3.1 Terms defined in other standards
For the purpose of this Standard, the terms and definitions from
ECSS-S-ST-00-01 apply.
3.2 Terms specific to the present standard
3.2.1 absorptance
ratio of the intensity of the incident light to the transmitted or reflected light
3.2.2 emittance (e)
ratio of the radiant intensity of the specimen to that emitted by a black body
radiator at the same temperature and under the same geometric and
wavelength conditions
NOTE For example:
• Hemispherical emittance (eh) - conditions for
incident or viewing of flux over a hemispherical
region.
• Normal emittance (en) - conditions for incidence
or viewing through a solid angle normal to the
specimen.
3.2.3 solar absorptance (α)
ratio of the solar radiant flux absorbed by a material (or body) to that incident
upon it
NOTE Differentiation is made between two methods:
• Spectroscopic method using a photospectrometer
covering the range from 0,25 mm up to 2,5 mm for
the determination of αs.
• Portable equipment using a xenon flash for
relative measurements (αp).

4.1 Preparatory conditions
4.1.1 Hazards, health and safety precautions
a. For “Safety and security” ECSS-Q-ST-20-07C shall apply.
NOTE For example, for hazard and health (safety) and for
access control (security).
4.1.2 Preparation of samples
4.1.2.1 Configuration
a. The supplier shall prepare the material samples according to the process
specification or manufacturer’s data.
b. The material shall be representative of batch variance.
NOTE For example: the application procedure for paint
can result in different thermo-optical properties,
depending on the painter and the type of spray
gun used. This is the reason why the samples are
coated or made at the same time as the workpiece.
4.1.2.2 Cleaning
a. Cleaning method and other treatment of the sample shall be the same
(and not more) as for the flight hardware.
NOTE In particular, solar absorptance properties are very
sensitive to contamination and if the sample or the
flight hardware is contaminated (even by hand
grease), the test results are completely erroneous.
4.1.2.3 Handling and storage
a. The supplier shall handle the samples with clean nylon or lint-free
gloves.

b. The supplier shall store the samples in a cleanliness-controlled area, with
a room temperature of (20 ± 3) °C and relative humidity of (55 ± 10) %.
c. The supplier shall shield coated surfaces from contact by using
polyethylene or polypropylene bags or sheets.
d. The supplier shall avoid mechanical damage of the sample by packing
the polyethylene or polypropylene-wrapped workpieces in clean, dust-
and lint-free material.
e. The supplier shall label limited-life materials with their relative shelf
lives and dates of manufacture.
4.1.2.4 Identification
a. The supplier shall use a completed “Material identification card” in
conformance with DRD in ECSS-Q-ST-70-02 for samples submitted for
testing.
b. The supplier shall verify the existence of a safety data sheet for
hazardous samples
NOTE The safety data sheet is a set of information
provided by the supplier of the chemical
substance.
4.1.3 Facilities
4.1.3.1 Cleanliness
a. The supplier shall keep the work area clean and free of dust.
b. The supplier shall use filters for the air used for ventilation.
NOTE This is to prevent contamination of the sample.
4.1.3.2 Environmental conditions
a. The ambient conditions for the process and work areas shall be
(22 ± 3) °C with a relative humidity of (55 ± 10) % unless otherwise stated.
4.1.3.3 Equipment
a. The supplier shall define the equipment in the test procedure.
4.2 Selection of test methods
a. The supplier shall select one or more of the following test methods
depending on the type and size of the samples:
1. Solar absorptance using spectrometer (αs),
NOTE For details and conditions for the samples see
Annex C.2.
2. Comparative test method (αp),
NOTE For details and conditions for the samples see

