The invention relates to
thermal control film on the surface of
magnesium lithium alloy, and a preparation method of the
thermal control film. According to the preparation method, because a micro-arcoxidation
electrolyte system suitable for the
magnesium lithium alloy is built on the basis of a lot of solution screening experiments, electrical parameters matched with the
solution system are created on the basis of a lot of electrical parameter optimization tests, the
binding force of the film prepared on the surface of the
magnesium lithium alloy is guaranteed, and the composition of the filmis changed by
doping the
electrolyte with
zirconium salt, then remarkable improvement on
thermal control performance of the film is achieved, and the thermal control film meeting the requirements forthermal control of a
spacecraft product is prepared on the surface of the magnesium lithium alloy finally. According to the thermal control film on the surface of the magnesium lithium alloy, a micro-arc oxidation technology is adopted, the magnesium lithium alloy is used as a substrate, one layer of
ceramic film grows on the surface of the magnesium lithium alloy in an in-situ manner, the film is doped with the
zirconium oxide with good thermal control performance,
infrared emittance of the film ranges from 0.80 to 0.90, the
solar absorptance ranges from 0.20 to 0.30, the part dimensions andthe
assembly accuracy of the magnesium lithium alloy are not affected, and the film can be applied to spacecrafts instead of organic coatings.
