Abstract

To improve the atomic oxygen (AO) erosion resistance of Kapton for application as an aerospace material in low earth orbit (LEO), a graphene-modified polysiloxane-60 vol.% SiO2 (G-PSS) composite coating was prepared and tested for AO exposure at a total flux of 1.86 × 1020 atoms/cm2. The prepared coating with a thickness of 5 μm was smooth, with good adhesion and no macroscopic defects. Its AO erosion yield was 9.77 × 10−27–1.25 × 10−26 cm3/atom, which was about three orders and one order of magnitude lower than that of Kapton and polysiloxane-60vol.%SiO2 (PSS) hybrid coating, respectively. The beneficial effect of graphene was attributed to the effective inhibition of gas permeation by the single-layer graphene due to its unique structure and the more stable epoxy groups produced during the reaction of graphene with AO.
