Molecular biology is the branch of biology that studies the molecular basis of biological activity and plays a vital role in a multitude of industrial, medical and energy applications in full development. In this article we explain what molecular biology is and how it is useful. What is molecular biology? Molecular biology is the study
Elastomers are polymers that fulfill a specific function in different industrial uses, thanks to their elastic properties. In this article we explain what elastomers are, their characteristics, the different types that exist and their applications. What are elastomers? Elastomers are highly elastic and viscous polymers formed by long molecules in the form of long carbon,
We talked to Alberto Zurro, an engineer specializing in energy technologies at Infinitia, to clarify some of the most common hoaxes and what is true about the use of two solutions that have attracted almost all the attention: ozone and ultraviolet light. Since the beginning of the pandemic, the market for COVID-19 technology has grown
A consumer panel is a great tool when developing new products and investigating the acceptance they will have both in the market and among users. In this article we explain what consumer panels are, their applications and the industrial benefits of using panelists. What is a consumer panel? A consumer panel is a representative group
Industrial Design and Product Development Engineer, with a Master’s Degree in Industrial Design Engineering from the University of Zaragoza and training in web design and Lean Start-Up methodology, Paola Pequerul works as a Design Engineer in the Strategic Design Department of Infinitia.

In a technological, competitive and global scenario, the “Double Diamond Model” works as a Design Thinking proposal that, although it helps in the design and development of products, it also serves to improve them and refocus their function or use. In this article we explain what the Double Diamond Methodology is and what it consists
The term VOC refers to a wide range of volatile chemicals that affect health and the environment. Every industry needs to be aware of them and limit their emission. In this article we explain what they are and how to control volatile organic compounds. What are VOCs? Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are substances of organic
Technological advances and innovation in materials have turned food processing into a guarantee of safety, preserving its properties, preventing the proliferation of bacteria such as listeria and achieving maximum product quality. In this article we explain what listeria is, what effects it can cause and its industrial prevention. What is listeriosis? Listeria monocytogenes is the
Plastic injection molding is not only a very useful technology for large-scale production, but also in the industrial design process of a product.

Injection molding is a manufacturing technique that uses plastic to make parts
Knowing how to use the right tools for each phase of Design Thinking will make it easier for design teams to develop innovative products and identify new business opportunities. In this article, we show you which tools designers can use at each stage of the process. What is Design Thinking? Design Thinking is defined as
Failures in industry exist, whether they are human or purely mechanical. An example would be the breakage of a material, which can result in the stoppage of the production line in a factory, leading to high economic losses. Another example: one of the worst scenarios that we can find if the incorrect operation of the
Hydrophobic substances, those that repel water, play a fundamental role in the development of new materials with improved properties. Proof of this is that in the last decade there has been a multitude of studies aimed at their research. In this article, we explain what a hydrophobic material is and its industrial applications. What are
