1、Designation: D1535 14 (Reapproved 2018)Standard Practice forSpecifying Color by the Munsell System1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1535; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision

2、. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This practice provides a means of specifying

3、the colorsof objects in terms of the Munsell color order system, a systembased on the color-perception attributes hue, lightness, andchroma. The practice is limited to opaque objects, such aspainted surfaces viewed in daylight by an observer havingnormal color vision. This practice provides a simple

Provision is made for conversionof CIE data to Munsell notation.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, ass

20、rms Specific to This Standard:3.3.1 Munsell surface-color perception solid, na spatialrepresentation of colors in the form of a cylindrical coordinatesystem based on the three perceptual attributes: hue, lightnessand chroma.3.3.1.1 Discussion(1) This solid (see Fig. 2(2) forms thebasis of the Munsel

21、l notation in which Munsell hue corre-sponds to hue, Munsell value corresponds to lightness, andMunsell chroma corresponds to chroma. The central, verticalaxis dimension represents neutral colors, ranging from black atthe bottom, through a gradation of grays, to white at the top.The lightness of a c

22、olor perceived as chromatic (not gray) isrepresented by the distance above the base plane. Hue isrepresented by the angular position about this axis (seeDiscussion (2). Chroma is represented by the perpendiculardistance from the central axis. If the observer has normal colorvision, is adapted to day

23、light, and views the specimen illumi-nated by CIE source C or D65, against a medium gray to whitebackground, the Munsell value of the specimen correlates wellwith the observers perception of the lightness of the color.Under the same conditions, the Munsell hue correlates wellwith the observers perce

24、ption of hue and the Munsell chromawith the perception of chroma.3.3.1.2 Discussion(2) Although the original system pro-posed by Munsell was a left-handed coordinate system, thesystem is often represented as a right-handed system because itfacilitates comparison to the CIE chromaticity diagram, take

25、nto be right-handed.3.3.2 Munsell hue circle, na spatial representation of theMunsell hue sectors on a circle, where the angular spacingrepresents a uniform scaling of hue; see Fig. 2.4. Significance and Use4.1 This practice is used by artists, designers, scientists,engineers, and government regulat

26、ors, to specify an existing ordesired color. It is used in the natural sciences to record thecolors of specimens, or identify specimens, such as humancomplexion, flowers, foliage, soils, and minerals. It is used tospecify colors for commerce and for control of color-production processes, when instru

27、mental color measurement isnot economical. The Munsell system is widely used for colortolerancing, even when instrumentation is employed (seePractice D3134). It is common practice to have color chipsmade to illustrate an aim color and the just tolerable deviationsfrom that color in hue, value, and c

28、hroma, such a set of chipsbeing called a Color Tolerance Set. A color tolerance setFIG. 1 Designation Systems for Munsell HueD1535 14 (2018)2exhibits the aim color and color tolerances so that everyoneinvolved in the selection, production, and acceptance of thecolor can directly perceive the intent

29、of the specification,before bidding to supply the color or starting production. Acolor tolerance set may be measured to establish instrumentaltolerances. Without extensive experience, it may be impossibleto visualize the meaning of numbers resulting from colormeasurement, but by this practice, the n

30、umbers can be trans-lated to the Munsell color-order system, which is exemplifiedby colored chips for visual examination. This color-ordersystem is the basis of the ISCC-NBS Method of DesignatingColors and a Dictionary of Color Names, as well as theUniversal Color Language, which associates color na

If preparation is necessary, see other ASTM stan-dards covering the appropriate materials or agree amonginterested parties on what the procedure shall be.7. Munsell Notation by Visual Means7.1 Lighting and Viewing Condit

33、ions:7.1.1 Specimens must be examined by an observer withnormal color vision.7.1.2 For critical applications, use daylight illuminatingequipment as described in Practice D1729.7.1.3 If the lighting equipment described in Practice D1729is not available, natural daylight can be used to obtain notation

34、shaving accuracy adequate for many purposes.7.2 Procedure:7.2.1 When using daylight illuminating equipment, followthe lighting and viewing recommendations of Practice D1729.7.2.2 When determining the Munsell notation with naturaldaylight, select a window through which the sun is not shining.A north

35、window is usually used in the northern hemisphere,and a south window is usually used in the southern hemisphere.Place a working surface at the window so the light reaches thesurface from the observers side, chiefly from the sky, and atangles centering on 45 above the horizontal. Place a canopy ofbla

36、ck cloth above the working surface to prevent errors causedby the ceiling or other objects being reflected from the surfaceof the specimens, or by light other than daylight falling on thework surface. Place the specimen on a neutral medium gray towhite background, where it is uniformly illuminated b

37、y day-light. View the specimen along a direction just far enough fromthe normal to avoid reflection of your forehead. Although 45illumination and perpendicular viewing are recommended bythe CIE, converse conditions are equivalent if a black mattesurface is placed opposite the observer to minimize th

38、e amountof light reflected from the specimen surface.7.2.3 If both matte and glossy editions of the Munsell Bookof Color are available, use the one having gloss most like thespecimen. Select the two adjacent Munsell constant-hue chartsFIG. 2 Dimensions of the Surface-Color-Perception SolidD1535 14 (

39、2018)3or chips between which the hue of the specimen lies. Place oneon each side of the specimen. Cover the specimen and chartswith the gray masks so the specimen and one chip from eachchart can be seen. Move the masks from chip to chip to find thechips most like the specimen. The glossy chips are r

40、emovable.Remove them and place immediately adjacent to the specimen.Estimate, in the following order, the value, the chroma, and thehue, by interpolation or extrapolation of the notations on thechips, as described in 7.2.3.1 to 7.2.3.3. Interchange thepositions of the charts, repeat the estimations,

41、 and average theresults.7.2.3.1 ValueFind the chips between which the value ofthe specimen lies. Estimate the value of the specimen to thenearest tenth of the one-value-step interval between adjacentvalue levels and record it, for example, 4.2.7.2.3.2 ChromaMove the masks to present successivecolors

42、 of the same chroma and, by interpolation orextrapolation, determine the Munsell chroma. Pay chief atten-tion to the Munsell chips having values nearest that of thespecimen and secondary attention to those next nearest. Al-though all Munsell chips of the same Munsell chroma areintended to appear to

43、have the same perceptual chroma, aslightly different estimate of chroma may be obtained bycomparison with the chips of the next value. In such cases,average the estimated Munsell chromas. Note that there areusually two chroma steps between adjacent columns of a chart.Estimate chroma to the nearest f

44、ifth of the 2-chroma intervaland record it, for example, 6.4.7.2.3.3 HueEstimate the hue of the specimen by interpo-lation between the chips of the nearest Munsell value andchroma in the selected hue charts. Estimate to the nearest fifthof the 2.5-hue steps between adjacent hue charts and record it,

45、for example, 4.5R. (The tenth step of one hue sector is the zeroof the next. The 10 is used; the zero is not.) If the value andchroma of the specimen do not correspond closely to those ofany chip, repeat the interpolation of hue with the next closestpair of chips and record the average or estimate t

46、he hue asbeing closer to that of one or the other of the selected pairs ofchips.7.2.3.4 The Munsell notation for the hue H, the value V, andthe chroma C, is written in the form HV/C. Using the examplesgiven, the Munsell notation would be written 4.5R 4.2/6.4.8. Munsell Color Notation from CIE Measur
