3、 deviations from a standard are generally dependent upon the colordiscrimination of the observer, on the lighting and surround in which the material is viewed, and onspecial considerations related to the design, manufacture, and practical usage of the colored materialor object. The tolerances, there

4、fore, may be influenced by economic, technical, psychological, andpractical requirements. In many circumstances, acceptability of color and gloss deviations from astandard may differ appreciably from the perceptibility of deviations such as on-tone fadingpreferences, large tolerances for luminance v

5、ariation, nongreen bias, or nonyellow bias. perceptibilityfor many reasons. With proper allowances, perceptibility data can be used as an aid to developpermissible tolerances. Finally, the sum of all these considerations should result in a specificationacceptable to both buyer and seller.1. Scope1.1

6、 This practice describes a procedure for establishing tolerances and evaluating the color and gloss of specimens with respectto specified standards. This practice is appropriate for nonfluorescent opaque specimens.1.2 This practice does not indicate the extent of tolerances, but gives guidance on ho

7、w they can be set. For product specification,the tolerances between specimens and the specified standard should be agreed upon between the purchaser and the seller.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof th

Summary of Practice4.1 This practice consists of recommendations for the selection of a standard, the necessary physical measurements to assessthe permanence of the standard to reproduce it when n

20、eeded, and to establish tolerances.4.2 Recommendations are given for the determination of the conformance of a specimen to preestablished color and glosstolerances by instrumental or visual means.5. Significance and Use5.1 Color specifications are centered around exact positions in color space. Corr

21、espondingly, gloss specifications are centeredaround an exact position on the gloss scale. Because it is difficult to achieve these exact positions repeatedly, it is necessary tospecify tolerances that are acceptable to both the buyer and the seller. This practice details the procedure for accomplis

22、hing thisgoal.6. Specimens6.1 The exact method of preparation of the specimen shall be agreed upon between the purchaser and the seller. However, forthe highest precision in instrumental measurements the specimens should be opaque, uniform in color, plane, and uniform intexture. The specimens should

23、 be relatively permanent, and capable of being cleaned. Preferred sizes of specimens for visualevaluation are given in Practice D1729, the specific size being governed by the use of the specimens.7. Procedure7.1 Selection and Specification of Color and Gloss Standard:7.1.1 Select a standard in accor

24、dance with Practice D3964 that is preferably the same type of material as the specimens to beevaluated for color or gloss, or both. Prepare, in sufficient quantity, secondary standards in accordance with Guide D5531 that arerepresentative of the desired color and gloss, in the permanent material. St

25、andards should have the same spectral characteristicsas the manufactured product. This is usually accomplished by use of the same colorant composition, incorporated in the samemanner into the same material. The standard should have the same texture as the manufactured product.7.1.1.1 In order to obt

26、ain a permanent record, use Practice E805 and either Test Method E1331 or Test Method E1349 tocorrectly identify the instrumental measurement method. Measure the color in accordance with Practices E1164 and E805. Reportthe color as described in Practice E308. Do this even if the standard is textured

27、. (If the standard is textured, note the textureorientation during measurement.) The variability of the measurements due to texture may be reduced by following therecommendations outlined in Practice E1345.7.1.1.2 Visual Color AssessmentUse Guide E1499 to select an observer for the assessment. Asses

28、s and specify the color interms of a color system described in Practices D1535, E1360, or E1541.7.1.1.3 Measure the gloss in accordance with Test Method D523, or evaluate it in accordance with Test Method D4449.7.1.1.4 Employ photography for permanently recording the appearance of the surface textur

29、e (see Practice E312). WhilePractice D3134 does not deal with texture tolerances or specifications, it should be recognized that significant differences in surfacetexture between standard and test specimens significantly affect both color and gloss, whether examined visually or instrumentally.In the

30、 case of visual evaluation of the effect of color and gloss, differences can be minimized by strict adherence to recommendedilluminating and viewing geometry (see Practice D1729).3 The last approved version of this historical standard is referenced on www.astm.org.4 Available from CIE (International

31、 Commission on Illumination), http:/.D3134 1527.2 Selection and Specification of Color Tolerances:7.2.1 The purchaser and the seller shall agree on color tolerances with respect to a previously selected standard and on the colorscales in which they are expressed. Selection of the magnitude and direc

32、tion of color tolerances shall be based on carefulconsideration of all applicable factors. For example, tolerances may be selected on the basis of perceptibility of the magnitude ofcolor difference, rejection of or closer limits on certain directions of color difference, and costs of controlling the

