A Method for Measuring the Spectral Normal Emittance in Air of A Variety of Materials Having Stable Emittance Characteristics

A method and apparatus is described for the measurement of spectral normal emittance in air of a variety of materials. The system permits measurements to be performed over a wavelength region of 1.0 through 15.0 microns and over a temperature range of 600F to 1,8000F with an accuracy of 5.0 percent. The advantages of this system are described. Results obtained by this system are compared with results reported by another observer using a different technique.

Stable White Coatings

In a previous research program for the Jet Propulsion- Laboratory, extensive studies led to the development and specifications of three zinc oxide-pigmented thermal-control coatings. The principal objectives of this program are: improvement of the three paints (as engineering materials), determination of the validity of our accelerated space-simulation testing, and continuation of the zinc oxide photolysis studies begun in the preceding program. Specific tasks that are discussed include: improvement of potassium silicate coatings as engineering materials and elucidation of their storage and handling problems; improvement of methyl silicone coatings as engineering materials; studies of zinc oxide photolysis to establish reasons for the observed stability of zinc oxide; and determination of space-simulation parameters such as long-term stability (to 8000 ESH), effect of coating surface temperature on the rate of degradation, and validity of accelerated testing (by reciprocity and wavelength dependency studies).
