ABSTRACT:
Structures composed at least partially of an organic substrate are protected from oxidation by applying a catalyst onto said substrate for promoting the combination of atomic oxygen to molecular oxygen. The structure may also be protected by applying both a catalyst and an atomic oxygen shielding layer onto the substrate. The invention is useful for enhancing the protection of polymeric blankets, solar arrays and spacecraft surfaces in low earth orbit from cavities produced by atomic oxygen.
