C.A.R.C. Powder Coating

Overview

C.A.R.C. which stands for chemical agent resistant coating, is the organic topcoat that is used on all armed services’ combat vehicles, aircrafts, and tactical equipment. It is a two part polyurethane that is resistant to water, petroleum, acids, biological, and radioactive agents. These coatings produce a non-porous coat that impedes radioactivity, chemical and biological contaminants from penetrating the coating and the base material. Instead of penetrating the coating, chemicals bead up on the exterior of the surface and are washed off easily.

 

Key Performance Properties of C.A.R.C. Powdercoat:

  • Water, weather, and chemical resistant
  • Low infrared detectability
  • Scuff and scratch resistant
  • Low reflectivity

 

Specifications:

  • MIL-DTL-64159
  • MIL-C-53039
  • MIL-DTL-53072
  • MIL-P-53030
  • MIL-P-53032
