Metallic Environmentally Resistant Coatings Rapid Innovation Initiative (MERCRII) Mechanism Development and TestingThis project seeks to address the high friction and low wea resistance of lightweight aluminum (Al) and titanium (Ti) alloys to extend the lifetime and sustainability of both lunar and Martian assets missions by developing advanced wear-and radiation-resistant. MERCRII started with 6 candidate coating materials and 3 candidate application methods that were down-selected through pathfinder and 2 phases of testing to one coating configuration: Ti64 with 2%hBN Vacuum Plasma Spray.
