Aircraft Carrier Exposure Tests of Cast Magnesium Alloys

Abstract

The numbering of technical project reports issued by the Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Division, Warminster is arranged for specific Identification purposes. Each number consists of the Center acronym, the calendar year in which the number was assigned, the sequence number of the report within the specific calendar year, and the official 2-digit correspondence code of the Functional Department responsible for the report. For example: Report No. NAWCADWAR-92001-60 indicates the first Center report for the year 1992 Lnd prepared by the Air Vehicle and Crew Systems Technology Department. The numerical codes are as follows:

The shipboard exposure testing of aircraft materials

“…There is evidence of severe attack along the scribe marks of the unsealed DF 1471-3. 6 The same alloy with epoxy resin seal and Glyptal was not corroded, except in the scribe marks. 6 The various coatings provided relatively good corrosion protection as the systems in Figure 2a and Table III demonstrate.…”
