LD 3-2005 Page iii Foreword This Standards Publication has been prepared by the Decorative Laminate Section of the National Electrical Manufacturers Association for use by manufacturers an

22、d fabricators of high-pressure decorative laminates (HPDL). The test methods and performance values presented have been related as closely as possible to end-use applications, and user needs have been considered throughout. The purpose of this Standards Publication is to provide standard test method

23、s and performance values for high-pressure decorative laminates. Standards Publication LD 3-2005 revises and supersedes LD 3-2000. The Decorative Laminate Section works closely with trade organizations and appropriate government agencies in the periodic review and revision of these standards. The Se

24、ctions testing laboratory at North Carolina State University has been instrumental over a period of years in developing new test methods and perfecting old test methods, and also in conducting round robins among producer laboratories to prove the reproducibility of test methods. These standards are

25、also periodically reviewed by the Decorative Laminate Section for any revisions necessary to keep them up to date with advancing technology. Proposed or recommended revisions should be submitted to: Vice President, Engineering Department National Electrical Manufacturers Association 1300 North 17th

26、Street, Suite 1847 Rosslyn, Virginia 22209 In this 2005 edition of the NEMA Standards Publication for High-Pressure Decorative Laminates, effort has been continued to relate the Standards more closely to the performance expected in their end-use applications. The type and thickness of the decorative

27、 laminate, the substrate, the adhesive, and the fabricating techniques employed have a definite bearing on the performance of the final product in service. Information on substrates, adhesives, fabrication, and installation has been updated and is found in Annex A. Information concerning care and cl

28、eaning of high-pressure decorative laminate (HPDL) is found in Annex B. Information pertaining to the perception of scratches is found in Annex C. Information about the NEMA wear resistance chart is found in Annex D. Where values are given in both metric and U. S. customary units, the metric units a

29、re to be regarded as the standard. Equipment drawings in this edition are designed with metric units. Existing equipment, built to U. S. customary units and in compliance with the 2000 edition of the NEMA LD 3 standard, remain acceptable for use. Copyright 2005 by the National Electrical Manufacture

The black coating should be such as to report as accurate as possible the black body temperature of the pane

38、l. b. All test parameters should be maintained as closely as possible to the set-point. c. The manufacturers recommendations for calibrations, maintenance, and filter changes should be adhered to stringently. d. All sample locations should be filled during the test cycle utilizing blanks as necessar

39、y in order to maintain correct air-flow through the test chamber. 3.3.6 Test Report The light resistance shall be reported as one of the following: a. No effectno change in color or surface finish. b. Slight effecta change in color or surface finish visible only at certain angles and directions. c.
