ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS - F-111 WINDSHIELD COATING EROSION - DEVELOPMENT TEST,
Abstract
The purpose of this test was to determine what, if any, deterioration occurs in the rain-repellant characteristics of a silicone coating of Z<$=$= ON GLASS WHEN SUBJECTED TO A SUS TAINED AIR BLAST OF $)) KNOTS VELOCITY. Deterioration was determined by comparing still photographs made periodically during the test program looking through the glass during a simulated heavy rain. The rain-repellent characteristics of the Z4141 coating remained good after being subjected to two hundred hours of air blast at 400 knots velocity. A slight deterioration in the rain-repellent characteristics of the Z4141 coating was evident, but visibility remained good in a simulated heavy rain. (Author)
