Abstract The acceptance of urethan foam as a commercial product has hinged to an important extent on its permanence as a foam under all conditions of actual end use. Customer experience with commercial flexible urethan foams has confirmed the satisfactory service life of these materials. However, in the development of this industry, it was necessary to be able to predict the performance of experimental systems which later were to become fully commercial. Most often, this prediction had to be made very early, long before the materials were allowed to be put into end service. The common way to do this is by accelerated testing, wherein the time axis is condensed by stepping up the aging process well beyond any normal conditions. Considerable time and expense are saved in this kind of test; however, there is always the question that such an accelerated step-up of test conditions is not representative of actual use, and/or causes reactions in the sample which do not occur in normal use. It is important that these questionable features be reconciled before the intercomparability of accelerated and shelf-life testing is accepted.

Throughout history the development of the countries has been generated mainly by the impulse in two complementary axes: Science and Technology, and Trade. At present we are experiencing an exponential scientific and technological development and the Economy in all its fronts is driven by the intensive application of technology. According to these considerations, this research tries to expose the development of Innovation Management as a transversal mechanism to promote the different socioeconomic areas and especially those supported by engineering. To this end, use will be made of Technology Watch in order to identify the advances of the main research centres related to innovation in the world. Next, there will be an evaluation of the main models of Innovation Management and related methodologies that expose some of the existing Innovation Observatories in the world to finally make a proposal for Innovation Management applicable to the reality of Peru, so that it can be taken into consideration by stakeholders (Government, Academy, Business and Civil Society) committed to Innovation Management in the country

Abstract ATI 409HP (UNS S40900) ferritic stainless steel was introduced by ATI Allegheny Ludlum to provide improved oxidation and corrosion resistance for automotive exhaust systems in comparison to carbon steel. The alloy was designated "MF-1", indicating its end use: automotive mufflers. The good fabricability of this alloy, combined with its basic corrosion resistance and economy have significantly broadened the utility of ATI 409HP stainless steel. ATI 409HP consists of four grades: UNS S40900, S40910, S40920, and S40930. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on high temperature performance and corrosion resistance as well as forming, machining, and joining. Filing Code: SS-1135.
