Abstract:
Cross-plied, oriented film was received at the beginning of this period. Test specimen fabrication was begun using this material. Both full scale and subscale specimens were fabricated. Thirty-two subscale and twelve full scale test panels were fabricated under a variety of preconditioning steps and molding conditions. The specimen fabrication results were evaluated and a molding procedure developed for the initial engineering sample molding trial. A technique for creating a vacuum chamber between caul plates was developed. This procedure which utilizes a silicone rubber seal on an aluminum frame was tested on both subscale and full scale specimen fabrication. Surplus orientation equipment was purchased, inspected, and stored at Swedlow. Author
