Optimizing the performance and durability of outdoor electronics. For electronic equipment to function reliably outdoors, intact sealing of the enclosure is vitally important. Download White Paper as PDF.

Flexible cables are the backbone of lightweight and cognitive robotic systems, enabling the smooth movement of critical moving parts and joints. Read a comprehensive study in which we conducted rigorous testing using state-of-the-art TicToc tester to compare the performance of cables from different vendors.

The levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) must be reduced for green hydrogen production to meet net-zero demands. In collaboration with FEV Consulting, Gore conducted a study to evaluate the impact of Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) attributes on the LCOH in the following three use case scenarios: steel mill, offshore wind plant and a PV hydrogen production hub. The “material to system level” model compared the GORE® PEM M275.80 to a relevant Market PEM as well as against a reference Alkaline electrolysis system.

Reliably Protect Headlamps Against Condensation as well as Dirt and Water Ingress

Learn why BEV headlamps are more vulnerable to condensation than their warmer-running ICE counterparts, and why GORE® Automotive Vents are more effective than other venting methods at providing effective, life-of-vehicle condensation clearing and ingress protection so that BEV headlamps can continue to provide a clear view for drivers and any integrated sensors.

Particle generation from cables in cable chains is a complex problem for semiconductor cleanroom environments. GORE® Trackless High Flex Cables and GORE® High Flex Flat Cables from W. L. Gore & Associates can be reliably used in these environments requiring low particulation. Find out the results of the study by the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany.

Comparability in both product quality and chromatographic process characteristics between a Protein A affinity capture membrane and a packed-bed resin reference was demonstrated using a set of proposed criteria. Product quality attributes and process impurities from a purified IgG1 monoclonal antibody cell culture harvest were comparable between Protein A resin and membrane affinity stationary phases, with the membrane demonstrating order-of-magnitude higher chromatographic productivity.

This study set out to investigate the impact of PEM design on the LCOH for three distinct use cases: dedicated hydrogen production powered by nuclear, a green hydrogen production plant powered by offshore wind, and a local hydrogen production hub powered by a photovoltaic system. The GORE® PEM M275.80 was compared against both a state-of-the-art comparable market product and alkaline electrolysis, and found to be superior in all three use cases — offering the lowest LCOH thanks to its high cell efficiency.

Designers are learning that standard commercial Ethernet connectors and cables aren’t adequate in harsh aerospace conditions. W. L. Gore & Associates evaluates the top considerations designers must make when designing the right Ethernet interconnect and ensuring reliable high-speed data transmission.

When it comes to long-length microwave coaxial assemblies, their phase/loss stability and repeatability, as well as shielding effectiveness, have historically not been well documented. This is largely due to the low demand for these types of assemblies and lack of standardized testing procedures. Published by W. L. Gore & Associates, White Paper: Phase Stability, Loss Stability and Shielding Effectiveness of Long Length provides some much-needed insights into this type of equipment to help operators, engineers and manufacturers find the right extended-length solutions.

When choosing military aircraft components, lasting performance is always a top consideration. Yet while many cables perform dependably prior to installation, the challenges of routing leave them damaged and ill-prepared for the rigors of the aircraft’s flight envelope. That’s why W. L. Gore & Associates developed an installation simulator to prove their microwave assemblies delivered the same reliability before and after installation.
