Hi folks: I thought it might be informative for those of you dealing with outgassing issues (called thermal vacuum stability, TVS at NASA) for government programs to know of a data base maintained by NASA at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, AL. It is called MAPTIS which stands for Materials And Processes Technical Information System. It contains a wealth of information on TVS as well as flammability, toxicity, odor, atomic oxygen resistance, ultraviolet resistance and much more. Here are the contacts: MAPTIS USER PROBLEMS CONTACTS: DATA - Kathy Baker 256-961-0357 OTHER - Rene' Hitson 256-544-6972 Linda Huber 256-544-4889 Rick Joiner 256-544-5537 Pat Hogue Materials and Processes Engineering Honeywell Satellite Systems Operation Glendale, AZ 85308 (602) 561-3748 ################################################################ TechNet E-Mail Forum provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8c ################################################################ To subscribe/unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the body: To subscribe: SUBSCRIBE TechNet <your full name> To unsubscribe: SIGNOFF TechNet ################################################################ Please visit IPC's web site (http://www.ipc.org) "On-Line Services" section for additional information.
