ABSTRACT Corrosion control covers with vapor corrosion inhibitors provide cost effective solutions to everyday shipping and storage needs for industrial and military applications. This paper focuses on a method to test and evaluate the effectiveness of corrosion control covers by using test coupons, data loggers and photography software to evaluate the rate of corrosion on test coupons.
ABSTRACT A majority of military hardware; ground vehicles, airplanes, ships and support equipment such as weapons and generators are made primarily of metal. In order to protect the metal from corrosion Chemical Agent Resistant Coatings or CARC is widely applied on military vehicles. CARC system is a key factor in elongating the life cycle of military assets. When the CARC system fails to protect the metal, the rate of corrosion on the metal increases, causing the military assets to deteriorate prematurely and create damages totaling billions of dollars. Therefore it is important to make sure the CARC system is free of defects and protected against environmental factors such as Ultraviolet (UV) light , moisture, biomass, dirt, mold and mildew as well as abrasion damage. Several solutions have been developed, tested and proven valuable for protection of CARC; including climate controlled buildings, partially open enclosures, tents and corrosion control covers. This paper focuses on the corrosion control covers and the benefits of using them to prevent corrosion and improve readiness of military assets.
