Importance of Calculating Molarity

by norwegianprototypes December 27, 2019
written by norwegianprototypes

Molarity is very important in chemistry for one big reason. It is the measurement of concentration in any mixture. The molarity of any solution is a way to know the specific elements or compounds which are present in any solution. To calculate molarity, you divide the miles of a solute by the number of litters of its solutions. With molarity calculation, you can easily identify the exact amount of any element or compound in a solution.

Molarity formula

In the formula, mass is the mass of the solute represented in grams while volume is the total volume of solution represented in liters. There are many applications of molarity and calculating the dilution of a solution is one of them.

Molarity is used to explain the relationship between moles of a particular solute as well as the volume of the given solution.  In order to calculate your molarity, you have to first begin with moles & volumes, moles & milliliter and mass & volume. Adding all these variables to make one formulation can be a good morality calculate to provide you with the perfect answer.

What Are The Units Of Molarity?

There is a unit of a molar concentration and it is miles per cubic decimeter. It is represented as mol/dm³ and can also be represented as M which stands for a molar. In the past, chemists represented concentration as the weight of a volume or solute but in present times, considering mole gas becomes a common way of quotation on the quantity of chemical substance, the term molarity has been used commonly instead.

 It is important to note that molarity and molality are not the same terms. The latter is usually written in lower case where the former is always written in uppercase.

How to Calculate Molarity

Calculating Molarity

Calculating molarity has been made a lot easier with the use of a Molarity calculator.

It is used to calculate

  • The compound of a known mass to a desired concentration
  • Mass of a compound necessary in preparing a solution of known concentration and volume.
  • The volume of a substance needed to dissolve a compound of already known mass to the desired concentration.

In a molarity calculator, mass (m) is the amount of matter present in any substance. It has a constant value and is not affected by gravity. Molar concentration is the amount of solute which is present in a single unit of a solution. It is represented as M, molar. And formula weight is the sum of an atomic weight present in all atoms in any given empirical formula.

When it comes to making molar solutions, it might not seem like much of a hassle as long as you remember the formula accurately. However, there could be confusing times during this calculation and also during a unit conversion. An online molarity calculator has been designed to give you instant results and make it a lot more accessible and easier to calculate your molarity and acquire the necessary information.

Your PTFE Cookware Is Still The Best Option

by norwegianprototypes December 26, 2019
written by norwegianprototypes

You obviously love to use your non-stick cooking pan to prepare meals. Not only is it ideal for making flawless omelets but also cooking easy-to-flip pancakes coupled with fish to perfection. Even so, you should be aware of what your pans are made of. It would help if you also were concerned with your health. In this article, we shall address some of the major concerns most users have when it comes to the best applications of Teflon wire in cookware.

Let us begin. PTFE and PFOA are human-made chemicals. They are utilized in the manufacture of non-stick cookware. In this guide, you will have a detailed comprehension of both materials, including why they are used in designing cookware. You will also learn why it is crucial to watch your health after investing in PTFE cookware.

As you have learned in our previous series of PTFE, this is a plastic element made of silicon. It also has carbon and fluorine. When looking at the chemical breakdown of this material, every molecule of the element has two carbon atoms coupled with four fluorine atoms. The combination makes up the substance utilized to spray the surface of non-stick pans.

PTFE was initially discovered by Roy Plunkett, a prominent scientist, in 1938. Over the years, it earned its brand name, Teflon. It also became a famous material used in designing non-stick cookware. But this material is not just used for designing cookware. It is also an ideal compound for developing elements in industrial and manufacturing sectors. PTFE, as you have learned in our earlier blog posts, has been revolutionizing lives across the world- it is prominent for its use in automobiles and electronics as well as aerospace in high-tech products. Now that you know why PTFE is used in cookware and why it is the ideal option, it is essential to look at PFOA, its counterpart in the industry.  

PTFE In Cookware

PFOA is also known as perfluorooctanoic acid.  This is also a human-made compound utilized in the manufacture of non-stick cooking pans. It is also used in manufacturing stain-resistant fabrics as well as carpets. You should note that PFOA is used in the production of PTFE. Their chemical composition is different. Over the years, people have raised concerns over the health risks posed by PFOA since it has a way of staying in the body and the environment at large. Several studies have been spearheaded on PFOA’s safety.

Results have indicated that the chemical found within the compound in the present in small amounts in most consumers. People living near water sources that have been contaminated with PFOA are at higher risks of contracting water-borne diseases. Further health studies on PFOA and PTFE indicated that individuals exposed to PFOA’s chemicals are exposed to health issues such as:

  • Liver damage
  • Testicular cancer
  • Blood pressure

This implies that PFOA is not the best coating compound for non-stick cookware.

Take-Home

When PFOA is used in designing non-stick pans, it is often evident that the exposure to consumers is pretty much on the lower side. However, over time, it can contribute to health risks, as indicated above. Teflon is, however, a better coating option since it does not burn off in the cooking process.

