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, a

19、nd water can be very significant for many applications.This practice is intended to induce property changes associatedwith end use conditions, including the effects of daylight,moisture, and heat. The exposure used in this practice is notintended to simulate the deterioration caused by localizedweat

20、her phenomena such as atmospheric pollution, biologicalattack, and salt water exposure.4.2 CautionVariation 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 Sec

21、tion 9 that describes thespecific operating conditions used. Refer to Practice G151 fordetailed information on the caveats applicable to use of resultsobtained according to this practice.NOTE 2Additional information on sources of variability and onstrategies for addressing variability in the design,

22、 execution and dataanalysis of laboratory accelerated exposure tests is found in Guide G141.4.2.1 The spectral power distribution of light from a xenon-arc is significantly different from that produced in light andwater exposure devices using carbon-arc or other light sources.The type and rate of de

23、gradation and the performance rankingsproduced by exposures to xenon-arcs can be much differentfrom those produced by exposures to other types of laboratorylight sources.4.2.2 Interlaboratory comparisons are valid only when alllaboratories use the same light source, filter type, and exposureconditio

24、ns.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.6,7Therefore, exposure of a similarmaterial of known performance (a control) at the same time as

25、the 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 G155. Significantfactors includ

26、e regulation of line voltage, freedom from salts orother deposits from water, temperature and humidity control,and condition and age of the lamp and filters.4.5 All references to exposures in accordance with thispractice must include a complete description of the test cycleused.5. Apparatus5.1 Use x

27、enon-arc apparatus that conforms to the require-ments defined in Practices G151 and G155.5.2 Unless otherwise specified, the spectral power distribu-tion of the xenon-arc shall conform to the requirements inPractice G155 for xenon-arc with daylight filters.6. Test Specimens6.1 Apply the coating to f

28、lat (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.6.2 Panel specifications and methods of preparation includebut are

29、 not limited to Practices D609, D1730, or SpecificationD358. Select panel sizes suitable for use with the exposureapparatus.6.3 Coat test panels in accordance with Practices D823 andthen measure the film thickness in accordance with an appro-priate procedure selected from Test Methods D1005, D1186,o

Nondestructive methods are preferred because panelsso measured need not be repaired.6.4 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 of coating:Baked coatings

(0.64 mm) which have been found to be acceptable for manyapplications.6.6 Unless otherwise specified, expose at least three repli-cate specimens of each test and control material.6.6.1 If performance comparisons are not being made be-tween the test materials themselves, it is

36、recommended that acontrol material be exposed simultaneously with experimentalmaterials for determination of relative performance. All con-cerned parties must agree on the control material, if any isused.6.7 Follow the procedures described in Practice G147 foridentification and conditioning and hand

37、ling of specimens oftest, control, and reference materials prior to, during, and afterexposure.6.8 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 method, since themasked portion of the specime

38、n is still exposed to temperatureand humidity cycles that in many cases will affect results.6.9 Retain a supply of unexposed file specimens of allmaterials evaluated.6.9.1 When destructive tests are run, it is recommended thata sufficient number of file specimens be retained so that theproperty of i

39、nterest can be determined on unexposed filespecimens each time exposed materials are evaluated.NOTE 4Since the stability of the file specimen may also be time-dependent, users are cautioned that over prolonged exposure periods, orwhere small differences in the order of acceptable limits are anticipa

40、ted,comparison of exposed specimens with the file specimen may not be valid.Nondestructive instrumental measurements are recommended wheneverpossible.6.10 Specimens should not be removed from the exposureapparatus for more than 24 h then returned for additional tests,since this may not produce the s

41、ame results on all materials astests run without this type of interruption. When specimens areremoved from the exposure apparatus for 24 h or more thenreturned for additional exposure, report the elapsed time asnoted under Section 9.7. Procedure7.1 Table 1 lists several exposure cycles that are used

42、 forxenon-arc exposures of paints and coatings. Obtain agreementbetween all concerned parties for the specific exposure cycleused. Additional intervals and methods of wetting, by spray,condensation, immersion, or combination of these, may besubstituted upon agreement among the concerned parties.NOTE

43、 5Each setpoint and its tolerances found in Table 1 represent anoperational control point for equilibrium conditions at a single location inthe cabinet that may not necessarily represent the uniformity of thoseconditions throughout the cabinet.NOTE 6Spray, condensation, and immersion are different k

44、inds ofmoisture exposures and frequently produce different results.7.1.1 Unless otherwise specified, maintain relative humidityat 50 6 10 % equilibrium during the light-only interval.7.2 If no other cycle is specified, use Cycle No. 1.7.3 Mount test specimens in the device following theplacement and

45、 specimen repositioning procedures described inPractice G155. It is recommended that all unused spaces in thespecimen exposure area be filled with blank metal panels thatare not highly reflective. The blanks used shall be resistant tocorrosion and shall not contaminate the specimens beingexposed.7.4

46、 If the irradiance uniformity does not meet the require-ments of Practice G151, reposition specimens in devicespreferably using the procedure described or, at a minimum, oneof the procedures described in Practice G155.Repositioning of specimens throughout the exposure periodcan minimize variations i

47、n test results for materials that areespecially sensitive to small variations in temperature,humidity, or irradiance.As such, repositioning is always a goodidea and is recommended even if a device meets the irradianceuniformity requirements in Practice G151.It is also recommended to randomly positio

48、n multiplespecimens of each material throughout the specimen rack ortray. By randomly positioning multiple replicate specimens ofone material, the effects of uniformity variations can bereduced.7.4.1 If specimen repositioning is used, and no other repo-sitioning schedule is specified, the following

49、procedure forspecimen repositioning is recommended:7.4.1.1 Once per week move all holders in the top half ofthe specimen exposure area to the bottom half, and move allholders in the bottom half of the exposure area to the top half.Do not reposition the specimens within the holder.NOTE 7In older devices, incident energy at the top and bottom of thespecimen rack is often only 70 % of that at the center. This conditionrequires that the procedures described in 7.4 be followed to ensureuniformity of radiant exposure.7.4.1.2 For devices with a planar exposure area, repositio
