Multisorb to Present In-Booth Symposium at Pack Expo 2012


Presentation to Discuss Moisture in Electronics and the Role of Sorbent Technology

Buffalo, New York - Multisorb Technologies, has announced it will be exhibiting at Pack Expo International 2012, October 28-31, 2012 in Chicago, Illinois. Multisorb will be using North America's largest packaging and processing show to promote the value of sorbent use for electronic devices and to offer optimized solutions for common, and not so common, challenges that electronics manufacturers face.

Multisorb will be presenting an in-booth symposium, "Moisture in Electronics" on October 29, 2012 at 2:00pm. Moisture can wreak havoc with electronic products, creating a host of problems, such as optical lens fog, insulation break down, power semiconductor failure, and corrosion of contacts and relays. The presentation will discuss the causes of moisture inside sealed housings and the role of sorbent technology to prevent product failure and reduced service life.

Multisorb will also be showcasing its line of Drop-In, Fit-In, and Built-In sorbent solutions for the electronics industry.

Drop-In solutions are available as sachets or canisters and are placed directly into product packaging to control moisture, oxygen, or hydrocarbons.

If sorbent protection of the product is required during use, a Fit-In or Built-In solution is required. Over time, moisture or volatiles can corrode or interfere with the function of internal components. As a Fit-In solution, Multiform CSF® compressed sorbents' size and shape are customized to fit into an available space in the hermetically sealed device housing.

For the most customized solution, Multisorb's proprietary reinforced, injection moldable desiccant loaded polymer, PolySorb®, is integrated into an existing thermoplastic component of the device. This solution brings multifunctional capabilities to an existing part.

Multisorb's electronics professionals can guide you to find the right solution for your product. Customizable solutions are available for your unique challenges. Stop by Booth 7918 to see the presentation or to speak with Multisorb's knowledgeable staff about the sorbent solution best suited to your needs.
