1/ Thixatrope to be used is the manufacturer’s choice. In the development of component A, 6.80 kilograms (15 pounds) (7.95 liters (2.1 gallons)) of Disparlon NS-30 made by King Industries were used.

Manufacturer is responsible for choosing a thixatrope that meets all the requirements herein, including shelf life. Thixatrope is a pigment for calculation purposes.

2/ GENAMID 2000, Cognis Corp.; ANCAMIDE 507, Air Products Chemical Corp.; EPOTUF SF7791, REICHHOLD Chemical.

3/ Aradur 283, Huntsman Advanced Materials.

4/ Titanium dioxide conforming to ASTM D476, Type IV. In the development of component A, DuPont

Tipure R960 was used.

5/ Butyl alcohol conforming to ASTM D304.

6/ Thixatrope to be used is the manufacturer’s choice. In the development of component B, 6.80 kilograms

(15 pounds) (6.81 liters (1.8 gallons)) of Disparlon 6500 made by King Industries were used.

Manufacturer is responsible for choosing a thixatrope that meets all the requirements herein, including shelf life. Thixatrope is a pigment for calculation purposes.

7/ EPON 828, Hexion Chemical Co.; ARALDITE 6010, Huntsman Advanced Materials; DER 331, Dow Chemical Corp.; EPO-TUF 37-140, REICHHOLD Chemical Corp.

8/ Nicron 503, Luzenac, Inc.

9/ Conforming to ASTM D3734, Type I. In the development of component B, AMSCO Super High Flash Naphtha was used.

10/ Use FED-STD-595 color chip number 27886. Color shall be as white as, or whiter than, FED-STD-595 color chip number 27886.

11/ For VOC calculations, component A makes approximately 379 liters (100 gallons) and component B makes approximately 386 liters (102 gallons).

Use of alternate ingredients in this formula must have prior approval of the Naval Sea Systems Command.

Approval will be based on review of data demonstrating equivalent physical, chemical and performance characteristics of paint manufactured with the proposed alternate material and the requirements as specified in 3.4.1 of MIL-DTL-24441. Paint incorporating the proposed alternate ingredient shall conform to all the requirements of this military specification sheet and the general specification.
