SensorTech Load Cells: How They Work
For its load cells, SensorTech uses a conductive nano-particle filled composite of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). To make a load cell using the partially conductive polymer composite, SensorTech places the polymer between two copper electrodes that... (download summary)

SensorTech Pressure Mapping Sensors: How They Work
For its pressure mapping sensors, SensorTech uses a conductive nano-particle filled composite of Ultra High Molecular Weigh Polyethylene (UHMWPE). The material is made into 3 different forms: Flexible Sensors (with thicknesses of 0.005 to 0.020 inches) that can be flexed or thermoformed into radical 3-D shapes... (download summary)

From Roman Scales to Nanoparticles and Smart Products -
A Discussion of Weight and Force Measurement
Weighing and force measurement technologies have been in existence since the time of the Roman Empire. This paper discusses the technologies that have been employed to support manufacturing, commercial and scientific applications that require precise measurements of these types. To solve many of the problems in weighing and force measurements, SensorTech smart polymer technology is now being used.
