X-ray Fluorescence technology has become a critical tool for the testing of electronics (components, printed circuits boards, and final products) for compliance to RoHS regulations (Restrictions of Hazardous Substances). While the recast of RoHS (aka RoHS2) did not change the elements of interest (Pb, Cd, Hg, etc), it has expanded the industries and supply chains that are affected to now include medical equipment manufacturers, control instruments, ...

Nitrogen provides a suitable protective atmosphere for soldering processes. Wave soldering, selective soldering and reflow soldering are processes for joining different materials. Such processes are usually carried out in an inert gas atmosphere composed of nitrogen in order to ensure high product quality. In this regard, the use of nitrogen serves the purpose of producing high-quality solder joints. Nitrogen provides a suitable environment for avoiding oxidation and helps to prevent the adverse effects of oxygen ...

Few industries face the mounting challenges and scrutiny of expanding environmental compliance requirements, ecological mandates, consumer expectations and NGO watch groups as much as electronics and medical device manufacturers. Even before the Sony PlayStation cadmium crisis, the entire supply chain has been inundated by an ever-expanding myriad of legislation, ranging from the EU Directives on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), the restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS) and the Registration, ...

Polymers and plastics are materials composed of repeating hydrocarbon structural units, typically connected by covalent chemical bonds. Today, polymers can be found everywhere, with a range of applications far exceeding that of any other traditional material, from packaging materials, adhesives, foams, plastic containers, textiles, fibers, and construction parts in airplanes and automobiles. The list of polymers includes: Rubber, Bakelite, Neoprene, Polypropylene (PP), Polystyrene (PS), High impact polystyrene ...

European Union (EC) environmental legislation contributes towards a better environment but has significant implications for many manufacturing companies in terms of marketing, design, manufacturing, and "end-of-life" recovery and recycling. The Directives on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), 2002/96/EC, and the Restriction of Use of Certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS), 2002/95/EC, will require producers to recycle waste electrical/electronic equipment and remove certain hazardous substances. ...

There is no secret that in the EU, every sphere of the industry that concerns production falls under different regulations that concern waste exposure and recycled materials usage. When it comes to electronics, there are two directives that regulate the issues: RoHS and WEEE. They regulate the existence and concentration of harmful substances in various categories of production (RoHS) and responsibility for the proper recycling of electrical equipment (WEEE). These regulations can prevent appearance on the EU ...
