Ernie Litynski, President, RBP Chemical Technology
MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin — RBP Chemical Technology and Lighteum have entered into a collaborative partnership focused on Nitinol device development and processing. Recognizing that each company brings best-in-class technical capabilities in their areas of expertise, coupled with a spirit of openness and cooperation, it became quite apparent that the two companies should formalize their working relationship.
A few years ago, a partner came to us with a difficult assignment. They were producing a mix of a volatile acid, something like 99% sulfuric acid with an alcohol solvent, in house. They needed to reduce the cost of producing and storing this chemical while also lowering risks to their employees.
We get asked this question all the time: How does it work if I really want to outsource some of my chemical manufacturing to a toll blender? Toll Blending is a common service for chemical companies (e.g.: “toll blender”) to manufacture/fulfill chemistry blending for a partner to reduce the partner’s production risks or capital investments. RBP Chemical Technology works with partners around the globe to provide this service, as well as, to optimize their chemical processes.
SAN DIEGO, California — RBP Chemical Technology, known for consistently delivering high-quality products and services, based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin announced their exclusive partnership today with Schlötter GmbH based in Geislingen, Germany.
Toll Blending is a common service for chemical companies (e.g.: “toll blender”) to manufacture/fulfill chemistry blending for a partner in order to reduce the partner’s production risks or capital investments. RBP Chemical Technology works with partners around the globe to provide this service, as well as, to optimize their chemical processes. Here are six reasons why customers turn to RBP for their toll blending needs.
When companies have specific chemical needs but lack the resources to address these needs in house, outsourced chemical blending – or Toll Blending – is a valuable solution.
RBP Chemical Technology, Inc. is adding to its leadership team with the appointment of Dan Carey as Executive Vice President.
We take pride in is our core competency, and that’s being experts in surface chemistry. We understand the function of cause and effect of chemistry with all mediums, from printing press room, all the way to medical chemistry. When you use a press room, as an example, you’re touching many different surfaces. You’re touching everything from organic items like paper to aluminum plates and carbons. You’re also touching hydrocarbon substrates like plastics, all the way to using other chemistries, like ink. When it comes to chemistry handling, and we want you to do it safely. Here are our six solutions for safer chemistry handling.
We firmly believe that chemistry provides the perfect solutions to polish, passivate, deoxidize and coat medical implant devices. And while these chemicals are made to help, they can also do a lot a harm if misused or mistreated.
Hazardous communications are the most important part of chemistry in any industry, but it’s especially important in the Medical Implant Device industry.
Southern Lithoplate’s (SLP) Strategic Alliance, formed in 2006, continues to grow and evolve with new partners that enhance the organization’s advantages for US printers seeking affordable, quality consumables and services in a single-call/single source format. RBP Chemical Technology Inc., is the newest partner to join the trendsetting Alliance, SLP announced this week
One of the main causes of plating defects is copper peeling. Copper peeling is really a disconcerting situation. If it happens, you’ve already put a lot of money, time, and effort to fabricate the circuit board up to this point as you come out of your electrolytic, or electroless copper, plating process. This becomes disconcerting because you may find out that the plated copper peels from either the laminate surface or from the electrical surface. Of course at that point, it’s very difficult to rework the board, and most likely that board at this time will be most likely scrapped.
Are all OSPs the same? And how does an OSP actually protect the copper base?
RBP Chemical Technology is pleased to announce the release of another innovation in its proprietary portfolio of engineered processes for the cleaning, deoxidation and polishing of titanium and titanium alloys. The ElectroPolish 2152 is a non-aqueous, sub-room temperature electropolishing solution designed to yield a superior surface finish and has been shown to provide a uniformly polished surface with minimal metal removal. Use of the Electropolish 2152 enhances the corrosion resistance and thus the biocompatibility of the embedded medical device.
Circutek CC-720™ is an acidic cleaner/conditioner for use in the electroless copper metallization process in the PCB industry. It is formulated to remove fingerprints, light soil and other contaminants from copper foil. It also conditions non-metallic surfaces including glass fiber fabric and multiple resin systems used in the construction of high-reliability rigid, rigid-flex and flexible printed circuit boards. The Circutek CC-720 is formulated to affect maximum adsorption of palladium tin catalyst to insure uniform deposition of the subsequent electroless copper deposit.
RBP is proud to announce the release of MAGNUM N-499, an additional innovation to their PTH process product offering for printed circuit boards. MAGNUM N-499 is a specially designed neutralizer based on hydrogen peroxide that removes residues of manganese dioxide from drilled holes after permanganate desmear in preparation for metallization of multilayer circuit boards. MAGNUM N-499 is effective on a variety of resin materials including high performance epoxy resins and polyimide. It is easily replenished and does not require circuit boards to be dried prior to processing. MAGNUM N-499 should be used in conjunction with MAGNUM K-401 OXIDIZER or MAGNUM N-501 OXIDIZER for optimal performance in the desmear sequence.
RBP’s VP of Technology and Business Development, Mike Carano, recently sat down with John Johnson of Averatek and Nolan Johnson of I-Connect007 to discuss RBP’s new distribution agreement with Averatek. RBP recently announced that we would be supplying the supporting chemicals for Averatek’s A-SAP™ plating process. Click on the video below to hear the full discussion on this new distribution agreement.
Averatek Corporation is proud to announce that RBP Chemical Technology will become a new distribution partner. RBP will supply supporting chemistries that are needed by licensees of Averatek’s A-SAP™ process. The core LMI™ (Liquid Metal Ink) chemistry will continue to be supplied directly by Averatek. A-SAP™ is an advanced PCB manufacturing technology that enables feature sizes of 25 microns and below, effectively providing PCB designers with new opportunities to address the challenges of next generation electronics.
As manufacturers of isopropanol & ethanol reallocate supply to support the medical, healthcare, and disinfectant industries, RBP Chemical Technology would like to offer another solution. Our DT-600 is an All-Purpose concentrate cleaner that can be used on a variety of surface types. This versatile and dilutable cleaner can tackle different cleaning jobs, meaning you only have to carry one product to conduct multiple cleaning processes. This product is environmentally friendly, and low odor with zero VOC’s.
ONYX™ is a Direct Metallization System for High Reliability and Complex Printed Circuit Boards
