Figure 1 - Illustration of relationship between the burn
           threshold and the contact period when a hot
           surface is touched by the skin
Figure 2 - Burn threshold spread when the skin is in contact
           with a hot smooth surface made of bare (uncoated)
           metal
Figure 3a - Rise of the burn threshold spread from Figure 2
            for metals which are coated by lac of a thickness
            of 50 mu m, 100 mu m and 150 mu m
Figure 3b - Rise of the burn threshold spread from Figure 2
            for metals which are coated by Rilsan 2)
            (thickness 400 mu m), powder (60 mu m and 90 mu m)
            and porcelain enamel (160 mu m)
Figure 4 - Burn threshold spread when the skin is in contact
           with a hot smooth surface made of ceramics, glass
           and some stone materials
Figure 5 - Burn threshold spread when the skin is in contact
           with a hot smooth surface made of plastics
