Satellite designer needs outgassing data for Iridite 7p

2004

I am planning to use Iridite 7p per MIL-C-5541 [affil link] to coat my copper waveguide. The issue is that those waveguides have to go in a thermal vacuum chamber so the outgassing of the coating must be low.

Does anyone know if that coating has already been used for a space application or/and where I could find some outgassing data (I went to the NASA website http://outgassing.nasa.gov but nothing is there).

Best regards,
