The Evaluation of Several Aromatic Fuel Resistant Slushing Compounds

Abstract

Two particular qualities of these materials considered to be of paramount importance in their performance were studied. First, their solubility in aviation grade gasoline was determined. Experiments were designed which possessed a tendency to exaggerate actual conditions likely to be encountered in service but which served well to establish the relative value of each product. second, the protective quality of each material was evaluated when applied to aluminum alloy from which integral gasoline tanks are constructed.
