Abstract
This report is to document the
60-month performance of VOC-compliant coating systems for carbon steel
exposed to the STS launch environment. This evaluation program was
initiated in 1990 to identify corrosion resistnat coating materials
for use at KSC that would comply with proposed Clean Air legislation.
KSC-STD-C-0001 requires an evaluation at the 60-month exposure period
for material evaluation for final approval of products. This report
provides information for the revision of approved coating systems
listed in KSC-STD-C-0001.
