AkzoNobel 23T3-10/PC-216 Flat White BMS 10-86 Abrasion Resistant Coating – Quart Kit

AkzoNobel 23T3-10/PC-216 is a flat white (FS00) abrasion-resistant polyurethane coating qualified to Boeing Material Specification BMS 10-86 Type I, Grade D — used on aerospace surfaces subject to high foot traffic, abrasive wear, cargo loading abrasion, and other mechanical damage mechanisms where standard aircraft topcoats would quickly degrade. BMS 10-86 specifies the abrasion resistance, adhesion, chemical resistance, and flexibility requirements for coatings applied to cargo compartments, baggage bays, galley floors, wheel well surfaces, and other high-wear aircraft areas requiring enhanced durability beyond standard exterior topcoat specifications.

Cargo compartment and baggage bay surfaces experience abrasive damage from baggage and cargo loading and unloading, cargo net restraint hardware contact, and foot traffic during loading operations. Standard aircraft topcoats applied to these areas quickly abrade through to bare metal, requiring frequent repainting that is both costly and time-consuming. BMS 10-86 qualified abrasion-resistant coatings significantly extend the maintenance interval between cargo compartment repainting operations, reducing total lifecycle maintenance cost for these high-wear areas.

The quart kit provides a maintenance-scale quantity for repair painting of cargo compartment surfaces, galley floor touch-up, and wheel well area coating repair where the full gallon is not required for the repair scope.

Technical Information

AkzoNobel 23T3-10/PC-216 is a two-component aliphatic polyurethane system with enhanced abrasion resistance achieved through higher crosslink density, toughening additives, or specialized filler particles compared to standard aircraft topcoat formulations. The abrasion resistance is quantified by the BMS 10-86 specification test methods — typically Taber abrasion testing at specified wheel load and cycle count — and must meet the Grade D minimum abrasion resistance requirement to qualify under the specification.

The flat white FS00 color is commonly specified for cargo compartment interiors and wheel well areas where a light-colored surface aids visual inspection for damage, contamination, and fluid leaks during pre-flight and maintenance walkarounds. The flat finish reduces glare from inspection lighting in the enclosed compartment environment.

The two-component polyurethane system requires mixing at the specified ratio before application. The mixed coating has a limited pot life — apply within pot life for correct application viscosity and film formation. Allow full cure before returning the area to cargo loading operations — premature loading before full cure reduces the coating’s abrasion resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is AkzoNobel 23T3-10/PC-216?
A: 23T3-10/PC-216 is a BMS 10-86 qualified flat white abrasion-resistant polyurethane coating for Boeing aircraft high-wear surfaces — providing extended maintenance intervals for cargo compartments, baggage bays, and galley floors.

Q: MPN for AkzoNobel 23T3-10 quart?
A: MPN is S65024.

Q: What is BMS 10-86?
A: BMS 10-86 is Boeing’s material specification for abrasion-resistant coatings applied to high-wear aircraft surfaces. It specifies abrasion resistance, adhesion, flexibility, and chemical resistance requirements beyond those of standard aircraft topcoat specifications.

Q: Why is abrasion-resistant coating needed in cargo compartments?
A: Cargo and baggage loading abrades standard topcoats quickly, requiring frequent repainting. BMS 10-86 coatings provide significantly more abrasion resistance, extending the maintenance interval between cargo compartment repainting operations.

Q: What is FS00 color?
A: FS00 is a Federal Standard 595 color designation indicating flat white — the low-gloss white color used in aircraft cargo compartments and interior areas where light-colored, low-reflectivity finish is specified.
