This study was undertaken to compare methods of calculating the transmittance of cover plate materials and the reflectance of absorber materials. Optical data were obtained for both aged and unaged test specimens using an integrating sphere spectrophotome...

A radar absorbing material, CMS-184, and assemblies bonded with two silicone based structural adhesives, DC-577 and RTV-630, were subjected to limited accelerated aging conditions and then evaluated for degradation of mechanical properties and adhesion, r...

Seven materials that are currently being considered for use as backpacking around deeply buried protective structures and silos were investigated for the effects of particular phenomena which may be present or occur in the environments in which the materi...

This report provides an assessment of the potential for aging and degradation of the resin-bonded cork and the Thermal-Insulating, Shock-Absorbing Foam materials that are components of the SAFKEG 3940A package. This package may be used for interim storage...
