Engineered for environments with no margin.
In a sealed cabin, every material shares the same air. Samaritan formulations are designed not to off-gas, generate heat or expand as they set, which makes the platform a candidate for spaceflight and other enclosed settings.
- Medical use in microgravityA seal that stays where it is placed, without loose dressings.
- Sealed-environment safetyDesigned to avoid releasing volatile compounds into recycled air.
- Field repair conceptsExploratory work on sealing and securing components.
