The formation of liquid oxygen on the outside of liquid hydrogen vent lines poses a potential safety hazard on engine test stands at the NASA Stennis Space Center (SSC). Traditional foam insulations and other commercially available materials did not stand-up to the environment and were costly to install and re-install. To meet this need, an insulating material was developed by Composite Technology Development, Inc. (CTD). The material, CTD-620, is a 2-part epoxy system that cures at temperatures down to 10°C, in high humidity (85%), in less than 8 hours, and utilizes microspheres as the acting insulating component. |
