Outgassing in space: materials and space-grade solutions

Key points on outgassing Outgassing is the release of volatile compounds from a material and becomes particularly critical under vacuum conditions. The released compounds can condense on sensors, electronics, and other sensitive surfaces. ASTM E595 and ECSS-Q-ST-70-02C are key references for assessing materials intended for space applications. The TML, RML,…
