Abstract:
A method for coating composite material sabot parts for reducing depleted uranium corrosion and sealing the surface of the composite material sabot parts, the method comprising the steps of:a) cleaning the composite material sabot parts;b) rinsing the composite material sabot parts;c) drying the composite material sabot parts;d) wiping the composite material sabot parts with a solvent;e) applying a moisture resistant insulator film on the composite material sabot parts, wherein the moisture resistant insulator film comprises a two-part epoxy material, wherein a first part consists essentially of from 18-21% by weight of Toluene, from 12-15% by weight of Methyl Isobutyl Ketone, and from 60-70% of epoxy resin, and wherein a second part consists essentially of from 40-43% Xylene by weight, from 3-5% of Ethyl Benzene by weight, from 8-11% of Butyl Alcohol by weight, from 3-5% Isopropanol by weight and from 40-44% Aliphatic Polyamonoamide by weight; andf) curing the moisture resistant insulator film.
