Double aluminized polyester film is constructed of a Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) film
with a thin layer of aluminum deposited on both sides.
Double aluminized PET film is also referred to as double aluminized Mylar® film.
The material has a long and proven spaceflight heritage.
It is most commonly used as inner material in satellite MLI blankets and for cryogenic applications.
Double Aluminized polyester film is excellent for:
- Inner-layer thermal insulation for spacecraft
- Low to mid-range temperature environments
- Cryogenic applications
Material Properties :
