Abstract

Degradation of parts in thermal vacuum testing may happen through contamination by outgassed products. Vacuum outgassing tests for a cable material were systemically conducted and two parameters of the cable material, namely the TML and the CVCM were measured at three temperatures after outgassing tests in vacuum environment. CVCM curves at various times at 65 °C were evaluated and the components of the cable material at three temperatures were tested. The results from these tests provided the condition and criterion of the end of vacuum bakeout test.
