| Résumé : |
Coatings research activities within the U.S. Department of Defense and NASA address critical issues facing the military and upcoming space exploration initiatives. Corrosion detection and control, environmentally friendly/compliant technologies, and rapid cure topcoats lie at the center of many projects within the Army, Navy, Air Force, and NASA coatings research laboratories.
Although coatings research is not what comes to mind when most people think about state-of-the-art technology being investigated by the military, it is clear that coatings do in fact play a fundamental role in determining the ultimate level of readiness and effectiveness of the armed forces. Research labs at NASA and the DoD are designing highly functional, environmentally friendly coatings that incorporate novel technologies to address critical issues facing vehicles, ships, aircraft, spacecraft, and many other types of equipment. These efforts will contribute to significant advances in the capabilities for defense, security, and space exploration. |
