Polymer Failure & Defects: Problem Solving $MM Case-Histories, Atlanta, OCT 4-6; Discount Ends JULY 15
This uniquely
practical and industry’s UN-RIVALED course, to be offered in Atlanta, USA, OCT 4-6, “Polymer Failure & Defects: Problem
Solving Case-Histories” has been attended by 500+ participants with
representation from premier global companies. A highlight of the course is the
presentation of 50+ Case-Histories of $MM business impact via skilled
investigation of problems; solutions backed by PATENTS, PUBLICATIONS in
prestigious journals & documented COMMERCIAL VALUE. There will be a major
presentation on “How to Identify Innovation Opportunities During Routine
Technical Operations”.

• EXAMPLE #1 of 50+ : During occasional longer breaks, the extruder froze resulting in lengthy tear-downs & cleaning, thus adversely affecting the productivity. "Melt-Polycondensation" was established as the root-cause. Rather than changing the “near Impossible” manufacturing process for the plastic resin, a change in lubricant system with an unexpected catalytic effect, solved the problem. The Case-History leading to $10M+ in preserved business will be discussed including technical fundamentals & product development.

• EXAMPLE #2 of 50+ : Multi-layered film upon shipping from Location-A to the Location-B shrank consistently by 0.5% along the TD creating "Nipping" problems during thermoforming. Upon returning the reject lots back to Location-A, only 0.2% shrinkage was identified, consistently. Both measurements were correct, although different. After understanding the root-cause, solution was based on handling the reversible effect of %RH differences at the A vs B locations and the irreversible effect of post-crystallization before slitting at Location-A.

• EXAMPLE #3 of 50+ : A
PET based soft drink bottle with opacity in the neck-region was measured for
its “Ultra-Precise Tm” vs a normal bottle. Based on this 1-measurement, it was
concluded beyond any doubt that the manufacturer 8,000 miles away had missed
the necessary 1-2% comonomer. Following initial denials and then later
confirmations via GC-MS, manufacturer took the corrective actions.

• EXAMPLE #4 of 50+ : Challenged
by a sale at stake led to the discovery of reactor induced memory in NYLONS
after 50 years of their existence. This led to proliferation of ideas for technical marketing; signing of a $37M/year contract being just one outcome !
