Clarification request(s) and response
Kristina M (asker): 1:35pm Jan 19, 2002: foil emission - Thanks, guys.

I had already checked all my pertinent dictionaries (Stahleisen-Wörterbuch, Ernst, Kucera, Walther, DeVries, and, of course, Langenscheidt) and searched the web up an down.

My guess was indeed Folienemission, but I could not find anywhere that would confirm that.

I will ask the client for more info, and then decide. However, I will be on vacation for a week starting tomorrow, so I may not be able to find out more until after my return (and thus reward KudoZ).

Explanation:
or von Folien or even
Folien-Emissions- und Absorptionsmessungen

I refer to the Website, the service they offer is the measurement. That's why I would add -messung

I was wondering about this myself, but did not feel sure at all. However, it seems to be the best guess under the circumstances. I do agree with adding -messung (this goes for the other items on this list, as well).

Thanks.
