Silicone Ceramics for the Auto Wash Industry
Ceramics in car wash refer to products that contain silicone or silica compounds that are applied to the car's paint to create a protective layer that is hydrophobic, glossy and durable. Ceramics in car wash are different from ceramic coatings in detailing, which are liquid polymers that chemically bond with the paint and require more skill and time to apply. Ceramics in car wash can be applied as a sealant, a wax or a shampoo. …
Where to Start With Process Simulation
Some might be unsure of where to begin with designing a new chemical process or simulating an existing process in general. The article titled "Don't Gamble With Physical Properties For Simulations" can be a great place to start.

The Use of Silicone Adhesives in Space Applications
This article may have been written a while ago (2003), but much of the information is still useful in today's aerospace sector. https://www.adhesivesmag.com/articles/85082-the-use-of-silicone-adhesives-in-space-applications
Experimentally Measuring VLLE
Systems like the one here allows researchers to measure the VLLE of binary systems, essential in process scaleup.  We combine computational methods with experimental data to ensure proper physical properties.  This information is used in engineering software to design a process.
Lab Distillation Column Options
Many chemists are familiar with standard Vigreux distillation column (left). These columns can be challenging to model on the lab scale. Fortunately, there are alternatives for process design at the lab scale such as a glass tray column (middle) and the jacketed version (right) for better heat transfer. These columns tend to model better and provide more insights into process scale-up. Find out how we couple computational chemistry, computational engineering, and experimentation for process development.
Introducing Thuban Innovations LLC
Physical properties of chemical systems can be lacking for some classes of compounds. A chemist and/or chemical engineer can generally have two options in obtaining these critically needed properties for a development of a process; experimentally or theoretically. Contact us today to find out how we can help with both options!
