scope:

This specification relates to a material suitable for the impregnation of flexible fibrous substrates used in the manufacture of gunbarrel thermal blankets. The cured coating provides a near-matt finish for camouflage purposes. The material shall retain its properties and withstand normal service use for a period of not less than one year.

The material is intended for impregnation of the substrate prior to curing (vulcanizing), but it may, in certain circumstances be thinned with appropriate thinners for brush application to subsequently applied fittings and repair work.

When the material is ordered in colour No. 285 NATO green of BS 381C the material shall also satisfy the requirements of DEF STAN 00-23 which implements STANAG 2338.