4.3 Quality assurance
4.3.1 Data
a. The supplier shall retain the quality records for ten years or in
accordance with project contract requirements.
NOTE Example of quality records are log sheets.
b. An evaluation report shall be produced in conformance with Annex A
and is a quality record
4.3.2 Calibration
a. The supplier shall calibrate any measuring equipment to traceable
reference standards.
b. The supplier shall record any suspected or actual equipment failure as a
project nonconformance report in conformance with NCR DRD in
ECSS-Q-ST-10-09.
NOTE This is to ensure that previous results can be
examined to ascertain whether or not reinspection
and retesting is necessary.
4.4 Audit of measurement equipment
4.4.1 General
a. The customer shall perform the standard audit according to
ECSS-Q-ST-10.
NOTE 1 The main purpose of a standard audit is to ensure
the validity of test results by comparison of the test
data on identical materials by different test houses.
NOTE 2 The thermo-optical property data from test houses
for the projects of the customer, obtained in the
manner laid down in this Standard, are only
accepted for the projects of the customer if the test

Terms, definitions and abbreviated terms
3.1 Terms defined in other standards
For the purpose of this Standard, the terms and definitions from
ECSS-S-ST-00-01 apply.
3.2 Terms specific to the present standard
3.2.1 absorptance
ratio of the intensity of the incident light to the transmitted or reflected light
3.2.2 emittance (ε)
ratio of the radiant intensity of the specimen to that emitted by a black body
radiator at the same temperature and under the same geometric and
wavelength conditions
NOTE For example:
• Hemispherical emittance ( εh) - conditions for
incident or viewing of flux over a hemispherical
region.
• Normal emittance ( εn) - conditions for incidence
or viewing through a solid angle normal to the
specimen.
3.2.3 solar absorptance (α)
ratio of the solar radiant flux absorbed by a material (or body) to that incident
upon it
NOTE Differentiation is made between two methods:
• Spectroscopic method using a photospectrometer
covering the range from 0,25 µm up to 2,5 µm for
the determination of αs.
• Portable equipment using a xenon flash for
relative measurements ( αp).
3.3 Abbreviated terms
The abbreviated terms defined in ECSS-S-ST-00-01 apply.

Requirements
4.1 Preparatory conditions
4.1.1 Hazards, health and safety precautions
a. For “Safety and security” ECSS-Q-ST-20-07C shall apply.
NOTE For example, for hazard and health (safety) and for
access control (security).
4.1.2 Preparation of samples
4.1.2.1 Configuration
a. The supplier shall prepare the material samples according to the process
specification or manufacturer’s data.
b. The material shall be representative of batch variance.
NOTE For example: the application procedure for paint
can result in different thermo-optical properties,
depending on the painter and the type of spray
gun used. This is the reason why the samples are
coated or made at the same time as the workpiece.
4.1.2.2 Cleaning
a. Cleaning method and other treatment of the sample shall be the same
(and not more) as for the flight hardware.
NOTE In particular, solar absorptance properties are very
sensitive to contamination and if the sample or the
flight hardware is contaminated (even by hand
grease), the test results are completely erroneous.
4.1.2.3 Handling and storage
a. The supplier shall handle the samples with clean nylon or lint-free
gloves.

b. The supplier shall store the samples in a cleanliness-controlled area, with
a room temperature of (20 ± 3) °C and relative humidity of (55 ± 10) %.
c. The supplier shall shield coated surfaces from contact by using
polyethylene or polypropylene bags or sheets.
d. The supplier shall avoid mechanical damage of the sample by packing
the polyethylene or polypropylene-wrapped workpieces in clean, dust-
and lint-free material.
e. The supplier shall label limited-life materials with their relative shelf
lives and dates of manufacture.
4.1.2.4 Identification
a. The supplier shall use a completed “Material identification card” in
conformance with DRD in ECSS-Q-ST-70-02 for samples submitted for
testing.

reference standards.
b. The supplier shall record any suspected or actual equipment failure as a
project nonconformance report in conformance with NCR DRD in
ECSS-Q-ST-10-09.
NOTE This is to ensure that previous results can be
examined to ascertain whether or not reinspection
and retesting is necessary.
4.4 Audit of measurement equipment
4.4.1 General
a. The customer shall perform the standard audit according to
ECSS-Q-ST-10.
NOTE 1 The main purpose of a standard audit is to ensure
the validity of test results by comparison of the test
data on identical materials by different test houses.
