Abstract

The application relates to a thermal control tape, system, and method for a spacecraft structure. A thermal control tape for providing thermal control of a spacecraft structure, to which the thermal control tape is applied is provided. The thermal control tape has a filled silicone resin layer having a first side and a second side. The filled silicone resin layer has a silicone resin material filled with a white inorganic filler material. The tape further has a silicone pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) layer having a first side and a second side, the first side of the silicone PSA layer attached to the second side of the filled silicone resin layer. The filled silicone resin layer and the silicone PSA layer form the thermal control tape, with the second side of the silicone PSA layer configured for attachment to at least one surface of the spacecraft structure of a spacecraft, to provide thermal control of the spacecraft structure, by radiating heat away from the spacecraft structure.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to thermal control coatings, systems, and methods for spacecraft, and more specifically, to thermal control bands, band systems, and methods applied to spacecraft structures to remove thermal radiation from the spacecraft structure. To provide thermal control. Background technique [0002] Spacecraft traveling through space, such as satellites, rockets, and other unmanned and manned spacecraft may be exposed to extreme temperatures or environmental events, which may adversely affect the surfaces of the spacecraft. In order to provide thermal control for spacecraft structures made of materials such as aluminum, titanium, composite materials or plastics that require low solar absorption and high emissivity optical properties, one or more surfaces of such spacecraft structures usually need to be painted Or coated with a white organic coating. [0003] There are known thermally controlled spray paint coatings, paint spra...
