15、428-2959, United States.7. Conditioning7.1 Precondition all test specimens by placing them incomplete darkness until their residual luminance has fallen to0.3 mcd/m2or less, tested utilizing the luminance meterspecified under 5.2. Remove them immediately before per-forming the tests. No ambient or s

16、tray light shall be present.8. Procedure8.1 Ambient ConditionsThe ambient temperature duringdarkness preconditioning of specimens, activation and lumi-nance testing shall be 25 6 3C (77 6 5F). The relativehumidity shall not exceed 60 %. All luminance testing shall beperformed in a room whose ambient

17、 light level is such that theluminance of a white diffuse reflectance standard is at least onedecade lower than the lowest test specimen luminance mea-surement to be recorded.8.2 Preparation of ApparatusThe luminance meter shallbe zeroed prior to every measurement, then checked immedi-ately after th

18、e measurement and the measurement shall berejected if the zero drifted by more than 5 % of the measuredvalue. The distance between the luminance meter and themeasured test specimen, and also the aperture angle of theluminance meter, shall be chosen in such a way that 30-mm(1516-in.) diameter of the

19、photoluminescent test specimen,which is of at least 45-mm (134-in.) diameter, is evaluated.8.3 ActivationActivate the photoluminescent markingspecimens with an unfiltered fluorescent cool white source oflight having a spectral power distribution similar to cool whiteF2 as described in Practice E 308

26、ee measurements on each of the samples were taken andfive laboratories participated.10.1.1 Samples A, D, and E were based on one type ofphotoluminescent pigment and Samples B, C, and F werebased on another type of photoluminescent pigment.10.1.2 The samples were activated using a CIE StandardIllumin
