Research abstract

The Phase I approach to a non-chrome, room temperature curing fuel tank coating is based on using an epoxy-polyisocyanate resin system in combination with patent pending, non-chrome corrosion inhibitors. The resin system has demonstrated the ability to meet the requirements of AMS-C-27725 when pigmented with strontium chromate. The non-chrome inhibitve pigments have demonstrated salt spray resistance equivalent to strontium chromate pigmented, epoxy polyamide coatings qualified to MIL-PRF-85582. Preliminary testing has demonstrated the feasibility of achieving corrosion resistance with the non-chrome pigmentation in the epoxy-polyisocyanate matrix. Experimental variables to be explored are inhibitive pigment type, extender pigment type, inhibitive pigment-extender pigment ratio and pigment volume concentration.
