22、 toWeathering Tests3. Terminology3.1 The definitions given in Terminology G113 are appli-cable to this practice.4. Significance and Use4.1 The ability of a paint or coating to resist deterioration ofits physical and optical properties caused by exposure to light,heat, and water can be very significa

23、nt for many applications.This practice is intended to induce property changes associatedwith end-use conditions, including the effects of sunlight,moisture, and heat. The exposure used in this practice is notintended to simulate the deterioration caused by localizedweather phenomena such as atmosphe

24、ric pollution, biologicalattack, and saltwater exposure.4.2 CautionsVariation in results may be expected whendifferent operating conditions are used. Therefore, no referenceto the use of this practice shall be made unless accompanied bya report prepared according to Section 10 that describes thespec

25、ific operating conditions used.

29、 for the applications listed.BUnless otherwise specified, operate the device so that the allowable deviations about the set points given in Table 1 are within the specified limits specified in thecorresponding entry. If the actual operating conditions do not agree with the machine settings after the

30、 equipment has stabilized, discontinue the test and correct the causeof the disagreement before continuing.CSet points and operational fluctuations are listed as set point operational fluctuation in Table 1. They are sometimes listed in separate columns. The set point is thetarget condition for the

31、sensor used at the operational control point as programmed by the user. Operational fluctuations are deviations from the indicated set point at thecontrol point indicated by the readout of the calibrated control sensor during equilibrium operation and do not include measurement uncertainty. At the o

32、perational 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 allow

33、ed to program a set point higher or lower than the exact setpoint specified.DUnless otherwise indicated, black panel temperatures apply during the light-only portion of the cycle. The equilibrium black panel temperature is obtained without a sprayperiod. For light intervals less than 30 min, the bla

34、ck panel temperature might not reach equilibrium.ETypical uses do not imply that results from exposures of these materials according to the cycle described will correlate to those from actual use conditions.FHistorical convention has established this as a very commonly used test cycle. This cycle ma

35、y not adequately simulate the effects of outdoor exposure.GUnless otherwise specified, water spray refers to water sprayed on the exposed surfaces of the test specimens.D5031/D5031M 13 (2018)2detailed information on the caveats applicable to use of resultsobtained according to this practice.NOTE 2Ad

36、ditional information on sources of variability and onstrategies for addressing variability in the design, execution, and dataanalysis of laboratory accelerated exposure tests is found in Guide G141.4.2.1 The spectral power distribution of light from anenclosed carbon arc is significantly different f

37、rom that pro-duced in light and water exposure devices using other carbon-arc configurations or other light sources. The type and rate ofdegradation and the performance rankings produced by expo-sures to enclosed carbon arcs can be much different from thoseproduced by exposures to other types of lab

38、oratory lightsources.4.2.2 Interlaboratory comparisons are valid only when alllaboratories use the same type of carbon arc, filters, andexposure conditions.4.3 Reproducibility of test results between laboratories hasbeen shown to be good when the stability of materials isevaluated in terms of perfor

39、mance ranking compared to othermaterials or to a control.4,5Therefore, exposure of a similarmaterial of known performance (a control) at the same time asthe test materials is strongly recommended. It is recommendedthat at least three replicates of each material be exposed toallow for statistical eva

40、luation of results.4.4 Test results will depend upon the care that is taken tooperate the equipment according to Practice G153. Significantfactors include regulation of line voltage, freedom from salt orother deposits from water, temperature and humidity control,and conditions of the electrodes.4.5

41、All references to exposures in accordance with thispractice must include a complete description of the test cycleused.5. Apparatus5.1 Use enclosed carbon-arc apparatus that conforms to therequirements defined in Practices G151 and G153.5.2 Unless otherwise specified, the spectral power distribu-tion

42、 of the enclosed carbon arc shall conform to the require-ments in Practice G153 for the enclosed carbon arc.6. Hazards6.1 WarningIn addition to other precautions, never lookdirectly at the carbon arc because UV radiation can damage theeye. Most carbon-arc machines are equipped with door safetyswitch

43、es, but users of old equipment must be certain to turn offthe power to the carbon arc before opening the test-chamberdoor.6.2 The burning carbon rods used in these devices becomevery hot during use. Make sure to allow at least 15 min for thearcs to cool after the device is turned off before attempti

44、ng tochange the carbon rods.6.3 Carbon residue and ash are known respiratory irritants.Wear an appropriate high-efficiency dust respirator, gloves, andsafety glasses when handling or changing carbon rods. Makesure to wash any carbon residue from hands or arms prior toeating or drinking.7. Test Speci

45、mens7.1 Apply the coating to flat (plane) panels with thesubstrate, method of preparation, method of application, coat-ing system, film thickness, and method of drying consistentwith the anticipated end use, or as mutually agreed uponbetween the producer and user.7.2 Panel specifications and methods

46、 of preparation includebut are not limited to Practices D609 or D1730, or Specifica-tion D358. Select panel sizes suitable for use with the exposureapparatus.7.3 Coat test panels in accordance with Practices D823, thenmeasure the film thickness in accordance with an appropriateprocedure selected fro

47、m Test Methods D1005, D1186,orD1400. Nondestructive methods are preferred because panelsso measured need not be repaired.7.4 Prior to exposing coated panels in the apparatus, condi-tion them at 23 6 2C 73 6 3F and 50 6 10 % relativehumidity for one of the following periods in accordance withthe type

48、 of coating:Baked coatings 24 hRadiation-cured coatings 24 hAll other coatings 7 days7.4.1 Other procedures for preparation of test specimensmay be used if agreed upon by all interested parties.7.5 Mount specimens in holders so that only the minimumspecimen area required for support by the holder is

49、 covered.Do not use this covered area of the specimen as part of the testarea.7.6 Unless otherwise specified, expose at least three repli-cate specimens of each test and control material.7.7 Follow the procedures described in Practice G147 foridentification and conditioning and handling of specimens oftest, control, and reference materials prior to, during, and afterexposure.7.8 Do not mask the face of a specimen for the purpose ofshowing on one panel the effects of various exposure times.Misleading results may be obtained by this meth
