Silver Teflon® FEP film is a high-performance film manufactured for space, cryogenic, and optical applications. In space-based applications, SQUID3's AgFEP film is suitable for use as a single-layer Flexible Optical Solar Reflector (FOSR). It is ideal for LEO missions with operating temperatures ranging from -150°C to 125°C. This FOSR features an electrically conductive Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coating to mitigate spacecraft surface charging.
Applications for SQUID3's AgFEP films
- Spacecraft Thermal Control
- Quantum Computing
- Cryogenic Flexible Cables
- Optical Mirrors
Optical Performance
- Reflectance: >90%
- Normal Emittance: 40-80% (depending on film thickness)
Film thickness is available in 0.5, 1, 2, 5, or 10 mil. Maximum film width is 24 inches. This product meets NASA requirements for low thermal vacuum outgassing (ASTM E-595) where TML <1.0% and CVCM <0.1%.