33、 magnitude anddirection of color difference. Recommendations on color scales appear in CIE Publication No. CIE S 014-4/E2007Publication 015and Practice E308.7.2.1.1 Express color differences between the specimen and the standard in terms of a set of three independent parameters. TheCIE 1976 L*a*b* (

34、CIELAB) approximately uniform color space and color difference equations have been recommended for useby the International Commission on Illumination (CIE). See Practice D2244 and Practice E308. While this color metric (CIELAB)is convenient for expressing color differences, it must be understood tha

35、t a given calculated color difference in one region of colorspace may not represent the same visual difference in other regions of color space.7.2.2 Gloss differences can affect instrumental measurement of color differences. Large gloss differences between visuallyidentical colors can cause their co

36、lor measurements to exhibit larger color differences than in fact exist. When using historical datato establish color tolerances, exercise care to limit the specimens to those that have quite similar gloss values. When establishinggloss tolerances, be aware that changes in gloss values may have an e

37、ffect upon color measurements.7.2.3 When color difference formulae are used in practice, it is often desirable to identify the components of color difference,in terms of correlates of lightness, hue, and perceived chroma (saturation). It is also desirable to express color specifications interms of s

38、uch correlates. The CIE terminology appropriate to this usage is CIE 1976 lightness, CIE 1976 hue-angle, hab, and CIE1976 chroma, C*ab. Refer to Practice D2244 and Practice E308 for equations and definitions. The CIELAB 1976 hue-angle andchroma are illustrated in Fig. 1.7.2.4 The CIELAB opponent-col

39、or red-green coordinate a*, and the yellow-blue coordinate b* are defined in Practice D2244and Practice E308.7.2.5 Graphical Interpretation of Historical Data:7.2.5.1 Color tolerances can be determined from a graphical interpretation of historical data (batches accepted, rejected, orconsidered borde

40、rline). Fig. 2 (a) and Fig. 3(b) show plots of specimens rated by multiple observers with respect to how well theymatch a standard, along with figures defining the tolerances. To illustrate the principle recommended: (1) rate a number ofspecimens for acceptability, (2) plot them, and (3) prepare to

41、draw the tolerance figure dictated by the data.7.2.5.2 In such cases it is customary to plot the hue angle of the standard by drawing a line from the origin (0, 0) through thestandard color on the a*b* plot. This line of constant hue becomes the major axis. Similarly, a line perpendicular to thecons

42、tant-hue line and passing through the standard color is a line of constant chroma (or saturation) and becomes the minor axisof the ellipse, if the data plot indicates the ellipse should be symmetrical around the standard color. These lines assist in drawingthe tolerance ellipse, Fig. 2(a).NOTE 1Hue

43、angle is measured in degrees starting with hab = 0 in the + a* (red) direction and increasing counterclockwise. Chroma is measured asthe length of the line from the neutral point (a* = b* = 0) to the sample point. Sample Point 2 has a larger value of hab than Point 1 and therefore isyellower in hue.

44、 Point 2 also has a smaller value of Cab* than Point 1 and is therefore lower in chroma or duller.NOTE 2Original source is Billmeyer, F. W., Jr., and Saltzman, M., Principles of Color Technology, 2nd ed., John Wiley and Sons, New York, NY,1981. (Reprinted by permission of John Wiley perhaps it will

45、be an ovoid instead of an ellipse; its major axis may deviate from the direction of constant hue; andthe standard color may be far from its center. Frequently when it is necessary to set color tolerances, the amount of historicalaccept-reject data will be too modest for this purpose. It is therefore

46、 necessary to monitor tolerances, once set, to ensure that theyappropriately address the color quality control requirement.7.2.9 When tolerance standards are prepared to illustrate the color in the hue, lightness, and saturation or chroma attributes ofcolor space and to allow visual interpretation o

47、f the conformity of color, inspection should be under specified light sourcesfollowing the recommendations in Practice D1729. Gonioapparent coatings or materials require special methodologies for viewingand measurement.7.3 Selection and Specification of Gloss Tolerances:7.3.1 The gloss tolerances ar

48、ound the gloss of the standard may be expressed in gloss units (See Test Method D523) or as apercent.7.3.2 With few exceptions, the visual gloss tolerance will be symmetrical around the nominal value of the standard. It will benecessary to determine experimentally the instrumental readings that corr
