Comments Regarding my Materials Work:

Over time, I have searched for and found a variety of materials and adhesives that are resistant to strong acids and, in the course of my studies, I have gradually become familiar with quite a few common and less common engineering materials.
 
Though there is quite a bit of information on the Web about any type or class of material you could wish for, it seems difficult to find omnibus overview references that categorize materials by their chemical family and then also give the more common associated industrial trade names. So ... I made up my own adhesive, sealing and structural material "genus, phylum and species" lists. 
 
Also, for many years I had a  small company specializing in the measurement of ultrasound and acoustic transducers and the making and characterization of related materials.  I have a relatively well equipped laboratory and am able to characterize the mechanical, magnetic, electric, acoustic and optical properties of diverse materials.  This capability is turning out to be quite helpful in support of finite element analysis ( FEA ) work that I do using flexPDE.
