MLP-300-AZ RF Transparent Primer
MLP-300-AZ is a RF transparent sprayable primer material that provides surface morphology and adhesion to substrates for the application of conventional thermal control paints on spacecraft and satellites. The use of MLP-300-AZ allows ceramic thermal control paints such as AZ Technology’s AZ-93 white thermal control paint to be used to coat a variety of substrates: alodined and sealed hard anodized 6061-T6, 7075-T352, and other aluminum alloys; stainless steel; epoxy graphite composites; cyanate ester composites; conversion coated titanium; electroless nickel plating; and even 3 mil thick Kapton film.
