    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes general requirements for thermal control coatings (TCC) that are applied on metallic and/or non-metallic surfaces of spacecraft and payloads in order to provide the following thermo-optical properties: - alpha s: solar absorptance; - varepsilon: emittance.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This International Standard defines general requirements for thermal control coatings (TCC) that are applied on metallic and/or non-metallic surfaces of spacecraft and payloads in order to provide the following thermo-optical properties:

    • αs: solar absorptance;

    • ε: emittance.

    The function of TCC is to reduce external heat absorption and/or to regulate radiant heat exchange between on-board equipment on spacecraft.
