Polyethylene (PE) has several types and different material properties depending on the length and number of its side chain branches. From the melting peak of crystalline polyethylene, we measured the melting point and crystallinity using DSC and compared them for each type of polyethylene. LDPE, which has many long side chains and is less dense, resulted in a low melting point and low crystallinity, while HDPE, which tends to be denser, showed high values for both melting point and crystallinity. Additionally, LLDPE, which has many relatively short side chains and is more likely to be dense than LDPE, exhibited intermediate values for both melting point and crystallinity between LDPE and HDPE. [Types of Polyethylene] ■ LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene): Low rigidity and high flexibility ■ LLDPE (Linear Low-Density Polyethylene): Tougher than LDPE but has inferior processability ■ HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene): High rigidity and excellent tensile strength, impact strength, and hardness

Liquid crystal displays use various organic materials, including liquid crystals, sealing materials, encapsulants, and polarizers. Considering the material properties and degradation mechanisms of each component from a chemical perspective is important for product evaluation and failure analysis. This document presents examples of chemical analyses for the components of liquid crystal displays. 【Examples of Chemical Analysis】 ■FT-IR: Principal component analysis ■EDX: Elemental analysis ■GCMS: Liquid crystal component analysis ■HS-GCMS: Outgassing analysis (degradation analysis) and others

"Laminating film" is used in various industries for the purpose of protecting the display surface while maintaining the visibility of printed materials by utilizing highly transparent materials. During processing, heat bonding is performed, so it is assumed that the molecular state changes compared to before processing. In this study, we attempted to clarify the residual stress remaining in the product by comparing conditions with and without heat applied to the laminating film, using birefringence. This document presents measurement results using a laminating film composed of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) as an example. [Contents] ■ Measurement of glass transition temperature by DSC ■ Measurement of birefringence by WPA ■ Effects of combining PET and EVA You can view related products and catalogs.

The introduction of the "FIB-SEM Helios 5 UC" is scheduled to start service in November. We will provide shorter delivery times and reliable feedback than before. We will achieve high-throughput cross-sectional observation and analysis of a wide range of materials, from semiconductor devices such as power devices, ICs, solar cells, and light-emitting elements to electronic components like MLCCs and soft materials. With a high-quality beam of up to 100nA, we can process large areas at high speed, and by finishing the FIB at low acceleration, it is possible to produce high-quality samples with minimal damage layers. You can view related products and catalogs.
