In the following, the concept of micro modular process engineering is introduced together with the backbone interface developed in order to realize this modular approach. The integration of sensors and an electronic bus system is also described, and the physical characterization of the backbone is discussed within a case study of the enantioselective synthesis of organoboranes. Within the second case study, the sulfonation of toluene with gaseous sulfur tri oxide, the backbone system together with the micro structured devices used is finally assessed based on its application to chemical synthesis.

The 2500 pages of fine print may put you off. However, you do not have to read them in one go, and there is a searchable electronic version.

Analog computers may be employed in many ways in process engineering for the calculation of material and heat transfer processes [255]. In the last 10 years chiefh those methods have been further developed which can only be used by means of electronic computers [6]. These are, above all, the so-called matrix methods as evolved by Wang and Henke [256], Sargent and Murtagh [257] and Stainthorp et al. [258]. 

An understanding of the electrical, thermal, and environmental requirements of the electronic devices and circuits is important for materials and process engineers and for chemists in formulating and developing new adhesive compositions. At the same... 

The integrated circuit (IC) is an electronic device that incorporates an electrical circuit in a very tiny amount of semiconductor material. The circuit may include transistors, resistors, diodes, or capacitors. These components and their connections are etched into the semiconductor during the manufacturing process. Engineers design integrated circuits for specific purposes. We sometimes call this very small device a chip. 

The polymerization is carried out in two stages—initially the aromatic poly-imide is obtained and in the latter stage, etheric bonds are introduced. The polymer is thermoplastic. PEI represents an unique engineering polymer exhibiting a superb combination of mechanical and thermal performance, easy processibility together with a reasonable price. It also withstands UV radiation, fire and many chemicals, but may be sensitive to alkalinity. Mainly reinforced, it serves as a substitute for metals in first class electronic and engineering appliances. 

The basic chemical reactions, used to synthesize monomer and polymer resins and the chemistry involved in the use of curing agents to polymerize the resins, have been extensively studied and are well documented. This section serves as a summary only of those polymers that are primarily used in adhesives formulations for electronic applications. Among these polymers are the epoxies, silicones, polyurethanes, polyimides, acrylates, cyanate esters, and cyclo-olefins. Further technical detail for these polymers maybe acquired through literature searches in the transactions of the American Chemical Society (Polymer Group), Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE), and the Society for the Advancement of Materials and Process Engineers (SAMPE).
