Conformal coatings are used to protect electronic components from dust, chemicals, moisture and temperature extremes. There are various coating methods are available by which coating materials can be applied. These methods include brush coating, spray application coating and conformal coating dipping. Brush coating can be applied by flow coating the material onto the board and is usually suitable for low volume application, finishing and repair. Brush is coating is highly subjective in nature and requires skills operator. Spray application coating can be applied with a spray aerosol or dedicated spray booth with spray gun and is usually suitable for low and medium volume processing. Quality of spray application coating is superior as compared to other coating methods and requires skilled operator to complete the process. Conformal coating dipping is highly repeatable process. Conformal coating dipping can be the highest volume technique if the printed circuit board is designed correctly. Coating penetrates everywhere, including under devices and therefore to prevent leakage, masking must be required. Therefore, many printed circuit boards are unsuitable dipping due to design. Conformal coating materials selection is a crucial part that needs to be considered carefully and in relation to the application method. The wrong selection of conformal coating can hamper the long term reliability of circuit boards and can cause massive difficulties with both processing and costs. The conformal coating market can be bifurcated into two segments: conformal coating equipment and spares and conformal coating materials. Conformal coating equipment and spares represent the largest segment for conformal coating market in electronics.

Hematology is the branch of medicines which deals with study of blood, blood forming organs and blood diseases. Hematology includes problems related with white blood cells, red blood cells, bone marrow, lymph and platelets. Hematology also affect liquid portion of the blood known as plasma. Hematology includes various IVD technologies such as blood analysis, flow cytometry, immunodiagnostics, molecular diagnostics, hemostasis, histology, and cytology. Specialist in hematology treatment is known as haematologist. Bleeding disorders such as hemophila and blood clots, blood cancer are some of the types of blood conditions. Some of the blood associated diseases are anaemia, leukemia, Myelofibrosis, blood transfusion, malignant lymphomas and bone marrow stem cell transplantation. Hematology is diagnosed through hematology test. Hematology diagnoses anaemia, infection, haemophilia and blood clotting. Anaemia is caused due to various reasons such as iron deficiency, vitamin B-12 deficiency, chronic lead poisoning and red blood cell destruction. Anaemia is prominent in women. Hemophilia is an inherited blood disorders in which blood does not clot properly. Blood clots are clumps formed when blood hardens from liquid to solid. Blood test includes complete blood count, blood enzyme test, platelet count, international normalized ratio and lipoprotein panel. Fatigue, pale skin and shortness of breath with exertion are some of the common symptom of blood disorder. Hemostatis, hematology reagents, immunohematology and hematology rapid tests are some of the hematology diagnostics systems. Hemostatis is the largest segment of the global hematology diagnostics market.

Brain monitoring devices refer to the medical devices that measure the activities inside the brain. These devices measure the short wave's activities inside the brain and help to detect if anything abnormal in the brain. Brain monitoring devices market is growing at a significant rate due to increase in the incidence cases of neurological disorders and growing awareness for different types of treatments available in the market. Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitor refers to a medical device that is placed inside the brain and is used to measure pressure inside the brain. Intracranial pressure monitors sense the pressure inside the skull and send recordings to the recorder for better analysation. This test is performed in cases with severe head injury or if there is some brain or nervous disease. Intracranial pressure monitoring is done to remove tumor if any or to check for any blood vessel injury post surgery, which may lead to swelling if left untreated. Intracranial pressure monitors market is increasing at a significant rate due to increasing prevalence of brain injury or brain or nervous disease cases. In addition, increasing awareness and technological advancements in the field are driving the global market for intracranial pressure monitors.

Coating is referred as unique covering which is applied on the surface of any particular object to protect it from external environment. Other purposes such as decoration or other functional objectives are also fulfilled when coating is applied to any object. Coating can be applied completely or only to certain parts of the object. Paints and lacquers are majorly used as coating material which can protect the object from external environment as well as decorate the outer surface of the object. Recently smart coating has penetrated the market very heavily. Smart coatings are layer or films made of unique coating materials. These materials have pre-defined characteristics which can change its property according to the demand of external stimuli. External stimuli may include electric current, light and pressure. Smart coating can be customized according to the requirement of the customer. Smart coating has gained its important majorly due to its competitive advantages over normal coating in a wide range of applications. Smart coating can be a coating which can indicate damage on an aero engine and oil and gas platform. Also, smart coating is used to reduce the overall weight of an aircraft. Smart coating materials have the property of chemical resistant and weatherproof, hence it is used as coating medium by both industrial and domestic end-users.

Thermoformed plastic products can be produced by heating a plastic sheet to a pliable forming temperature, shaping it as desirable, and trimmed to create a usable end-product. Various types of processes available for thermoforming plastics, which include vacuum snapback, plug assist forming, and thick and thin gauge thermoforming. Different raw materials used for making thermoformed plastic products include acrylics, bio-degradable polymers, polycarbonates, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polystyrene (PS), and poly vinyl chloride (PVC). Thermoformed plastic products are usually lighter in weight and have superior strength compared with traditional packaging materials such as glass and woods. Therefore, they are most widely used in different packaging applications such as electronic, healthcare, and food packaging.

Yeasts are chemoorganotrophs in nature because they use organic compound for their energy generation and do not require sunlight for their growth and survival. Yeasts are usually unicellular (organism having single cell, some time it can occur as multi-cellular (organism having more than one cell in the body). Size of the yeast depends on the species, majorly normal yeast measures 3 to 4 µm in diameter, but sometime certain yeast can reach up to 40 µm in diameter. Yeasts reproduce asexually by the process of mitosis (process in which chromosomes in a cell nucleus separates itself to form two identical sets of chromosomes). Yeasts are natural ingredients used as one of the main food ingredients in the food processing industry. Yeast ingredients are used to provide taste and flavor to the processed food. Due to its high nutrients content yeasts are used as taste booster for different processed food such as canned food, baked food, snacks, sauces and dairy products.

Steam generator is a device which is used to create steam by boiling water. Steam generators are also referred as heat exchangers used to convert water particles into steam from heat produced in a nuclear reactor plant. Nuclear steam generator is used in high pressure water reactor having primary loop (piping system that contains coolant) and secondary loops (have separate piping system, here water is converted to steam to rotate turbines which generate electricity) attached to the water reactor. The primary loop is usually at very high temperature and pressure. Nuclear steam generator is a device which is used to transfer heat between the two loops from primary loop to the secondary loop attached to the generator. Nuclear steam generator which is attached between the primary and secondary loop generate electricity from the nuclear plant. Water flowing between the primary and secondary loops never mixes with each other. Materials which are used to manufacture turbine and piping system of a nuclear steam generator have special features to withstand heat and radiation of the reactor. Normal nuclear plant steam generator take the dimension up to 70 feet (approximately 21 meter) in length and around 800 tons in weight.

Glass is an amorphous (non-crystalline) solid material which exhibits a glass transition. Glass can also take reversible transition in amorphous materials from a hard and relatively brittle material state to a molten or plastic state. Glasses are basically brittle in state and are optically transparent in nature. Most commonly known glass type is soda-lime glass (made up of 75% silicon dioxide (SiO2), sodium oxide (Na2O), lime (CaO) and various minor additives materials). Flexible glass is an ultra-thin glass having the properties of a rigid glass material.
