White UV reflective coating

Special coating with very good adhesion to the substrate and a layer thickness between 10 and 100 x m with an accuracy of 5 Ã…m. Special application for the mission to the planet Mercury (Mission: BepiColombo).

For a mission to the planet Mercury (mission: BepiColombo) a special coating had to be developed, because previous coatings were not suitable. All normal paints and also established coatings for satellite components were unsuitable and failed in tests; i.e. there was chipping in the thermal UV vacuum chambers of ESA or the coatings turned black.
