This folder holds measurement data, calibrated material property datasets, and results of numerical simulations related to the pyrolysis of case black PMMA. The specific material of interest is a nominally 6 mm (0.236 inch) thick, black, cast PMMA manufactured by Evonik under the tradename: ACRYLITE cast black 9H01 GT. Note: the identification of any commercial product or trade name does not imply endorsement or recommendation by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, NIST (or any other contributing institution).
