Popis:	The rationale for selecting composite materials with an anodized aluminum foil coating for the Space Station is presented. Data on the effects of the space service environment on these materials are given. Results are also presented on the effect of optical properties of an aluminum/aluminum oxide coating on the thermal balance of the cylindrical structural members. The resistance of this coating to solar ultraviolet degradation is discussed.
