use of this foam tape will minimize the door's conductive heat losses and seal the joints between the two panes preventing air from leaking. It also function as thermal and moisture barrier. The foam incorporate a special moisture-absorbing additive that reduces condensation on exposed metal and glass surfaces.

Reports on the move of the Electronics Ceramics Division of the Carborundum Co. in starting the process of aluminum nitride, silicon carbide and boron nitride in replacement of beryllia in New York. Risk of developing cancer due to beryllia; Determination of the thermal conductivity properties; Provision of structural support for designs requiring mechanical strength.

The article reports on the use of the Gore-Tex for thermal management in base stations for transmitting signals for emerging WiMax data transmission systems. It used to replace heat exchangers and air conditioning units for outdoor stations. According to Bob Rodriguez, spokesman for Gore, it allows the use of direct air cooling and it has better thermal properties using ambient air. Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access or WiMAX is directed at transmitting data over long distances.

This article focuses on new products to tame the thermal density of end products caused by miniaturization and performance demands, introduced by several companies at the Electro '92. Elmwood Sensors Inc., introduced a line of patented solid-state thermal sensors. Thermalloy Cooling Module that offers up to nine times better performance than a heat sink. Big Industries Inc., introduced the Temprobe temperature kit that provides a means of rapid data acquisition without wiring or readout devices.

The article reports that Ohio State University and E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. researchers have created a molecular magnet that remains stable at high temperatures in Columbus, Ohio. The discovery could lead to major advances in electronics including longer-lasting recording tapes, optical disks and electro-magnetic shields to protect computers and mobile phones from stray signals.

In cold environments where liquid crystal displays (LCDs) react slowly or seize, transparent polyester heaters by electronics firm Elmwood Sensors Inc., bring the displays back to life. Elmwood combines the heaters with their thermistors, thermocouples, and thermal fuses to create custom-engineered heating assemblies.

The article reports on the diamond coatings formed when methane, hydrogen, and argon are fed into the plasma generator developed by a New Hampshire firm. The said process is derived on the induction of plasma generator that produces temperatures at 14000 Fahrenheit according by the TAFA Inc, in Concord. The growth rate of this plasma induction is 100 times bigger than the microwave process described by the physicist incharge of the project, William Kratochvil.
