P2 research is developing environmentally acceptable materials, processes and products that are functionally effective, as well as affordable. These technologies will provide the catalyst for significant changes in the way DoD operates and maintains systems and equipment. 31 Dec 99, through source reduction. Effective corrosion control is the number one issue facing aging DoD systems. The opportunities for dual-use technologies are excellent.
Many industries depend upon the same materials and processes required for military use.
Such technologies when functionally effective, affordable, and environmentally acceptable will be sought after by industry.
