Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a thermal control composite film and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Thermal radiation is the only way for a spacecraft to dissipate heat into outer space, and the thermal control coating is a key factor for the spacecraft to dissipate heat externally. In the traditional low-temperature deep space environment, aerospace thermal control coatings with low solar absorptance and high infrared emissivity are generally used, such as white paint, second surface mirror (OSR), etc. with low solar absorptance and high infrared emissivity.
[0003] However, for scenarios such as Venus, Mercury, and lunar surface exploration, the temperature will remain at a relatively high level and the temperature difference between day and night is large under the sunlight environment. Under the illumination condition, the solar irradiance heat flow is absorbed by the thermal control coating on the spacecraft surface and enters the spacecraft, resulting in an increase in the internal temperature; at the same time, under the cryogenic space condition, the thermal control coating on the spacecraft surface dissipates heat to the space environment in the form of infrared thermal radiation, resulting in a decrease in its temperature. According to the Stefan-Boltzmann law, when the spacecraft reaches the thermal equilibrium state, its surface temperature is determined by the absorption-emission ratio, and a low absorption-emission ratio corresponds to a lower equilibrium temperature.
[0004] In the new application scenarios, new indexes are proposed for the thermal control film: low solar absorptance and low infrared emissivity; reducing the maximum value of the external heat flux under high-temperature working conditions and lowering the temperature of the cabin wall; at the same time, in the low-temperature environment, the low infrared emissivity reduces the heat loss, reduces the external heat dissipation of the spacecraft interior, and provides a heat preservation effect; the solar absorptance is less than the infrared emissivity, obtaining a low absorption-emission ratio, reducing the equilibrium temperature of the spacecraft cabin wall, and ensuring a comfortable working environment for the personnel inside the spacecraft and the normal operation of the equipment.
[0005] However, in the existing aerospace low-solar-absorptance and low-infrared-emissivity thermal control film technology, there are problems such as insufficiently low solar absorptance, insufficiently low absorption-emission ratio, poor environmental stability of the film, and complex preparation process.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a composite film with low cost, which can significantly reduce the solar absorptance and absorption-emission ratio at the same time, and has stable properties, so as to cope with the high-temperature alternating environment in deep space exploration. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The present invention aims to solve the problems existing in the existing thermal control film, such as the inability to further reduce the solar absorptance and absorption-emission ratio, poor environmental stability of the film, and complex preparation process, and further provides a low-solar-absorptance and low-infrared-emissivity composite film and a preparation method thereof.
[0008] A low-solar-absorptance and low-infrared-emissivity composite film is composed of a substrate, a transition material layer I, a transition material layer II, a reflection layer, a transition material layer II, and a dielectric layer from bottom to top in sequence;
[0009] The described dielectric layer is formed by alternating dielectric material layer I and dielectric material layer II, and both the bottommost layer and the topmost layer from bottom to top in the dielectric layer are dielectric material layer I; let the total number of dielectric material layer I and dielectric material layer II in the dielectric layer be n, where n = 5 - 13 and n is an odd number.
[0010] A preparation method of a composite film with low solar absorptance and low infrared emissivity is carried out according to the following steps:
[0011] I. Pretreatment before film layer deposition:
[0012] Ion beam bombardment is carried out on the substrate at normal temperature or under heating conditions to obtain an ion beam bombarded substrate;
[0013] II. Depositing film layers:
[0014] By using electron beam evaporation method, magnetron sputtering method or vacuum ion coating method, a transition material layer I, a transition material layer II, a reflective layer, a transition material layer II and a dielectric layer are sequentially deposited on the ion beam bombarded substrate to obtain a composite film with low solar absorptance and low infrared emissivity.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0016] I. The composite film with low solar absorptance and low infrared emissivity provided by the present invention can significantly reduce the solar absorptance and the absorption - emission ratio. The structure of the composite film consists of a transition layer, a reflective layer and a dielectric layer. The transition layer ensures good bonding force between the substrate and the reflective layer, and between the reflective layer and the dielectric layer; the reflective layer enables the composite film to have low infrared emissivity; the dielectric layer can improve the environmental stability such as antioxidant, waterproof and wear - resistant properties of the reflective layer while increasing the reflectivity in the visible band. The dielectric layer adopts a stacked structure of one - dimensional photonic crystal, which is formed by alternately stacking two materials with different refractive indices in one direction, and can form photonic bandgap and photonic localization characteristics. The photonic bandgap uses the constructive interference effect generated by the refractive index difference to form broadband high - reflection characteristics in the corresponding band. Through optical design of the multi - layer film and matching combination of different film thicknesses, high - reflection effect in the visible band can be achieved, thereby obtaining low solar absorptance and low absorption - emission ratio, and solving the problem that the solar absorptance and absorption - emission ratio of the existing thermal control film cannot be further reduced.
[0017] II. The composite film with low solar absorptance and low infrared emissivity provided by the present invention can maintain stable performance after solar irradiation experiment, ultraviolet irradiation experiment, high - low temperature resistance experiment and damp - heat aging experiment. The solar - band absorptance and infrared - band emissivity of the film are basically the same as the initial state. This technology is a low - cost, safe and simple film preparation technology; the optical properties of the film are stable, which is suitable for high - temperature deep - space exploration, ensuring the smooth progress of tasks such as planetary exploration, and at the same time reducing the production process cost.

The dielectric layer adopts a stacked structure of one-dimensional photonic crystals, which is formed by alternately stacking two materials with different refractive indices in one direction, and can form photonic band gaps and photonic localization characteristics. The photonic band gap uses the constructive interference effect generated by the refractive index difference to form broadband high-reflection characteristics in the corresponding band. Through optical design of the multilayer film and matching combinations of different film thicknesses, a high-reflection effect in the visible band can be achieved, thereby obtaining a low solar absorptance and a low absorption-emission ratio, and solving the problem that the solar absorptance and the absorption-emission ratio of existing thermal control films cannot be further reduced.