Business Stickers to Boost Promotional Activities

by norwegianprototypes November 1, 2019
written by norwegianprototypes

Using custom business stickers (know more) has been of great help in promoting businesses and ideas in the last three decades. The importance of business stickers has shown itself in how it helped politicians win elections, grown startup companies and helped in advertising. Even with these statistics, they are still economical by all standards.

It is surprising to note that not enough attention is being paid to the importance of stickers in businesses today.

Reasons to Consider Custom Business Stickers

Custom business stickers are not just for bumpers

Gone are the days when stickers are limited to car bumpers when all stickers had the same boring look. Big white triangular stickers solely made for car bumpers. Now there are all sorts of custom stickers in different shapes and sizes used for different kinds of promotional purposes.

Today, you can place stickers on any and everything including windows, doors, laptops, smartphones, water bottles and a lot more.

Connecting the old school way

Business stickers are an offline physical form of social media. Posting, pinning, liking and tagging which are all social media terms started with the use of custom stickers. 

The importance of stickers cannot be overemphasized. If properly designed and well distributed will continually be a great source of cheap publicity.

Business Stickers

Business stickers go well with the word of mouth

One of the greatest tools for marketing is the word of mouth. It’s a wrong notion to think that offline publicity is not as effective as online publicity. Offline publicity unlike social media deals with a lot of word of mouth endorsements from known acquaintances.

A lot of people tend to trust these more random adverts. Custom stickers are the perfect means of enhancing word of mouth.

Friendly or subtle marketing

Unlike social media marketing, business stickers are more engaging. With the torrent of adverts coming up daily on social media it’s easy for yours to get overlooked.

Custom stickers tend to be more friendly, a form of personal endorsement. It most times will not come off as advertising rather will look more like a badge that endorses and idea or product.

Business Stickers

A gift

In any form it is used, a sticker will still be affordable, whether posted on objects or just handed out. Unlike other means of publicity like flyers or posters stickers are not easily discarded. They are more valuable and can keep the recipient engaged for a very long time.

The thought of how to use it would occupy their minds getting them accustomed to its purpose. The recipient might even see it as a gift. This shows the importance of stickers in promoting your business. It is also a form of in your face advert. It can be viewed by the same persona a thousand times and over in a day.

This way it becomes part of their subconscious and they will never forget you. You become their first point of call when a related service is needed.

Business stickers are good for branding purposes

Business stickers are not only to be handed out but also serve as a cheap form of branding for products. Sticking a custom sticker to your packaging, product or service equipment could go a long way in publicizing your business.

In as much as word of mouth is good, you cannot always rely on other people to be your advocates. Placing a sticker on everything that goes out from you would have effectively endorse yourself without being present there. You just killed two stones with one bed, branding and advertising.

Business Stickers

Personal marketing/distinctiveness

Like in every other form of publicity (logo, flyer, billboard, onscreen adverts and so on). There are specific questions to ask before designing. This will help in clarifying and focusing on the right audience to target. It also will help your distribution tactic. The following are the must ask questions.

  • Who do I want to connect with (who are my targeted market)?
  • Where are they? How do I connect with them?
  • What interests them (what is their want/need)?
  • What is my distinctive offer am I proffering, message (identity)?
  • How do I send and transmit my message/identity clearly, graphically, simply and quickly to my target market and prospects?

It complements and enhances other marketing tools

Apart from being used for branding and exposure, stickers can also be used to enhance other forms of publicity. For instance, while doing publicity on social media you could exchange stickers for people addresses.

You can also use a sticker to pass on a piece of information by writing on the back of it. The importance of stickers is in its versatility, its ability to function for different things under different occasions. It can become a tool to strengthen communication, more often than not it is always sending direct messages.

A well-designed sticker and an interesting sticker campaign can result in a very successful public relations campaign.

Business Stickers

Business stickers can become a product that is profitable

When you have a good sticker it can become a product on it is own. The right slogan, great brand name or logo image can become so profitable that people wouldn’t mind paying for it. You don’t have to be a big brand like LG or SAMSUNG to achieve this.

All you need is your uniqueness and great brand advocates. Your targeted market should also be interested in. This way you can create a brand that is valuable enough for people to want to showcase it. People wouldn’t mind identifying with it.

Again the importance of stickers cannot be overemphasized, stickers can go farther than any other marketing tool would.

While trying to publicize your business with the stickers, also put into consideration your customer’s preferences and needs. Make sure your stickers fit into their needs as well as yours, it should work for both your needs.

Business Stickers

Conclusion

Your brand can do better with the addition of business stickers to your publicity material. It is a marketing strategy that will always be in vogue and will go farther than any other tool.

Mistakes To Avoid When Designing For Injection Molding

by norwegianprototypes October 30, 2019
written by norwegianprototypes

Injection molding requires that the plastic wall thickness be stable enough in order to maintain the overall structure and quality. If you are not so sure about the recommended wall thickness, keep reading because we have put together a couple of tips to guide you and prevent you from making some big mistakes that compromise the integrity of the final product.

