- Abstract
- The purpose of this program is to prepare and evaluate hydraulic fluids to meet the specifications outlined in Bimonthly Report No. 2. The approach has been to synthesize fluorocarbon ethers and ketals with sufficient chain length to impart the proper viscosity and with sufficient halogen to impart fire resistance.
