Therefore, all references to the use of this practicemust be accompanied by a report prepared in accordance withSection 9 that describes the specific operating conditions used.Refer to Practice G151 for detailed information on the caveatsapplicable to use

18、en laboratories hasbeen shown to be good when the stability of materials isevaluated in terms of performance ranking compared to othermaterials or to a control.6,7Therefore, exposure of a similarmaterial of known performance (a control) at the same time asthe test materials is strongly recommended.

19、It is preferable thatthe number of specimens of the control material be the same asthat used for test materials. It is recommended that at leastthree replicates of each material be exposed to allow forstatistical evaluation of results.4.4 Test results will depend upon the care that is taken tooperat

20、e the equipment in accordance with Practice G155.Significant factors include regulation of line voltage, freedomfrom salts or other deposits from water, temperature andhumidity control, and condition and age of the lamp and filters.5. Apparatus5.1 Use xenon-arc apparatus that conform to the require-

21、ments defined in Practices G151 and G155.5.2 Unless otherwise specified, the spectral power distribu-tion (SPD) of the xenon lamp shall conform to the require-ments of Table 1 in Practice G155 for a xenon lamp withdaylight filters.6. Test Specimen6.1 The size and shape of specimens to be exposed wil

22、l bedetermined by the specifications of the particular test methodused to evaluate the effects of the exposure on the specimens;the test method shall be determined by the parties concerned.Where practical, it is recommended that specimens be sized tofit specimen holders and racks supplied with the e

23、xposureapparatus. Unless supplied with a specific backing as anintegral part of the test, specimens shall be mounted so thatonly the minimum specimen area required for support by theholder shall be covered. This unexposed surface must not beused as part of the test area. In cases where it is necessa

24、ry tosupport flexible specimens during exposure, attach the flexiblespecimens to a thin supporting panel.NOTE 3For supporting flexible specimens, aluminum panels that are0.025 in. (0.64 mm) thick have been found to be acceptable for manyapplications.6.2 Unless otherwise specified, expose at least th

25、ree repli-cate specimens of each test material and of the control material,if used.6.3 Retain a supply of unexposed file specimens of allmaterials evaluated.6.3.1 For destructive tests, it is preferred to retain unex-posed file specimens. When this practice is followed, ensurethat sufficient file sp

26、ecimens are retained so that the property ofinterest can be measured on the file specimens for all plannedevaluations of the exposed materials.NOTE 4Since it is possible that the stability of the file specimen is alsotime-dependent, users are cautioned that over prolonged exposure periods,or where s

27、mall differences in the order of acceptable limits are anticipated,it is possible that comparison of exposed specimens with the file specimenis invalid. The stored initial measurements of the file specimens arerecommended wherever possible.6.4 Follow the procedures described in Practice G147 foriden

28、tification and conditioning and handling of test specimens,control, and reference materials prior to, during, and afterexposure.6.5 Do not mask the face of a specimen for the purpose ofshowing on one panel the effects of various exposure times.Misleading results are possible using this method, since

29、 themasked portion of the specimen is still exposed to temperatureand humidity cycles that in many cases will affect results.6.6 Since it is possible that the thickness of a specimen willmarkedly affect the results, thickness of test and controlspecimens shall be within 610 % of the nominal dimensio

30、ns.NOTE 5The thickness of a specimen is especially important whenmechanical properties are being investigated.7. Procedure7.1 If performance comparisons are not being made be-tween the test materials themselves, it is recommended that acontrol material be exposed simultaneously with experimentalmate

31、rials for determination of relative performance. All con-cerned parties must agree on the control material used.7.2 Practice G155 lists a number of exposure cycles that areused for xenon-arc exposures of nonmetallic materials. Table 1lists some of these cycles. It is possible to use any exposurecond

32、itions as long as the exact conditions are detailed in thereport. The exposure cycles listed in the table are not neces-sarily preferred and no recommendation is implied. Thesecycles are provided for reference only. Obtain mutual agree-ment among all concerned parties for the specific exposurecycle

Each setpoint and its tolerances found in Table 1represent an operational control point for equilibrium condi-tions at a single location in the cabinet that has the potential notto represent the uniformity of those conditions throughout thecabinet.NOTE 6Spray, condensation, and immersion are d

If the actual operating conditions do not agree with the machine settings after the equipment has stabilized,discontinue the test and correct the cause of the disagreement before continuing.DSet points and operationa

48、l fluctuations are listed in separate columns in Table 1. They are sometimes listed as set point operational fluctuation. The set point is thetarget condition for the sensor used at the operational control point as programmed by the user. Operational fluctuations are deviations from the indicated se

49、t point at thecontrol point indicated by the readout of the calibrated control sensor during equilibrium operation and do not include measurement uncertainty. At the operational controlpoint, the operational fluctuation can exceed no more than the listed value at equilibrium. Therefore, when a standard calls for a particular set point, the user programsthat exact number. The operational fluctuations specified with the set point do not imply that the user is allowed to
