Elastomers are polymers that possess elasticity and viscosity along with weak intermolecular forces. The elastic property helps elastomers retain their original shape once the deforming force is removed. Monomers of elastomers contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and silicon. Together, these monomers form elastomeric polymers. Elastomers possess thermosetting as well as thermoplastic properties. Thermoplastic elastomers belong to the category of polymers that melt at a specific temperature. Thermosetting elastomers do not melt at high temperatures. Thermosetting elastomers are commonly known as high temperature elastomers. High temperature elastomers do not melt; these convert into gaseous state at high temperatures. High temperature elastomers are generally insoluble in common solvents such as water. The chemical inactiveness of high temperature elastomers makes them chemical resistant and anti-corrosive. High temperature elastomers are widely used in the automobile and transporta...

A recent research report published by Transparency Market Research projects the  global wax market  to expand at a CAGR of 2.6% during the period between 2014 and 2020.

Heat transfer is a branch of thermal engineering that deals with the use, exchange, generation, and conversion of thermal energy and heat, especially for physical systems. Heat transfer is classified into thermal convection, thermal conduction, thermal radiation, and energy transfer as a result of phase change.  Heat transfer fluid is a substance that avoids overheating of any device or is used for storing thermal energy. In order to perform this operation, the heat transfer fluid needs to be circulated through its mechanical parts thereby transferring the heat from one device to another. These heat transfer fluids have a wide range of applications in chemical industries, automotives, petroleum processing, solar power plants, and in manufacturing processes. The heat transfer fluids market is classified based on the product type into mineral oils based products, PAG and glycol based products, and silicone and aromatics based products. Based on applications they are segment...
