Which consequence results when rapid sublimation occurs in spacecraft electronics?

A)Component overheating from increased resistance
B)Material embrittlement due to differential contraction
C)Dielectric failure due to outgassing products
D)Reduced thermal conductivity from phase changes

💡 Explanation

Outgassing worsens during sublimation, producing volatile organic compounds; therefore, dielectric failure in insulators occurs because released gases reduce the electrical breakdown voltage, rather than thermal or mechanical failures from expansion.
