Criteria for Selection of Wire Insulations for Use in Space Applications.
Abstract
The properties of five electrical insulation materials were compared, to provide a guide for selecting wire insulations in spacecraft. Of all the properties considered, the outgassing characteristics, radiation resistance, and weight of the materials were considered most important for space applications. Also considered were the workability of these insulations and the amount of fabrication deterioration that wires and cables using them can withstand.
