The air must be kept absolutely dry
if you have a closed system.
You need something included inside the container
to absorb any free moisture.
In the military they pump dry nitrogen
into closed cavities.

What is the coldest temp ?
The airs dew point must be kept below that temp.

I would use a pyrex like glass container specially built to
keep a vacuum.

Provide electrical isolation from the ground.

It seems everything I want to do
simply costs too much monies.

I would need to be at a university working
on a government funded project to
try out all my ideas.

Regards;
geoff
