Research abstract
Advancements in thermal/infrared imaging can potentially permit improved detection of assets critical to the U.S. Warfighter, potentially affecting mission outcome. In other situations, improved heat trapping/thermal management may also be beneficial, especially in cold environments. To meet thermal management needs like these, Luna Labs proposes to develop a high-performing but more occupational health (ESOH)-friendly coating for thermal and infrared control. The coating will consist of unique resin chemistry and appropriate fillers for desired level of thermal management. The coating will have low ESOH risk.
