Lauren offers a unique flouroelastomer coating technology employing dupont's viton, a flouropolymer known to be highly resistant to cw agents, simulants, and decontaminants. Lauren proposes to formulate candidate coating systems for use with elastomers of interest to the army. Several candidate flouropolymers would br used, in combination with various proportions of curatives. Elastomer samples will be prepared with various coating systems for tests at AMMRC.

Lauren Manufacturing Company will screen, develop, and evaluate polymeric materials, polymer blends, and related polymeric material coatings for protection of non-metallic components against simultaneous cw agent and decontaminant exposures. The emphasis of the effort will be on the modification and extension of Lauren's fluoroelastomer coating technology, which has been shown to have major potential application in the protection of non-metallic components against cw-related threats.
