This review focuses on advanced materials already used and suitable for application in (future) lunar extravehicular activity space suits. A historical and current literature/market survey is presented. Different functional layers of an astronaut garment are defined with emphasis on the external layers subjected to abrasive action of lunar regolith and degradation via exposure to space radiation/vacuum environment. Requirements are defined that would need to be fulfilled by these layers and suitable materials candidates are reviewed based on their key properties, including mechanical durability. Smart materials, combining additional functionalities, such as garment health monitoring, are also considered. The lead topic is the subject of an ongoing ESA‐funded research activity.

未来月球舱外活动太空服的先进材料

这篇评论的重点是已经使用并适合用于（未来）月球舱外活动太空服的先进材料。介绍了历史和当前的文献/市场调查。定义了宇航员服装的不同功能层，着重于外层，这些外层受到月球重石的磨蚀作用并通过暴露于空间辐射/真空环境而降解。定义了这些层需要满足的要求，并根据其关键特性（包括机械耐久性）对合适的候选材料进行了审查。还考虑了结合其他功能（例如服装健康监控）的智能材料。首要主题是正在进行的ESA资助的研究活动的主题。
