ノーメックス is one of 32 materials in this atlas, grouped under fire: history, structure, measured properties, process routes, uses, safety and market — not a product catalogue.
Scores compare ノーメックス with the rest of the atlas on strength, heat, fire behaviour, insulation, workability and circularity. They are editorial, not certificates.
Seven chapters follow. Fire and insulation claims name test families (Euroclass, ASTM E84, ISO 5660, KS F) rather than inventing a single safety number.
よくある質問
Is ノーメックス non-combustible?
Declared reaction class in this atlas: inherently FR textile. Assemblies still need resistance tests.
Does ノーメックス insulate?
Thermal mark 48/100 versus the atlas. Conductivity note: low (fibre); papers electrically insulating.
What is the density band?
~1.38 g/cm³
How is it made?
Origin story: DuPont 1960s (United States).
Can it be recycled?
Circularity mark 36/100 — editorial, route-specific.
Typical melting or failure heat?
does not melt; decomposes ~400 °C+
What should it be paired with?
aramid: The para-aramid strength cousin (Kevlar).
Where is it specified?
Buildings, transport, energy and consumer goods — see the uses chapter.
