The geometry of angles and apertures is chosen so thatthese procedures may be used as follows:4.1.1 The 60 geometry is used for intercomparing mostspec

9、imens and for determining when the 20 geometry may bemore applicable.4.1.2 The 20 geometry is advantageous for comparingspecimens having 60 gloss values higher than 70.4.1.3 The 85 geometry is used for comparing specimensfor sheen or near-grazing shininess. It is most frequentlyapplied when specimen

10、s have 60 gloss values lower than 10.5. Significance and Use5.1 Gloss is associated with the capacity of a surface toreflect more light in directions close to the specular than inothers. Measurements by this test method correlate with visualobservations of surface shininess made at roughly the corre

11、-sponding angles.5.1.1 Measured gloss ratings by this test method are ob-tained by comparing the specular reflectance from the speci-men to that from a black glass standard. Since specularreflectance depends also on the surface refractive index of thespecimen, the measured gloss ratings change as th

12、e surfacerefractive index changes. In obtaining the visual gloss ratings,however, it is customary to compare the specular reflectancesof two specimens having similar surface refractive indices.5.2 Other visual aspects of surface appearance, such asdistinctness of reflected images, reflection haze, a

13、nd texture,are frequently involved in the assessment of gloss (1), (6), (7).Test Method E430 includes techniques for the measurement of1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E12 on Colorand Appearance and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee E12.03 onGeometry.Current e

TestMethod D4039 provides an alternative procedure for measur-ing reflection haze.5.3 Little information about the relation of numerical-to-perceptual inter

17、vals of specular gloss has been published.However, in many applications the gloss scales of this testmethod have provided instrumental scaling of coated speci-mens that have agreed well with visual scaling (10).5.4 When specimens differing widely in perceived gloss orcolor, or both, are compared, no

18、nlinearity may be encounteredin the relationship between visual gloss difference ratings andinstrumental gloss reading differences.6. Apparatus6.1 Instrumental ComponentsThe apparatus shall consistof a light source furnishing an incident beam, means forlocating the surface of the specimen, and a rec

19、eptor located toreceive the required pyramid of rays reflected by the specimen.The receptor shall be a photosensitive device responding tovisible radiation.6.2 Geometric ConditionsThe axis of the incident beamshall be at one of the specified angles from the perpendicular tothe specimen surface. The

20、axis of the receptor shall be at themirror reflection of the axis of the incident beam. The axis ofthe incident beam and the axis of the receptor shall be within0.1 of the nominal value indicated by the geometry. With a flatpiece of polished black glass or other front-surface mirror inthe specimen p

21、osition, an image of the source shall be formedat the center of the receptor field stop (receptor window). Thelength of the illuminated area of the specimen shall be not morethan one third of the distance from the center of this area to thereceptor field stop. The dimensions and tolerance of the sou

22、rceand receptor shall be as indicated in Table 1. The angulardimensions of the receptor field stop are measured from thereceptor lens in a collimated-beam-type instrument, as illus-trated in Fig. 1, and from the test surface in a converging-beam-type instrument, as illustrated in Fig. 2. See Fig. 1

23、andFig. 2 for a generalized illustration of the dimensions. Thetolerances are chosen so that errors in the source and receptorapertures do not produce an error of more than one gloss unitat any point on the scale (5). The relative dimension is thecalculated dimension related to the 60 receptor (=1.0

24、000).6.2.1 The important geometric dimensions of any specular-gloss measurement are:6.2.1.1 Beam axis angle(s), usually 60, 20, or 85.6.2.1.2 Accepted angular divergences from principal rays(degree of spreading or diffusion of the reflected beam).NOTE 1The parallel-beam glossmeters possess the bette

25、r uniformityof principle-ray angle of reflection, but the converging-beam glossmeterspossess the better uniformity in extent of angular divergence accepted formeasurement.NOTE 2PolarizationAn evaluation of the impact of polarization ongloss measurement has been reported (11). The magnitude of the po

