Lambient Technologies
We develop instruments, sensors, and software for monitoring and measuring the properties of curing polymers. These properties provide unique insights into the chemistry, formulation, reaction rate, viscosity, and cure state of epoxies, polystyrenes, polyurethanes, silicones, SMC, BMC, and other thermoset materials.

Dielectric/Conductivity Sensor
VariconTM
The Varicon sensor is designed for use in presses, molds, bulk materials or laminates where a thin, flexible dielectric sensor is necessary. The Varicon sensor is thin enough to be implanted within a sample or between the plies of a laminate and may be discarded after use. Patterned on a polyimide substrate, the electrode array is designed to allow a choice of three sensitivities, which are selected by cutting off portions of the array at designated lines.

Dielectric/Conductivity Sensor
Mini-VariconTM
The Mini-Varicon sensor is a thin, flexible dielectric sensor designed for cost-sensitive use with presses, molds, bulk materials or laminates. Patterned on a polyimide substrate, the electrode array is designed to allow a choice of high or low sensitivity, selected by either using the whole sensor or cutting off a portion of the array at a designated line. The Mini-Varicon sensor can be supplied without leads, or with custom-length Teflon-insulated leads attached.

6 mm Dielectric/Conductivity Sensor
Suitable for R&D, QA/QC and manufacturing applications with repetitive operations, the 6 mm dia. sensor is designed for use in presses, molds or harshenvironments where a tiny, reusable dielectric/conductivity sensor is desired. It may bemounted so the electrode is flush with a platen or mold surface, insuring no interference with the flow of material during processing. The sensor is constructed with a stainless steel electrode embedded in a high temperature polymer insulator.

Instruments
Organizations working on new thermosets or new thermoset formulations need an intimate understanding of how these materials cure before they can proceed to the next step in the research, quality control, or production process. What happens when the material is heated? When is the best time to apply pressure to squeeze out voids? How fast does the material react at 120C? 150C? 180C? Most organizations today address this need by curing a sample for an arbitrary amount of time before using inexact, error-prone manual methods, or complex thermal analytical instruments to test cure state. Maybe the sample has reached the end of cure, but maybe not. With traditional methods, it’s difficult to tell for sure. How can organizations determine whether they’re processing materials longer than necessary? Dielectric cure monitoring lets them know for sure.

Bench Top MicroPress
LTP-250A
Test labs and university researchers need reliable, robust solutions for applying heat and pressure to samples. But standard industrial presses are too powerful and costly, and can take up too much space. Organizations responsible for small parts molding applications and composite materials development and testing need press solutions optimized for their specific materials and testing environments.

Add Dsc To Your Thermal Analysis Toolkit
The analysis of polymers is one of the main applications of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) solutions. DSC provides complementary data to DEA, but many DSC solutions are prohibitively expensive. Lambient Technologies has partnered with LINSEIS Corp. to offer the industry’s first low-cost DSC/DEA package.
