Improved Radiation Resistant Projectile Canister Liner.

Abstract

A liner for lining the interior surface of a canister which carries and supports the launching of a projectile includes a first resilient layer, a second thermally reflective layer, and a third layer having a low coefficient of friction. The first layer contacts the inner surface of the canister, the second layer is interposed between the first and third layer, and the third layer contacts the outer surface of the projectile.
