POLYMERight proposes to develop field repair kits that will prevent the compromise of collective protection systems if their integrity is lost. The adhesive chemistry utilized can quickly, easily and dependably bond the like and unlike surfaces together,including Kevlar, polyfluorinated materials, polyolefins, PVC and other materials associated with collective protection systems. It will be teste ...

The objective of this proposal is to develop an improved baculovirus transfer vector that contains features enabling real time monitoring of protein expression, high level protein production and rapid protein purification from the insect cells. We proposeto build this new vector based upon our proprietary pPSC12 transfer vector that already contains the powerful polyhedrin promoter, believed by ma ...

"Advances in spread spectrum communications systems have provided military and other users with readily available low-probability-of-intercept transceivers for secure, clandestine communications. The use of these systems may constitute a threat to SpecialOperations Forces. These forces need a system to detect, identify, locate, and copy modern LPI communication emitters to counter this threat. T ...

The proposed effort addresses the threat warning receiver for the SOF through prototype design, development, fabrication, and experimental testing of a miniaturized receiver that: (1) has negligible emissions over a bandwidth of 3 to 40 GHz to precludedetection by an enemy receiver, (2) requires extremely low power to operate, (3) can be easily carried or worn and used by SOF, and (4) lends itself ...

A fuze delay function can be achieved in two ways, either electrically or chemically. An electrical fuze delay function uses an in-line electronic S & A, while a chemical delay employs an out-line system. Primary explosives with out-line fuze electronic delay present a safety hazard. Conversely an in-line electronic delay, thus safer, makes use of secondary explosives, which are susceptible to s ...

We propose a new type of military smoke that is based on the optical properties of selectively designed, yet low cost, fabricated nanoscale components. These smokes will have a strong extinction in the visible and infrared regions of the spectra, but canalso selectively block or let pass specific wavelengths of light. Such a smoke can be designed to have a field-selectable transmissive window th ...

"Sensor Research and Development Corporation (SRD) proposes to develop an Automated Measurement of Breakthrough in Real-time (AMBR) prototype to test chemical protective materials. AMBR will increase the safety, efficiency, and sample throughput for fabrictests while improving data quality and expanding test capabilities. SRD will develop AMBR by integrating proven solid-state chemical agent sen ...
