In the coatings industry, foam is more than a visual nuisance—it’s a performance disruptor. Whether during production, packaging, or application, uncontrolled foam can lead to surface defects such as craters, pinholes, and fish eyes. These issues not only compromise the aesthetic and functional properties of coatings but can also result in costly rework and reduced customer satisfaction.

Defoamers play a critical role in managing this challenge. By destabilizing and eliminating foam bubbles, these additives improve film formation, enhance leveling, and support consistent application performance. Selecting the right defoamer is essential, especially in modern water-based and high-solids systems, where formulation compatibility, recoatability, and long-term effectiveness are key considerations.

Foam formation is a persistent issue in pulp and paper manufacturing, particularly during processes such as pulping, bleaching, washing, and paper machine operation. Excessive foam not only hampers operational efficiency but can also lead to fiber loss, reduced drainage, and poor sheet formation. This makes defoamers an essential additive to ensure stable production and consistent product quality.

Effective defoaming agents work by rapidly collapsing surface foam and preventing entrained air from reforming foam bubbles. In the context of the paper industry, this translates into improved drainage, enhanced dewatering performance, and fewer disruptions in paper machine operations. The ideal defoamer must strike a balance between high efficiency and compatibility with process water chemistry, while minimizing deposits or interference with sizing and retention systems.

Ever wondered how bulletproof vests actually work? They’re not magic armor, but incredible feats of material science designed to save lives. Let CHINA XINXING GUANGZHOU IMPORT AND EXPORT CO.,LTD. explore it with you. 

Here’s the core idea: These vests absorb and disperse the energy from a bullet, stopping it from penetrating the body. They use layers of tightly woven, incredibly strong synthetic fibers like Kevlar® or Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE). When a bullet hits, the fibers catch it, stretch, and spread its force across a wide area, significantly reducing impact.

Key things to know:

1. Levels Matter: Vests are rated (like NIJ standards II, IIIA, III, IV) based on the threats they stop – from handguns to high-powered rifles. Higher levels often require rigid ceramic or steel plates added to soft armor.

2. Not Invincible: "Bulletproof" is a misnomer; "bullet-resistant" is more accurate. No vest stops all threats indefinitely, and coverage is limited to the protected area.

3. Weight & Wear: Protection comes with weight. Modern materials strive for lighter designs, but comfort varies. Proper fit is crucial for effectiveness.

4. Lifespan: Vests degrade. Sunlight, moisture, and wear reduce fiber strength. Most have a 5-year service life – check manufacturer guidelines!

           

 

Bulletproof vests are vital safety tools for law enforcement, military, and security personnel. While not infallible, they dramatically increase survival chances, turning potential tragedies into stories of resilience. Understanding their capabilities and limitations is key!

With the advancement and development of technology. In modern warfare, various countries have introduced high-tech equipment as weapons to assist soldiers.

Night vision goggles are a very useful piece of equipment. Can help soldiers adapt to night combat.Night vision devices usually distinguish between white phosphorus tubes and green phosphorus tubes. And how do we usually choose?

Today we- China Xinxing Guangzhou Imp&Exp Co., Ltd.  will introduce the how to choose between white phosphorus tube and green phosphorus tube

 

1. Which part of the night vision device is the white phosphorus tube or the green phosphorus tube?

The low light night vision device uses an image intensifier to amplify low light, and photons from dim light sources enter the objective lens (left side) and collide with the photocathode (gray plate). The photocathode (negative bias) releases electrons, which are accelerated to a higher voltage microchannel plate (red). Each electron will cause multiple electrons to be released from the microchannel plate. Electrons are attracted to a higher voltage fluorescent screen (green). The electrons that collide with the fluorescent screen generate photons that can be seen through the eyepiece.

Major is the green plate. The white or green phosphorus tube depends on whether the board is green or white.

2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?

WHITE phosphorus tube

Advantage:

More natural images:

The white phosphorus tube presents black and white or gray white tones, which are closer to the visual experience under natural light and reduce the fatigue of the human eye to a single color.

Better contrast:

In complex scenes such as jungles and urban environments, grayscale differences make it easier to distinguish between targets and backgrounds.

Long term use comfort:

Suitable for long-term tasks (such as night patrols), green light has less stimulation on the pupils and reduces eye fatigue.

