Advanced Materials and Processes Technology Information Analysis Center |
| Description: |
The Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) sponsors thirteen Information Analysis Centers (IACs), including AMPTIAC. Each of these centers covers a focused technical area, and all are operated under the watchful eye of the office of the Secretary of Defense (ODDRE). Technology advancements generate immense amounts of archived information. Finding specific information is intensely laborious in this ocean of data – especially materials property data. IACs locate, collect, archive, sort, and analyze data, relieving researchers, designers, and engineers of this burden. IACs also leverage this technical information by using it to develop specific products and services for assisting researchers, engineers, and program managers to effectively meet their mission requirements.

The American Fiber Manufacturers Association, Inc. (AFMA) is the trade association for U.S. companies that manufacture synthetic and cellulosic fibers. The industry employs 30 thousand people and produces over 9 billion pounds of fiber in the U.S. Annual domestic sales exceed $10 billion. AFMA member companies produce more than 90% of the total U.S. output of these fibers. The membership is limited to U.S. producers that sell manufactured fiber in the open market. The Association maintains close ties to other manufactured fiber trade associations worldwide. AFMA has been in continuous operation since 1933, when it was established as the Rayon Institute with headquarters in New York. As new fibers entered the market, the Association was renamed the Man-Made Fiber Producers Association. In 1970, operations were moved to Washington as the focus grew from promotion to include advocacy on a broad range of regulatory and international trade issues. The current name for the Association was adopted in 1988. The Association's Board of Directors is made up of senior executives from each of AFMA's member companies. Most AFMA programs are managed through committees and task groups of policy and technical experts from the companies. Permanent standing committees include the Trade and Statistics Committee, and the Technical Committee. The Technical Committee has task groups dealing with: Product Stewardship, Regulatory Affairs, Technical Communications, Toxicology, Product Flammability, and International Technical Affairs. AFMA's statistics division, the Fiber Economics Bureau (FEB), collects and publishes trade and production data on the manufactured fiber industry. This FiberSource internet site is maintained by FEB. It contains a comprehensive Suppliers Guide and other basic information on the industry and its products. |
