8、eathering.4. Terminology4.1 Definitions:accelerated outdoor weathering, noutdoor weathering us-ing the sun as the source of irradiance, and where the rate ofdeterioration is accelerated by increasing one or more of theinfluencing parameters above a level obtained in the naturalenvironment.DISCUSSION

9、Examples of these types of exposures are found inPractice G90 and Practice G201.acceleration factor, nthe ratio of exposure time required toproduce a specified amount of change in a material by oneexposure test divided by the exposure time required toproduce the same change by another exposure test.

10、DISCUSSIONAcceleration factors must be used with great cautionbecause they vary between materials (including different formulationsof the same material) and are strongly dependent on the exposureconditions and variability of both the natural and laboratory acceleratedexposures.Acceleration factors m

11、ay also vary depending on the level ofmaterial property change used to determine the acceleration factor. Donot ratio irradiance in laboratory accelerated tests to irradiance inoutdoor exposures, or use equivalent radiant exposures to estimate timeto fail in outdoor exposures. These calculations ign
