as an adhesive sealant to be used during the manufacture of particulate filters. The edgeseal
material requirements, physical property requirements, and edgeseal --- in --- filter DMMP gas
life requirements in this specification were extracted from MIL --- E --- 51483(EA). The edgeseal
material is military unique because it is intended to have some resistance to vaporous chemical
agent penetration.
