Atomic oxygen (AO) oxidizes and erodes several polymers used as thermal control films for satellites. The AO-irradiated surface is densely covered with microscopic protrusions. In this study, we focus the morphological change as unique modification. PE, PP and PS surfaces are observed by FE-SEM after AO-irradiation, and it is found that the AO fluence and chemical structures of these polymers are important factors for control the density of protrusions.
