Description of Driving Event:

To meet environmental requirements, a program decision was made to change the Pressure Sensitive Adhesive used in the J-flap of the segment of the Shuttle Reusable Solid Rocket Motor (RSRM) and the solvent used in the joint cleaning process. A new Pressure Sensitive Adhesive was acquired and a solvent-based cleaning wipe was replaced with an aqueous-based joint cleaning process. Post flight analysis of the RSRM flight article revealed greater than expected erosion, sooting and heat effects on the insulation interfaces.
