Research abstract
Chemical processes will be developed to examine the feasibility of the production of fluoroalkoxyphosphazene elastomers for use in hydraulic seal applications. The program is a collaboration between Phosphazene Custom Synthesis (PCS) and The PennsylvaniaState University to establish the chemistry and engineering needed to optimize the properties and scale-up the preparation of these elastomers. The elastomers are expected to be superior to other materials for hydraulic applications. The work shouldinitiate the commercial develpment of these elastomers in hydraulic, aerospace, and other applications.
