• Needs a small diameter strength member with specific tensile and
geometric requirements that current product was not achieving
• Requires a solution that is also black and UV resistant, as existing
aramid yarns are not available in color (coating is not acceptable
for the application due to off-gassing complications)
• Withstands extreme, prolonged thermal cycling
• Acts as a critical component for safe re-entry into earth’s
atmosphere at the end of the satellite’s life cycle

They also can pass comprehensive xenon and environmental aging tests and show no visual defects, deformation, or stickiness after short-term (6 hours at 100°C) and long-term (500 hours at 90°C) thermal aging.

When melt processing fluoropolymers, accelerated thermal decomposition should be avoided by having accurate temperature control, and in some cases, using corrosion-resistant materials for processing equipment3.