26、lar-ization error depends on the difference between the refractive indices ofspecimen and standard, the angle of incidence, and the degree ofpolarization. Because the specimen and standard are generally quitesimilar optically, measured gloss values are little affected by polarization.6.3 VignettingT

27、here shall be no vignetting of rays that liewithin the field angles specified in Table 1.6.4 Spectral ConditionsResults should not differ signifi-cantly from those obtained with a source-filter photocellcombination that is spectrally corrected to yield CIE luminousefficiency with CIE source C. Since

28、 specular reflection is, ingeneral, spectrally nonselective, spectral corrections need to beapplied only to highly chromatic, low-gloss specimens uponagreement of users of this test method.6.5 Measurement MechanismThe receptor-measurementmechanism shall give a numerical indication that is propor-tio

29、nal to the light flux passing the receptor field stop with61 % of full-scale reading.7. Reference Standards7.1 Primary StandardsHighly polished, plane, black glasswith a refractive index of 1.567 for the sodium D line shall beassigned a specular gloss value of 100 for each geometry. Thegloss value f

30、or glass of any other refractive index can becomputed from the Fresnel equation (5). For small differencesin refractive index, however, the gloss value is a linear functionof index, but the rate of change of gloss with index is differentfor each geometry. Each 0.001 increment in refractive indexprod

31、uces a change of 0.27, 0.16, and 0.016 in the gloss valueassigned to a polished standard for the 20, 60, and 85geometries, respectively. For example, glass of index 1.527would be assigned values of 89.2, 93.6, and 99.4, in order ofincreasing geometry.7.2 Working StandardsCeramic tile, depolished gro

33、andards.7.3 Store standards in a closed container when not in use.Keep them clean and away from any dirt that might scratch ormar their surfaces. Never place standards face down on asurface that may be dirty or abrasive. Always hold standards atthe side edges to avoid getting oil from the skin on th

34、e standardsurface. Clean the standards in warm water and a milddetergent solution brushing gently with a soft nylon brush.

Preparation and Selection of Test Specimens8.1 This test method does not cover preparation techniques.Whenev

38、er a test for gloss requires the preparation of testspecimens, use the procedures given in Practice D823.NOTE 3To determine the maximum gloss obtainable from a testmaterial, such as a paint or varnish, use Methods B or C of Practice D823.8.2 Select specimens in accordance with Practice D3964.9. Inst

39、rument Calibration9.1 Operate the glossmeter in accordance with the manufac-turers instructions.9.2 Verify the instrument zero by placing a black cavity inthe specified position. If the reading is not within 60.1 of zero,subtract it algebraically from subsequent readings or adjust theinstrument to r

40、ead zero.9.3 Calibrate the instrument at the start and completion ofevery period of glossmeter operation, and during the operationat sufficiently frequent intervals to assure that the instrumentresponse is practically constant. To calibrate, adjust the instru-ment to read correctly the gloss of a hi

41、ghly polished standard,properly positioned and oriented, and then read the gloss of aworking standard in the mid-gloss range. If the instrumentreading for the second standard does not agree within one unitof its assigned values, check cleanliness and repeat. If theinstrument reading for the second s

42、tandard still does not agreewithin one unit of its assigned value, repeat with anothermid-range standard. If the disparity is still more than one unit,do not use the instrument without readjustment, preferably bythe manufacturer.10. Procedure10.1 Position each specimen in turn beneath (or on) theglo

43、ssmeter. For specimens with brush marks or similar textureeffects, place them in such a way that the directions of themarks are parallel to the plane of the axes of the incident andreflected beams.10.2 Take at least three readings ona3by6-in. (75 by150-mm) area of the test specimen. If the range is

44、greater thantwo gloss units, take additional readings and calculate the meanafter discarding divergent results as in the section on Test forOutliers of Practice D3980. For larger specimens, take aproportionately greater number of readings. For non-idealsamples, (for example, weathered samples) the p
