[0002] In recent years, my country has completed major aerospace projects represented by lunar exploration, Mars exploration, and space station construction, and China's aerospace technology has continued to reach new heights. After entering orbit, the spacecraft is in a high vacuum environment, and the materials used will release volatile organic gas molecules, which will cause serious contamination to its sensitive surfaces, causing degradation of optical, thermal and even electrical properties. Most spacecraft are equipped with equipment that is sensitive to molecular contamination. The risk of damage to related sensitive surfaces and reduced performance must be taken seriously by researchers and addressed in the early stages of instrument development. With increasingly stringent requirements for safety and reliability of spacecraft, contamination control has gradually become one of the key factors for the success of most space missions.

[0003] In order to accurately evaluate the adsorption performance of adsorbent materials on molecular pollutants in the space environment, in addition to conducting flight test research in space, space environment simulation tests on the ground are essential. The space environment of a spacecraft is complex and changeable. The temperature of a spacecraft on orbit may vary between -200℃ and 100℃, and the vacuum degree of a spacecraft at different altitudes on orbit will vary. The vacuum degree range is generally 10 -4 ~10 -12 Pa. In addition, vacuum high-energy radiation represented by ultraviolet rays will have a synergistic effect with pollutant molecules, greatly increasing the difficulty of testing. Therefore, developing a pollutant release and adsorption device that simulates the aerospace environment, which can achieve real-time monitoring of the pollutant gas volatilization process, accurately simulate the temperature and vacuum changes in the complex aerospace environment, and simulate the synergistic effect between ultraviolet rays and pollutant molecules, will provide guidance for the development of adsorption materials for molecular contamination control.

[0028] Specific implementation method 1: Combination Figure 1The present embodiment is described as a pollutant release and adsorption device simulating a space environment, comprising a vacuum chamber 1, a pollutant release source 2 installed on the vacuum chamber 1, an ultraviolet light source 3, a vacuum pump, a vacuum gauge 6 and a temperature controller 7, and a quartz crystal microbalance 8, a heating radiation plate 9, a zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 and a liquid helium circulation device 11 installed in the vacuum chamber 1, wherein the quartz crystal microbalance 8, the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 and the pollutant release source 2 are located in the same horizontal plane and the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 and the pollutant release source 2 are arranged opposite each other, the ultraviolet light emitted by the ultraviolet light source 3 covers the coating surface of the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10, the heating radiation plate 9 is connected to the temperature controller 7, the vacuum degree in the vacuum chamber 1 is controlled by the vacuum pump and the vacuum gauge 6, and the vacuum port on the vacuum chamber 1 connected to the vacuum pump is located on the side of the quartz crystal microbalance 8 away from the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10.

[0029] Porous adsorption materials such as zeolite molecular sieves have large specific surface areas and rich pore structures, and are highly potential adsorption materials for molecular pollutants.

[0030] Molecular contaminants are room temperature curing structural adhesives, silicone oils, pump oils, hydrocarbons or esters.

[0031] The quartz crystal microbalance 8 and the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 are respectively fixed in the vacuum chamber body 1 through mounting frames.

[0032] There are multiple zeolite adsorption coating plates 10 and they are laid on their corresponding mounting frames, and the mounting frames for mounting the zeolite adsorption coating plates 10 are located at the central axis of the cylindrical vacuum chamber 1. The two mounting frames are mounted in the vacuum chamber 1 through a fixing plate.

[0033] The quartz crystal microbalance, the zeolite adsorption coating plate and the pollutant release source are located at the same horizontal plane and the zeolite adsorption coating plate and the pollutant release source are arranged opposite each other. Specifically, the volume of the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 is much smaller than the volume of the pollutant release source 2. When arranging the position, it is only necessary to ensure that the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 is in the space opposite to the pollutant release source 2. The vacuum port connected to the vacuum pump on the vacuum chamber is located on the side of the quartz crystal microbalance away from the zeolite adsorption coating plate to avoid affecting the adsorption of pollutants due to the vacuum port facing the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10.

