Ocean City Research Corp. assisted the U.S. Army operations command centers for technical excellence (CTX) program in evaluating the performance of waterborne epoxy CARC primer. The project developed coating performance data that was used to determine if coating systems incorporating the alternative, environmentally acceptable primer were as robust as the currently used systems.
The results of the program have impacted CARC coating application on aluminum vehicle hulls such as the M113 and the Bradley Fighting Vehicle.
