What is chemical resistance?

Color Center - Color Handbook - FAQ
Painted surfaces are likely at some time to come in contact with chemicals, which react with and thus adversely affect the characteristics of the painted product or its properties in use. The most common form of chemical attack is from acidic or alkaline media. E.g. certain resin systems in the paint industry are cured by a catalytic process set of by acidic conditions. The acidic reagents present must not affect pigments used in these systems.

How does one measure the chemical resistance properties of the material?

Wilder Construction Company
Early in our evaluation of MatCon® performance, we consulted Dr. Henry Haxo, then President of Matrecon, Inc. about testing for chemical resistance. Using his previous experience in developing performance standards for geomembranes, we devised a testing program to evaluate the resistance of MatCon® to attack by leachate from municipal solid waste.

How do I read the chemical chart?

MAPA
There are two phenomenons which characterize a glove's resistance to contact with a given chemical: Degradation : deterioration of the glove, manifested by modification of physical properties (eg. softening, hardening). Permeation: a phenomenon which is characteristic of solvents which, depending on the type, may gradually penetrate the glove, sometimes with no visible signs of degradation. In order to help you choose the most appropriate gloves, Mapa offers a Chemical Resistance Index.

How do I determine the fire rating or resistance of hollowcore plank? Should I specify a UL Rating?

FAQ : Mid-Atlantic Precast Association (MAPA)
Like all precast, prestressed concrete products, hollowcore slabs have excellent fire resistance. Depending on thickness and strand cover, ratings up to a 4-hour endurance can be achieved. A fire rating is dependent on equivalent thickness for heat transmission, cover over the prestressing strand for strength in a high temperature condition and end restraint. Underwriters Laboratory (UL) publishes fire ratings for various assemblies.

I noticed that you gave a review a five rating in one chart and a two rating in another. Why?

Product Reviews and Reports by Consumer Search - ConsumerSea...
Our ratings of reviews are specific to product category, time and purpose. A review of all the passenger cars on the market may get a higher rating in our mid-priced sedans report than it gets in our economy cars report if the review covers mid-priced sedans more thoroughly. In other words, our ratings are not an indication of the article's credibility apart from the specific category on which we're reporting.

What is the fire resistance rating of a brick wall assembly?

The Brick Industry Association Frequently Asked Questions
Since the primary ingredient in brick is clay which is fired to around 2000 F, it is a non-combustible material. As such, it is an excellent cladding choice to resist or confine fires. A brick wall's fire resistance rating can be calculated. This is done by extrapolating from known fire resistance periods for a given thickness of wall. Refer to Technical Notes 16B for further information on how to calculate fire resistance ratings for specific brick walls.

How should I interpret NHTSA's new combined rollover resistance rating?

accident reconstruction traffic investigation newsletter
The new combined rollover resistance rating system predicts a vehicle's chance of rollover in single-vehicle crashes by: (1) an at-rest laboratory measurement known as the Static Stability Factor (SSF) which determines how top-heavy a vehicle is, and (2) the results of a dynamic maneuvering test that determines how susceptible the vehicle is to an on-road un-tripped rollover.

Does a vehicle with a higher Rollover Resistance Rating mean it is immune from rollovers?

SUV Rollover FAQ - Government Safety Regulations
No, even a five-star vehicle has up to a 10 percent risk of rolling over in a single vehicle crash. In fact, because of the aggressive way in which the vehicle is driven and/or the age and skill of the driver, certain five-star vehicles such as sports cars, may have a higher number of rollovers per hundred registered vehicles than certain three-star vehicles, such as mini vans, due to the fact that they are in more single vehicle crashes.
