Flammability. PhenoHcs have inherently low flammabiHty and relatively low smoke generation. For this reason they are widely used in mass transit, tiinnel-building, and mining. Fiber glass-reinforced phenoHc composites are capable of attaining the 1990 U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations for total heat release and peak heat release for aircraft interior facings (1,70). [Pg.302]

Before the creation of the U.S. DOT in 1967, the now defunct ICC was authorized to prescribe rules and regulations for rad, tmck, and pipeline safety. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) was responsible for air safety, and the U.S. Coast Guard for safety on the inland and coastal waterways. Upon estabHshment of DOT in 1967, the FAA and Coast Guard were transferred to the DOT, which assumed the safety functions the ICC formerly adrninistered. [Pg.260]

Hydrogen chloride is produced when PVC bums. A series of tests for the Federal Aviation Administration studied this issue. In those studies, test animals were able to survive exposures to hydrogen chloride reaching 10,000 ppm (190). More recent studies indicate less of a potential for delayed effects on lung function than expected (191). In a typical fire, hydrogen chloride levels rarely exceed 300 ppm, a fact confirmed by the Boston Fire Department and Harvard University (192). In hundreds of autopsies conducted on fire victims in the United States, not one death has been linked to the presence of PVC. [Pg.510]

PAEK materials show extremely low flammability, achieving UL V-0 classifications with a wall thickness as low as 0.8 mm without the need for fillers or other additives. It is reported that at least one PAEK (PEEKK) is able to meet the OSU Test for heat release which has been required by the Federal Aviation Administration since 1990—a requirement no longer satisfied by many of the materials used in aircraft construction. [Pg.604]

The OSU calorimeter [4] has long been used for simultaneously measuring heat and smoke release. It can also be used to measure release of combustion products. It is the basis of standard tests at both ASTM, the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM E906-1983), and FAA, the Federal Aviation Administration [6,7]. [Pg.521]

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (Department of Commerce) is concerned about aquatic life in the lagoon. The U.S. Coast Guard (Department of Transportation), as well as other agencies, may also be interested in the ultimate use of the atoll. If it is designated surplus property, the General Services Administration (GSA) may become involved. The Federal Aviation Administration (Department of Transportation) operates the runway on Johnston Island. The FWS (Department of the Interior) operates the wildlife refuge and may be the final steward of the atoll. [Pg.32]
