Figures I and 2 give citric acid and tedium pyrophosphate solubility curves fur a commercial frit of class A rating. High alkali resistance is not considered as hw* poflaft! a measure of weather durability as high acid resistance, hut it indicates that the porcelain enamel wn not stain, streak, or Hit coka when cleaned with strong detergents - an important point for appliances and machinery parts. ReOcctAc*: Reflectance for w hitc light ranges up to #*'< with total reflectance as high as RtC . Thermal Stability: Porcelain enameled aluminum can be healed to within 3W F of the firing tempera* lure wshout damage to the coaling. Dry cold and freezing temperatures do me affect it. nor does alter* natc free/mg and thaw mg in the presence of moisture. Thermal Shock Rasbtanca: Porcelain enameled aluminum panels heated to l.ttfiO F have hem plunged mio cold water without cracking or flaking of the enamel craning. Dielectric Straogth: The porcelain enamd as writ able fra insulating and shielding purposes, has a voltage breakdown ratatg of 5<tu volts per m3 thick ness at room temperature. t ? 1.
