Tag Temperature Data Loggers are well suited for monitoring the shipping and storage of heat sensitive materials. Heat catalyzing or “thermoset” materials have applications in many critical industries including aerospace, automotive, medical devices, energy and construction.
Even if the cure temperature of the material is higher than ambient, certain thermosetting polymers can still advance and start to cross-link if not stored and shipped cold, resulting in quality issues downstream. Temperature Loggers are an essential part of any quality management system and good data can prevent loss of time, labor and material, as well as potential application failures.
The Tags are economical enough to allow for many more data points where there were previously fewer. This allows for waste and scrap reduction as an insulation or refrigerant failure in one parcel would not result in a breach for the entire pallet or trailer.
Tag Temperature Data Loggers are well suited for tracking and monitoring the shipping and storage of heat sensitive chemicals, thermosetting polymers, and composites. Many of these materials are used in critical industries such as Aerospace and Defense, Automotive, Construction, and Energy. Examples include:
- Thermoset Epoxy Resins
- Other Thermoset Resins including Phenolics, Cyanate Esters, Polyesters, Polyurethanes, Bismaleimides, Polyimides, Benzoxazines
- Thermoset Composites in the form of pre-pregs
- Bulk or Chopped Molding Compounds
- Other themosetting polymers used in adhesives, sealants, coatings, films, foams, or molding applications
