Technical Presentations
“Troubleshooting Rubber to Substrate Bond Failures”; Justin Pflug, Application Specialist for Rubber and Urethane to Substrate Bonding, H.M. Royal
This presentation will elaborate on the many ways that bonded components fail, how to prevent those failures, and how to troubleshoot the failures that aren’t prevented.
“Conductive Silicone Technology”; Steve Griffin, Director of Business Development, RDAbbott
Silicone rubber is widely recognized for its exceptional insulating properties—but with the right material technologies, it can also become an excellent conductor. This presentation will explore how the electrical characteristics of silicone elastomers can be fundamentally altered using conductive fillers, enabling new solutions for industries requiring conductivity ranges from static-dissipative up to and including electrostatic dissipation (ESD), and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. This session will provide practical knowledge for engineers and designers looking to leverage conductive silicone technologies for enhanced product performance and market differentiation.