Apart from the thickness, what other factors should you consider?

Besides the thickness of the product walls, there are other factors that you also need to keep in mind so that you’re in a better position to determine how thick or thin the wall should be. These factors are:

  1. Will the wall be used for structure?
  2. If a certain part is made thin, will it be fragile?
  3. Does the material you use affect thickness?

Generally speaking, there are three main variables that you must consider which are very important when it comes to determining the thickness: the material composition, the flow rate, and the part yield.

Designing For Injection Molding
  1. Material Composition. The composition of the material determines its stiffness and strength characteristics. The stiffness refers to how the material bends when a force is applied and strength refers to the material’s ability to withstand fracturing.  
  2. Flow Rate. This refers to the rate at which the molten material will flow into a mold. Problems with the flow rate can cause mistakes like voids and sink marks.
  3. Part Yield. This refers to the ratio of good parts to bad parts. Thin walls count as low part yield and need to be discarded. This results in unnecessary losses for the manufacturer which also leads to delays.

What most manufacturers do is set a consistent wall thickness regardless of what material they’re using. However, others make necessary adjustments depending on what material is being used.

Is There a Recommended Wall Thickness For Injection Molded Parts?

It’s very important that you work with manufacturers to help you select materials and their appropriate thickness. Working with professionals ensures that the parts that you end up with are cost-effective and are produced in a timely manner. Generally, the thickness of the parts depends on the material being used.

Injection molding is a very reliable process that has gained popularity over the years. Its biggest advantage is that adjustments can be made so that the end product fits your specific needs. On average, the minimum wall thickness of the parts ranges from 2mm to 4mm/

Designing For Injection Molding

Mistakes to avoid during injection molding

This manufacturing process involved the creation of molds that are made using either hardened steel or aluminum. The mold takes the form of a pre-determined shape, usually after the molten material is fed into a cavity where it then cools and hardens.

It’s every manufacturer to create high precision parts. However, it’s not uncommon for them to face some challenges during production. Here are 3 common mistakes that manufacturers should avoid:

  • Making non-uniform walls

The thinner’s parts of non-uniform walls cool off quickly while the thicker sections cool off much slower. As the thick parts cool down, cracks may occur.

If the need for non-uniform sections is unavoidable, the molding of the different sections should be done gradually.

  • Not utilizing draft

These drafts make it easy for the parts to be removed from the mold. They must be in an offset angle parallel to the mold opening and closing.

  • Making sharp corners

Sharp corners are known to cause part failure after the stress concentration to get high. To minimize the stress concentration, increase the radius.

A Look At The Three Main Types Of Press Brakes

by norwegianprototypes October 30, 2019
written by norwegianprototypes

Technological advancements have radically transformed the operational mechanism of press brakes. From the traditional manual to CNC press brakes, there is a differential technological advancement in each type. Each type comes unique features and qualities that make them suitable in a different operational environment. If you are shopping for a press brake or its spare parts, read this article to garner a few useful ideas regarding different types of press brakes.

  • Hydraulic Press Brake
Press Brakes

Hydraulic press brakes rely on two synchronized cylinders as the source of the force that bends metal sheets during fabrication. The bottles are responsible for the movement of the ram, which generates the bending force. However, in some cases, the synchronization occurs on torsion bars, which are used to create the required force. Others also use a hybrid system comprising of both torsion bars or cylinders and electricity. The torsion bars or cylinders can be synchronized to move downward or upward to create the bending force. It uses a computerized system and comes with accuracy levels.  

  • Manual Press Brake

Considered an industry-standard; manual press brake generates bending force through the mechanical movement of the ram. The ram is moved vertically by applying force on the flywheel. The force applied to the wheel will determine the bending force exerted by the ram. The flywheel moves the crank, which in turn causes the ram to move vertically. Manual press brakes are very common due to ease of operation for individuals with technical know-how and relatively low cost. However, it is tedious when producing different batches of fabrication tasks. For each batch, the operator must manually readjust the bending angles and bending sizes with pinpoint accuracy.

Press Brakes
  • Press Brake

This is the most technologically advanced type of press brake. It uses a computer control system to achieve greater and high-performance levels and precision compared to other press brake types. CNC press brakes use a combination of both hydraulic and servo-electric mechanisms to generate bending force.

The computer controls add a touch of operational efficiency and accuracy, especially for repeat positioning. Due to automation, CNC press brakes are also easier to operate compared to other types of press brakes.

All the operator needs is system controller competency and keying in figures for bending sizes and bending angles. Despite the uniformity of final products in any given batch, CNC press brakes are costly. They may set you back several thousands of dollars.

Take-Home

Press brakes can be a great addition to your metal fabrication business. They are highly accurate and produce uniform end products. Their high-performance capability also means that you can complete several fabrication jobs within a short period. However, it is imperative to understand their different types to enjoy maximum benefit from your press brake. Press brakes differ depending on their operational mechanisms and source of bending force. More advanced press brakes such as hydraulic and CNC machines have computer control systems.
