What is Composite Durability in Space Environments about?
This document summarizes research examining the durability of three commercial composite materials for use in deployable space structures when exposed to an atomic oxygen (AO) environment. Samples of the materials underwent AO exposure testing using a plasma asher to simulate low Earth orbit conditions. Material properties including surface chemistry, morphology, and flexural stiffness were measured before and after exposure. Results showed the resin surface was almost entirely eroded on all materials, with
