21、ractice.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 significant for many applications.This practice is intended to induce property changes associatedwith end-use con

22、ditions, 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 atmospheric pollution, biologicalattack, and saltwater exposure.4.2 CautionsVariation in results may be expected

23、 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 thespecific operating conditions used. Refer to Practice G 151 fordetailed information on the caveats applicabl

24、e to use of resultsobtained according to this practice.NOTE 3Additional 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 G 141.TABLE 1 Test Cycles Commonly Used for

29、peratures apply during the light-only portion of the cycle. The equilibrium black panel temperature is obtained without aspray period. For light intervals less than 30 min, the black panel temperature might not reach equilibrium.CTypical uses do not imply that results from exposures of these materia

This cycle may not ade

31、quately simulate the effects of outdoor exposure.D 5031 01 (2006)24.2.1 The spectral power distribution of light from anenclosed carbon arc is significantly different from that pro-duced in light and water exposure devices using other carbon-arc configurations or other light sources. The type and ra

32、te 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 laboratory lightsources.4.2.2 Interlaboratory comparisons are valid only when alllaboratories use the same type of carbon arc, filters,

33、 andexposure conditions.4.3 Reproducibility of test results between laboratories hasbeen shown to be good when the stability of materials isevaluated in terms of performance ranking compared to othermaterials or to a control.4,5Therefore, exposure of a similarmaterial of known performance (a control

34、) 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 evaluation of results.4.4 Test results will depend upon the care that is taken tooperate the equipment according to Practice G 153. Sig

35、nificantfactors include regulation of line voltage, freedom from salt orother deposits from water, temperature and humidity control,and conditions of the electrodes.4.5 All references to exposures in accordance with thispractice must include a complete description of the test cycleused.5. Apparatus5

36、.1 Use enclosed carbon-arc apparatus that conforms to therequirements defined in Practices G 151 and G 153.5.2 Unless otherwise specified, the spectral power distribu-tion of the enclosed carbon arc shall conform to the require-ments in Practice G 153 for the enclosed carbon arc.6. Hazards6.1 Warnin

37、gIn addition to other precautions, never lookdirectly at the carbon arc because UV radiation can damage theeye. Most carbon-arc machines are equipped with door safetyswitches, but users of old equipment must be certain to turn offthe power to the carbon arc before opening the test-chamberdoor.6.2 Th

38、e 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 attempting tochange the carbon rods.6.3 Carbon residue and ash are known respiratory irritants.Wear an appropriate high-efficiency dust

39、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 Specimens7.1 Apply the coating to flat (plane) panels with the sub-strate, method of preparation, method of application, coatingsyste

40、m, film thickness, and method of drying consistent withthe anticipated end use, or as mutually agreed upon betweenthe producer and user.7.2 Panel specifications and methods of preparation includebut are not limited to Practices D 609 or D 1730, or Specifi-cation D 358. Select panel sizes suitable fo

41、r use with theexposure apparatus.7.3 Coat test panels in accordance with Practices D 823,then measure the film thickness in accordance with an appro-priate procedure selected from Test Methods D 1005, D 1186,or D 1400. Nondestructive methods are preferred becausepanels so measured need not be repair

42、ed.7.4 Prior to exposing coated panels in the apparatus, condi-tion them at 23 6 2C (73 6 3F) and 50 6 5 % relativehumidity for one of the following periods in accordance withthe type of coating:Baked coatings 24 hRadiation-cured coatings 24 hAll other coatings 7 days7.4.1 Other procedures for prepa

43、ration 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 covered.Do not use this covered area of the specimen as part of the testarea.7.6 Unless otherwise specified, expose

44、at least three repli-cate specimens of each test and control material.7.7 Follow the procedures described in Practice G 147 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

45、 for the purpose ofshowing on one panel the effects of various exposure times.Misleading results may be obtained by this method, since themasked portion of the specimen is still exposed to temperatureand humidity cycles that in many cases will affect results.7.9 Retain a supply of unexposed file spe

46、cimens of allmaterials evaluated.7.9.1 When destructive tests are run, it is recommended thata sufficient number of file specimens be retained so that theproperty of interest can be determined on unexposed filespecimens each time exposed materials are evaluated.NOTE 4Since the stability of the file

47、specimen may also be timedependent, users are cautioned that over prolonged exposure periods, orwhere small differences in the order of acceptable limits are anticipated,comparison of exposed specimens with the file specimen may not be valid.Nondestructive instrumental measurements are recommended w

48、heneverpossible.7.10 Specimens should not ordinarily be removed from theexposure apparatus for more than 24 h, then returned foradditional tests, since this does not produce the same results onall materials as tests run without this type of interruption. Whenspecimens are removed from the exposure a

49、pparatus for 24 h ormore, then returned for additional exposure, report the elapsedtime as noted under Section 10.4Fischer, R., “Results of Round-Robin Studies of Light- and Water-ExposureStandard Practices,” Accelerated and Outdoor Durability Testing of OrganicMaterials, ASTM STP 1202, ASTM, 1993.5Ketola, W., and Fischer, R., “Characterization and Use of Reference MaterialsinAccelerated Durability Tests,” VAMAS Technical Report No. 30, NIST, June 1997.D 5031 01 (2006)38.
