Procedure for Measuring Color Retention5.1 Test Site Setup and Exposure

27、Duration Test Times:5.1.1 Samples shall be exposed at three test sites: TemperateNorthern represented by a site located in Louisville, KY orCleveland, OH; hot, humid represented by a site located inMiami, FL; and hot, dry represented by a site located inPhoenix, AZ. Additional test sites may be used

28、 as agreed uponby the buyer and the seller.5.1.2 All exposures shall be conducted at an angle of 45facing South and backed using unpainted plywood in accor-dance to Practices D1435 and G147.5.1.3 Remove test specimens for color measurement at 24month exposures. In some cases, 24 months may not besuf

29、ficient to distinguish material durability differences andlonger exposure periods may be necessary. Additional expo-sure times may be used as agreed upon by the buyer and theseller.5.2 Sampling and Specimen Preparation:5.2.1 Samples shall be representative of the product to beevaluated. Samples shal

30、l be taken either from commercialproducts or from laboratory samples. Laboratory samples shallbe produced in the same manner as the commercial products tobe evaluated.NOTE 3Production of laboratory samples in the same manner in-cludes use of the same method of forming the product. For example, if th

31、ecommercial product is extruded, the laboratory specimen shall be ex-truded; if the commercial product is injection molded, the laboratoryspecimen shall be injection molded, and so forth.5.2.2 Select a minimum of 4 specimens per sample per testsite to allow for 3 test specimens and 1 file specimen f

32、or eachsample evaluated.5.2.3 Specimens shall be a flat section and a minimum of 2by 334 in. (51 by 95 mm).5.2.4 Mark each specimen permanently to ensure retentionof identity during and after exposure testing.NOTE 4Use of a vibratool leaves a permanent mark that satisfies thiscriteria.5.3 Data Recor

33、d:5.3.1 Measured specimen color values shall be reported toone decimal place.5.3.2 Calculation of color units shall be reported to onedecimal place.5.4 Practice:5.4.1 Obtain test and file specimens in accordance to 5.2.The following procedure is used at each of the three weatheringlocations.5.4.2 Me

34、asure in replicate the original tristimulus X, Y, andZ values for the file specimen. Color is measured using spheregeometry (di:8), Illuminant C, 2 observer, and specularcomponent included in accordance with Practice E805. Calcu-late the Hunter L, a, and b units in accordance with theequations in th

35、e section on “Hunter L, a, and b Color Space andColor-Difference Equation” in Test Method D2244 using theaverage of the replicate measurements and record them in apermanent record.5.4.2.1 Use the L, a, and b values to determine the colorregion in accordance with 4.2. This color region is used for al

36、lsubsequent evaluation of color change of the weatheredsamples, and shall not be changed during the duration of theweathering study.5.4.2.2 The initial L, a, and b values determined from thefile specimens are used as the reference point for all measure-ments of color change of the weathered samples

37、during theduration of the weathering study.5.4.3 Expose the test specimens at the test sites in accor-dance with 5.1.1 and 5.1.2. Record in a permanent record thetest start date.5.4.4 Remove the test specimens at the exposure interval(s)in accordance with 5.1.3. Record in a permanent record thedate

38、the specimens are removed from the exposure test rack forcolor measurement.5.4.5 The exposed test specimens should shall be measuredfor color and evaluated for appearance. It is recommended thatcolor measurement and appearance evaluation be conducted atthe test site. Color measurement shall take pla

39、ce within 7 daysof specimen removal from the exposure test rack. It isrecommended that color measurement take place within 48 h ofthe specimens removal from the exposure test rack.NOTE 5Additional color development is known to occur for PVCproducts after removal from exposure to ultraviolet (UV) lig

40、ht. Thisartificial color change is referred to as Dark Time Yellowing. Colormeasurement within 48 h of removal is strongly recommended for PVCproducts.5.4.6 Wash the exposed test specimens in accordance withthe procedure in Annex A1.5.4.7 Inspect each exposed test specimen for appearanceand surface

41、condition. Record observations and inspection datein a permanent record.5.4.8 Measure and record the color of each test specimen inaccordance with 5.4.2 for each exposure time. Record in apermanent record the date the color of the specimen(s) ismeasured.D6864 1135.4.9 Calculate and record the change

42、 in Hunter L, a, and bunits for each specimen with reference to the specimens initialcolor as determined in 5.4.2.5.4.10 In cases where specimens are evaluated at exposuretimes other than 24 months, the specimens shall be returned tothe exposure test rack within 7 days for continuation of the test;i

43、t is recommended the samples be returned to the test rackswithin 48 h. Record in a permanent record the date thespecimens are returned to the exposure test rack.NOTE 6In case of dispute, the referee procedure shall be the use ofseparate specimens for each exposure time that can then be disposed afte

44、rcolor measurements are made.6. Performance Requirements6.1 The ellipsoid value for an individual specimen is calcu-lated using the measured color change and the appropriateellipsoid value equation found in 4.3 for the color regiondetermined in 5.4.2.1.6.2 Acceptable color retention is determined by

45、 the averageellipsoid value of the three test specimens at each test locationbeing less than or equal to 1.0. This value shall be calculatedfor each test site and exposure time. In addition, no individualspecimen shall have an ellipsoid value of greater than 1.4.6.3 Each specimen shall be of uniform

46、 appearance and voidof blemishes, streaks, and splotches. The specimen shall alsobe free of any visual surface or structural changes such aspeeling, chipping, cracking, flaking, and pitting when tested inaccordance to Section 5, Procedure for Measuring ColorRetention.ANNEX(Mandatory Information)A1.

47、WASHING WEATHERING SPECIMENSA1.1 Scope:A1.1.1 This procedure describes a practice for washingweathering specimens prior to instrumental color measure-ment. The procedure is intended to minimize any effects ofaltering the specimens surface in other than a predictablemanner.A1.2 Equipment:A1.2.1 Mild

48、Detergent, such as Joy, Palmolive, LiquidDawn, or equivalent.A1.2.2 Sponge or soft cloth.A1.3 Procedure:A1.3.1 Flush exposed specimen with water.A1.3.2 Gently wash the specimen with a dilute solution(0.05 % by weight in water, maximum concentration) of a milddetergent using a sponge or soft cloth.A1

49、.3.3 The washing action shall not be excessive and shallbe limited to a back-and-forth motion along the grain orpattern, if one exists.A1.3.4 Avoid circular motions.A1.3.5 Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove anymild detergent residue.A1.3.6 The washed specimen shall air dry and be free of anywater or moisture before conducting color measurements.APPENDIX(Nonmandat
