2. Introduction
This work is being performed under an OSD initiative to fund corrosion prevention and control projects that would provide rapid, measurable, corrosion benefit to weapon systems.
WR-ALC received matching funds for conducting a field trial of proven corrosion prevention compounds (CPC) on operational aircraft.

4. Contract Plan
CPC to be applied to corrosion-prone areas on 2 or 3 aircraft at Lackland AFB (May), Westover ARB (June) and Stewart ANG (June).
CPC performance will be monitored for a period of 24 months.
Copper sensors (unobtrusive) from Battelle will be installed.
A few Steel sensors (short life) will also be installed.
Coated and Uncoated Sensors installed in each area.
Download data from sensors at 6, 12, and 18 months.
Data will be used to determine:
Reapplication intervals for CPC
Fluid contact within area
Touch-up of CPC is anticipated during verification process.
Results will be considered for CPC applications to entire fleet through T.O. 1C-5A-23.
5. CPC SELECTIONTypes Characteristically, there are three types of CPC’s.
Thin Film
Displace water and penetrate voids in faying surfaces, cracks, and around fastener heads.
Less effective in areas of high water runoff when compared to waxy or hard film compounds.
Waxy
Non-water displacing or barrier type compounds.
Do not penetrate faying surfaces very well.
No planned use of these compounds at this time.
Hard Film
Penetrating, water-displacement capabilities along with barrier type performance with one product.
Penetrate voids, cracks, or faying surfaces and displace moisture.
Cures to a very firm, non-tacky, barrier type film.
6. CPC SELECTIONRe-Application Considerations All are considered temporary when compared to the more durable paint type finishes like epoxy primer and polyurethane topcoats.
Require periodic reapplication and/or touch-up to remain effective.
Sensor Data will be used to determine reapplication intervals.
Reapplication intervals expected to be anywhere from 1 month to several years.
7. CPC SELECTIONDecision Process Data Used to Select CPC:
Each Treatment Area
Corrosion type (SCC, exfoliation, paint degradation, fluid entrapment, condensation, or a combination)
Reapplication intervals
Material (ferrous/non-ferrous)
Existing finish
Environmental influences
wheel well vs crown skin
8. C-5 CPC TREATMENT AREASSELECTION PROCESS Data Used to Select Corrosion Prone Areas:
CPAB, ASIP, FSIP, PIWG (User Conferences)
T.O. 1C-5A-23 (Corrosion Manual)
AFTO 107, AFTO 202, AFTO 95 (Discrepancy Forms)
FODATS, STFS (Discrepancy Databases)
Telecom, Email (Open Communication)
Candidate Treatment Areas were Finalized Based Upon the Following Requirements:
Accessibility (Base level)
Varying environmental conditions
Data applicable to multiple areas
Ability to be combined with other treatment areas to determine any adverse reactions between CPC, while reducing cleaning area .

26. T.O. INCORPORATION CPC application procedures will be verified during CPC applications by vendor.
Lockheed will provide T.O. source data to WR-ALC to submit for publication in T.O. 1C-5A-23.
Depot and base personnel input will determine best time to apply CPC into existing inspection intervals.
Maintenance work cards (T.O. 1C-5A-6WC) will be modified as necessary.
PDM work cards will be modified as necessary.
