MATERIAL: SEALANT TOP COAT-DETERMINE NEED FOR

Abstract

Tests were conducted to determine if B-58 fuel tank sealants possess adequate fuel resistance without the use of MIL-S-4383(B) top coat sealant (EC - ++>). This top coat sealant appear to be detrimental to the sealants when they are exposed to heat following fuel immersion. The elongation of all materials top coated with EC-776 is much less than those without a top coat. Weight loss test results indicated that EC-776 affords some protection against fuel extraction of the sealants.
