Lambient Technologies LLC

Lambient Technologies LLC, based in Boston, Massachusetts USA, develops instruments, sensors and software for monitoring the dielectric properties of curing polymers. These properties provide insight into the chemistry, formulation, reaction rate, viscosity and cure state of epoxies, polystyrenes, polyurethanes, silicones, SMC, BMC and other thermoset materials.

Dielectric cure monitoring has wide application in Research and Development, Quality Assurance/Quality Control and manufacturing. Products from Lambient Technologies are designed for flexibility and ease of use–together they form an integrated system for studying polymers and optimizing manufacturing processes.

Lambient Technologies was founded in 2008 by members of the team that developed products commercialized by Micromet Instruments; a Massachussets Institute of Technology ‘spin-off’ that pioneered the technology of dielectric cure monitoring in the 1980s. Since then, members of the Lambient Technologies LLC team have improved upon the product line at GeoCenters, Metrissa/Holometrix, and Netzsch Instruments giving them over 30 years experience in the field.
