ECSS-Q-ST-70-02C, SPACECRAFT PRODUCT ASSURANCE: THERMAL VACUUM OUTGASSING TEST FOR THE SCREENING OF SPACE MATERIALS (15-NOV-2008)

ECSS-Q-ST-70-02C, SPACECRAFT PRODUCT ASSURANCE: THERMAL VACUUM OUTGASSING TEST FOR THE SCREENING OF SPACE MATERIALS (15-NOV-2008)., The kinetics of an outgassing process is influenced by vacuum and temperature conditions. The method described in this Standard gives reliable data for material screening use exclusively. The nominal temperature for the screening test, as described in this standard is 125 °C. Results from the nominal screening test can be used for the screening of materials that have an operational temperature below 50 °C, especially if they are exposed for an extended period of time (in the order of weeks and above).
