Evaluation of Electroconductivity of Two Surface Paints for Spacecraft

Abstract

This article briefly discusses the manufacturing process for two surface paints (used on spacecraft): No. 956 gray paint, and No. 956 green paint. Experimental studies were conducted on both paints at room temperatures in variations of electroconductivity in space environments: in a simulated space vacuum, under electron radiation and under solar radiation. From the experimental results, the states of both surface paints used in orbit can be predicted. In addition, the possibility of using such paints in high orbit is accepted.