[0034] The heating radiation plate 9 and the liquid helium circulation device 11 are installed on the inner wall of the vacuum chamber body 1; the heating radiation plate 9 is connected to the temperature controller 7, and the temperature in the vacuum chamber body 1 is controlled by the temperature controller 7 during heating. The temperature at which the molecular pollutants are released is the same as the temperature of the heating radiation plate, or the temperature difference between the two is in the range of 0 to 5°C, which is more conducive to the full release and volatilization of the molecular pollutants.

[0035] The liquid helium circulation device 11 is connected to a liquid helium inlet 11 - 1 and a liquid helium outlet 11 - 2 .

[0036] The device of the present invention can accurately control the conditions such as temperature, vacuum degree and high-energy rays to simulate the real aerospace environment, and release the space pollutant molecules in situ in the simulated aerospace environment, test the vacuum adsorption capacity of the adsorption material, and is equipped with a quartz crystal microbalance 8 to monitor the volatilization rate of the pollutants in real time to determine whether the adsorption has reached saturation.

[0037] The distance between the quartz crystal microbalance 8 and the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 is less than or equal to 5 cm.

[0038] The distance between the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 and the pollutant release source 2 is 10 cm to 13 cm.

[0039] The ultraviolet light source 3 is a nitrogen laser, an argon discharge lamp or a deuterium discharge lamp.

[0040] The vacuum pump includes a mechanical pump 4 and a molecular pump 5 .

[0041] The vacuum chamber body 1 is a cylindrical structure with an inner diameter of 25 cm and a height of 50 cm.

[0042] The vacuum chamber body 1 is made of stainless steel.

[0044] The vacuum chamber body 1 is provided with a chamber door 12 and a deflation valve 13 .

[0045] A method for using the above-mentioned pollutant release and adsorption device in a simulated aerospace environment comprises the following steps:

[0046] Step 1, weigh the mass m1 of the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 before adsorption, and then place the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 in the vacuum chamber 1; in the process of fixing the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10, first open the chamber door 12, then place the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 on the mounting frame, and then close the chamber door 12.

[0047] Step 2: Use a vacuum pump to evacuate the vacuum chamber 1 until the required vacuum degree is reached; use different vacuum pumps according to different vacuum degree requirements, such as: if the test vacuum degree setting value is from normal pressure to 1×10 -1 Pa, a mechanical pump 4 is used; if the test vacuum setting value is 1×10 -4 ~1×10 -12 Pa, first use mechanical pump 4 to evacuate to 1×10 -1Pa, then turn off the mechanical pump 4 and turn on the molecular pump 5 until the set value is reached.

[0048] Step 3, according to the test temperature setting value, the heating radiation plate 9 or the liquid helium circulation device 11 is selected to start; when the test temperature setting value is high temperature, the heating radiation plate 9 is heated and the temperature in the vacuum chamber 1 is controlled by the temperature controller 7 to reach room temperature to 100°C, so as to obtain a high temperature environment; when the test temperature setting value is low temperature, liquid helium is slowly introduced into the liquid helium inlet 11-1 of the liquid helium circulation device 11, and the temperature in the vacuum chamber 1 is controlled by the temperature controller 7 to reach room temperature to -200°C, so as to obtain a low temperature environment.

The quartz crystal microbalance 8 has a good indication function. According to the change of the detected pollutant flux, it can be judged whether the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 is close to or reaches the saturated adsorption amount (the pollutant flux no longer changes, that is, the adsorption saturation is reached).

[0052] Step 7: After the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 is saturated with adsorption, the adsorption process is completed, the heating radiation plate 9 or the liquid helium circulation device 11 is turned off, and the ultraviolet light source 3 and the pollutant release source 2 are turned off.

According to the change of the detected pollutant flux, it can be judged whether the zeolite adsorption coating plate 10 is close to or reaches the saturated adsorption amount (the pollutant flux no longer changes, that is, the adsorption saturation is reached).