Compatible with digital processing:

Black and white images are more easily combined with digital enhancement techniques such as thermal imaging fusion.

Disadvantages:

User habits:

Traditional green phosphorus pipes are more popular, and some users need to adapt to the color tone of white phosphorus.

High cost:

Early white phosphorus tube technology had a high threshold and may have been more expensive (now the gap has narrowed).

Partial scene adaptability:

Under extremely low light conditions, the brightness perception of green phosphorus tubes may have a slight advantage (human eyes are more sensitive to green).

 

GREEN phosphorus tube

Advantage:

Human eye sensitivity:

The human eye is most sensitive to the green spectrum (505-555nm), which may appear brighter in extremely weak light.

Traditional Popularity:

Long term use in military/civilian fields, users are familiar with green imaging style.

Cost advantage:

Mature technology with low early production costs.

Disadvantages:

Visual fatigue:

Long term staring at green images can easily lead to eye fatigue, and the pupils may decrease their night vision adaptability due to continuous constriction.

Contrast limitation:

A single green tone may obscure details and result in weaker target recognition capabilities in complex scenes.

Outdated trend:

Modern armies (such as the US military) are gradually shifting towards white phosphorus tubes (such as PVS-31A) due to their superior overall performance.

 

The above is the difference between white phosphorus pipes and green phosphorus pipes. If you are interested in night vision devices. Please contact us promptly:mail@cxxgz.com. We have many product options for night vision devices.

In the coatings industry, foam is more than just an aesthetic issue—it can compromise film integrity, reduce gloss, and negatively impact both production and application. From water-based paints to high-performance industrial coatings, managing foam is essential to ensure product quality and process efficiency. This is where defoamers play a vital role, breaking down surface bubbles and preventing re-foaming during formulation and application stages.

Foam typically forms during mixing, pumping, or spraying, and if not effectively controlled, it leads to defects such as craters, pinholes, and reduced surface smoothness. Defoamers are added to coatings to suppress foam generation and ensure uniformity across the film. The challenge, however, lies in selecting a defoamer that is not only effective but also compatible with the specific resin system and environmentally compliant.

Rickman defoamers are specifically designed to meet these challenges. With a broad portfolio covering silicone-based, mineral oil-based, and polymer-based defoamers, Rickman offers tailor-made solutions for various coating systems—including emulsion paints, epoxy coatings, and UV-curable formulations. Each product is engineered to provide long-term foam suppression without compromising color acceptance, leveling, or gloss.

Beyond product quality, Rickman is trusted for its commitment to service and support. The company’s technical team works closely with formulators to fine-tune performance and solve unique application problems. With reliable global logistics, flexible supply volumes, and continuous R&D investment, Rickman ensures customers not only receive the right product but also the right partnership.

What is a Bill of Lading? The Complete Guide for Modern Shippers

Have you ever wondered how $19 trillion worth of goods move safely across global supply chains annually? At the heart of this complex machinery lies a single document: the bill of lading (BOL). This unassuming piece of paper (or increasingly, digital record) is so vital that experts estimate digitizing it could unlock $15.5 billion in direct benefits for the shipping ecosystem—proof that understanding what a BOL is directly impacts your bottom line.

Why the Bill of Lading Isn’t Just “Paperwork”

A bill of lading is a legally binding contract between a shipper and carrier that serves three irreplaceable functions:

1. Receipt of goods: Proof your cargo was received by the airline in a specified condition
2. Contract of carriage: Evidence of agreed terms between all parties
3. Document of title: Legal ownership transfer instrument for the goods

Without it, global trade would stall. Consider this: in 2022 alone, 45 million bills of lading were issued—yet only 2.1% were electronic. That’s like using carrier pigeons in the age of email!

The 3 Critical Functions of a Bill of Lading Explained

1. The Receipt Function: Your Proof of Shipment

When a carrier signs a BOL, they confirm:

• Goods were received in the stated quantity
• The packaging showed no visible damage
• Cargo matched the described type and weight

This receipt becomes crucial if disputes arise later. For example, if perishables arrive spoiled, a clean bill of lading (without damage notations) helps prove where responsibility lies. Conversely, a claused bill of lading records defects upfront—like “crate leaking” or “container dented”—shifting liability.

