A general web search didn't turn up any results and I do not have any plastics literature - so I wanted to run this up the flag pole with you guys/gals. Does Halar/ECTFE have an MEC and if so, what is it?

Also, what are acceptable methods for determining source terms that would feed into calculations determining plastic concentration? The process that I am interested in is electrostatic coating using Halar. The room has a defined ventilation rate, and I need to determine wheter or not the flow rate is acceptable. However, I am missing two key inputs: MEC and plastics concentration. Would you perhaps use a flow rate of plastics from the electrostatic coater and assume none "sticks" to the object being coated?

Thank you, in advance, for any help you offer.
