Under this contract, RO-59 will work with webbing manufactures to optimize the coating application processes for cotton products, including soft shelters, parachutes, clothing, and truck covers. This work will involve supplyin g coating to and working with webbing manufacturers so that the application process can be integrated into their various military production lines. The specific coating formulations will be provided to NSC so that quality control methods may be developed. This unique material and manufacturing capability is required to make a product that meets military requirements. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals.