Pro Tip: Always inspect goods before signing. Once you accept a clean Bill of Lading (BOL), claiming damage becomes more challenging.

2. The Contract Function: Your Legal Safety Net

Though not the actual contract (which forms when booking space), the BOL evidences agreed terms, including:

• Shipping routes and timelines
• Liability Limitations
• Freight charges and payment terms

Under maritime laws like the Hague-Visby Rules, carriers must issue accurate bills of lading. Misstating cargo details (e.g., calling explosives “machine parts”) voids liability protections.

3. The Title Function: Your Ownership Control

This is where BOLs become powerful financial tools. As a document of title, whoever holds the original controls the goods. This enables:

• Trade financing: Banks accept endorsed order bills of lading as collateral for loans
• In-transit sales: Goods can be sold while at sea by transferring the BOL
• Secure payment: Buyers only receive cargo after paying and obtaining the BOL

Example: An exporter shipping smartphones to Brazil can use an order bill of lading made “to order of Bank XYZ.” The bank releases it to the importer only after payment clears.

Bill of Lading Types: Choosing the Right One

Selecting the wrong type risks delays, disputes, or fraud. Here’s when to use each:

Real-World Applications:

• Direct, paid shipments: A straight bill of lading ensures cargo goes only to “XYZ Retail Inc.” in Los Angeles—no one else can claim it.
• Multimodal transport: Shipping mining equipment from Germany to Chile via rail and sea. A thorough bill of lading simplifies logistics under one contract.
• High-risk cargo: Electronics in sealed containers ship with “STC” (Said to Contain) notation. This protects carriers if contents differ from descriptions.

What Goes Into a Bill of Lading?

Accuracy saves costs and headaches. Mandatory fields include:

• Parties: Shipper, consignee, notify party details.
• Cargo specifics: Weight, dimensions, NMFC freight class
• Route: Port of loading, port of discharge
• Declarations: Hazardous materials, special handling needs

Common Pitfall: Misclassifying freight (e.g., labeling furniture as “metal products”) inflates costs.

The Ebola Revolution: Why Paper is Fading

While 97.9% of BOLs were paper-based in 2022, electronic bills of lading (eBOLs) are surging due to:

• Speed: Reduce document processing from days to minutes
• Security: Digital trails prevent forgery
• Sustainability: Save 28,000+ trees annually if fully adopted

Platforms like Maersk’s eBL now enable instant transfer of titles globally. Yet challenges remain—not all countries recognize digital BOLs and system breaches could disrupt shipments.

5 Bill of Lading Best Practices

1. Triple-check details: A misspelled consignee name can strand cargo.
2. Use “clean” BOLs cautiously: Only accept if goods were truly undamaged at pickup.
3. Retain copies: Store BOLs for 5+ years for audits or claims.
4. Train your team: Ensure staff understands what is BOL fraud (e.g., fake endorsements).
5. Match transport modes:
   • Use inland BOLs for domestic rail/road legs via our road transport services
   • Switch to ocean BOLs for sea transit
   • Opt for multimodal BOLs for combined routes like our truck-air solutions

The Silent Guardian of Global Trade

From Roman merchants to AI-driven supply chains, the bill of lading has endured because it solves a universal need: trust. It assures shippers their cargo is protected, carriers their terms are enforced, and buyers their goods will arrive as paid for.

At Dear Railway Transport, we demystify documents like these so you can shop smarter. Whether you’re moving electronics via air-truck hybrids or heavy machinery via dedicated rail, mastering what is a BOL fundamentals turns complexity into a competitive advantage.

End-to-End: How Retail Logistics Operates

The retail logistics to move products from manufacturers and ports to stores and customers. In 2022, the global retail logistics market was valued at about $246.85 billion, and it is forecast to grow rapidly as international trade and e-commerce expand. For example, worldwide goods trade reached $25.3 trillion in 2022, driven by rising consumer demand. At the same time, global e-commerce sales (around $18.98 trillion in 2022) are expected to more than double by 2030, underscoring the critical role of logistics in supporting retail trade. From China to Europe and beyond, retailers must move more goods faster and more reliably than ever. For all these reasons, modern retail logistics solutions must be flexible, resilient and data-driven. Freight forwarding for retail businesses has become highly specialized – providers now bundle small orders into larger shipments, manage customs paperwork, and often offer extra services like returns handling or inventory tracking to meet tight retail schedules.

