Abstract
A composition for covering satellite solar panels includes an encapsulating resin, a conductive nano-network, and fused silica/quartz beads. A coverglass for a satellite solar panel includes such a composition. A method for producing the composition includes the steps of mixing an encapsulating resin, a conductive nano-network, and fused silica/quartz beads at a specific ratio, so that the ratio maximizes the inherent properties; and tape casting the mixture to create the composition.
