Research abstract
The proposed Phase I research will demonstrate the feasibility in developing a low cost, two component, self-leveling, fire retardant, high performance polysulfide modified epoxy airfield joint sealant. Single component silicone is the preferred used joint sealant, that has poor resistance to continuous spillage of jet fuels, lubricating oils, and hydraulic fluids. Polysulfides are highly resistant to various jet fuels and solvents. When modified and cured with an epoxy resin overall physical and mechanical properties are enhanced such as flexibility, weatherability, and chemical resistance.
