Paper reports types of contamination which may be expected, source of these contaminants, their effects on aircraft performance and structural integrity, and preventive measures which can be taken; role of mercaptans, surfactants, and acids (mineral and organic) in deterioration of fuel tank coatings with subsequent leaks and/or corrosion is shown; firm policy must be formulated to maintain aircraft fuel tanks and this policy enforced by each operator; Buna-N topcoatings used in integral fuel tanks are nutrients for certain microbiological growth; use of coatings of this type should be discontinued, especially in areas where they may be contacted by water and microorganisms.