A supply chain for retail starts when a product is manufactured and ends when that product reaches a consumer’s hands (whether through a store or a home delivery). Key steps include factory packaging, inland trucking to a seaport or rail terminal, international transit, customs clearance, and distribution through local warehouses or stores. Retailers also manage inventory and demand. For example, a clothing retailer must predict seasonal demand so stores don’t run out of stock. Efficient retail logistics solutions often include just-in-time delivery from distribution centers to stores, centralized inventory systems, and fast order fulfillment.

Freight forwarders and 3PL (third-party logistics) companies are essential in this chain. They act as one-stop coordinators. A freight forwarder might organize the entire journey: collecting goods from multiple factories, consolidating them into containers, booking transport, handling customs clearance, and arranging final delivery. As one logistics guide notes, freight forwarders “arrange for the transportation of shipments” under their own bills of lading and “actually store physical freight for customers”. In practice, this means a forwarder can take responsibility for warehousing, insurance, and documents so the retailer can focus on sales. In short, effective retail logistics solutions and freight forwarding for retail businesses manage the complexity behind the scenes so goods arrive on time.

• Manufacturing to Fulfillment: Factories package and palletize products. Shipment planning may combine items from different factories.

• Carrier Booking: Freight forwarders book carriers (ship, plane, train, truck) and arrange loading into containers or pallets.

• Customs Clearance: Documents are prepared and goods pass through customs at borders or ports (e.g. via TIR or railway corridors).

• Delivery and Distribution: Once in the destination country, freight may unload at a warehouse for sorting, then trucks deliver goods to regional DCs or retail outlets.

Modes of Transport in Retail Logistics

Freight trains loaded with containers demonstrate how rail transport can move large volumes of goods across continents. In retail logistics, different modes of transport serve different needs. Air freight is very fast but expensive, making it suitable for urgent or high-value retail items (like electronics or perishables). Ocean shipping is slow (often 30–45 days from East Asia to Europe) but very low-cost, so retailers use it for bulky, non-perishable goods such as garments or furniture. Rail freight provides a middle ground: China–Europe block trains can carry dozens of containers in about 2–3 weeks at moderate cost. Road transport (trucks), especially under the TIR customs system, offers door-to-door flexibility within regions.

Navigating Dangerous Goods Transport: A Guide to Classes 9

Dangerous goods are substances or articles posing risks to health, safety, property, or the environment during transit. Globally standardized under the UN system, they’re classified into 9 classes based on their primary hazards. With over 11 million shipments annually, understanding these categories and compliance protocols is crucial for the safe shipping of dangerous goods.

The 9 Classes of Dangerous Goods: What You Need to Know

Class 1: Explosives
Substances reacting violently (e.g., dynamite). Require anti-shock packaging and isolation from heat sources.

Class 2: Gases
Compressed gases (e.g., propane, aerosol cans). Cylinders must be upright and valve-protected.

Class 3: Flammable Liquids
Liquids with flashpoints ≤61°C (e.g., gasoline, acetone). Need vapor-tight containers.

Class 4: Flammable Solids
Includes spontaneously combustible (e.g., phosphorus) or water-reactive materials (e.g., sodium). Require dry, ventilated spaces.

Class 5: Oxidizers & Organic Peroxides
Oxidizing agents (e.g., hydrogen peroxide) that intensify fires. Isolate from combustibles.

Class 6: Toxic & Infectious Substances
Poisons (e.g., pesticides) and biohazards (e.g., medical waste). Mandate sealed, leak-proof packaging.

Class 7: Radioactive Material
Items emitting ionizing radiation (e.g., uranium). Shielded containers and strict quantity limits apply.

Class 8: Corrosives
Acids/bases causing tissue or metal damage (e.g., sulfuric acid). Glass and plastic containers require impact cushioning.

Class 9: Miscellaneous Dangerous Goods
Hazardous materials are not covered above. Includes lithium batteries, dry ice, asbestos, and environmentally hazardous substances.
