Summary of Practice4.1 Specimens are exposed to repetitive cycles of light andmoisture under controlled environmental conditions.4.1.1 Moisture is u

21、sually produced by spraying the testspecimen with demineralized/deionized water or by condensa-tion of water vapor onto the specimen.4.2 The exposure condition may be varied by selection of:4.2.1 Lamp filter(s),4.2.2 The lamps irradiance level,4.2.3 The type of moisture exposure,4.2.4 The timing of

22、the light and moisture exposure,4.2.5 The temperature of light exposure,4.2.6 The temperature of moisture exposure, and4.2.7 The timing of a light/dark cycle.4.3 Comparison of results obtained from specimens exposedin the same model of apparatus should not be made unlessreproducibility has been esta

23、blished among devices for thematerial to be tested.4.4 Comparison of results obtained from specimens exposedin different models of apparatus should not be made unlesscorrelation has been established among devices for the materialto be tested.5. Significance and Use5.1 The use of this apparatus is in

24、tended to induce propertychanges associated with the end use conditions, including theeffects of sunlight, moisture, and heat. These exposures mayinclude a means to introduce moisture to the test specimen.Exposures are not intended to simulate the deterioration causedby localized weather phenomena,

25、such as atmospheric pollu-tion, biological attack, and saltwater exposure. Alternatively,the exposure may simulate the effects of sunlight throughwindow glass. Typically, these exposures would include mois-ture in the form of humidity.NOTE 2Caution: Refer to Practice G 151 for full cautionary guidan

Apparatus6.1 Laboratory Light SourceThe light source shall be oneor more quartz jacketed xenon arc lamps which emit radiationfrom below 270 nm in the ultraviolet through the visiblespectrum and into the infrared. In

29、order for xenon arcs tosimulate terrestrial daylight, filters must be used to removeshort wavelength UV radiation. Filters to reduce irradiance atwavelengths shorter than 310 nm must be used to simulatedaylight filtered through window glass. In addition, filters toremove infrared radiation may be us

31、 thickness offilters can have large effects on the amount of short wavelengthUV radiation transmitted.6.1.1.2 Aging of filters can result in changes in filtertransmission. The aging properties of filters can be influencedby the composition. Aging of filters can result in a significantreduction in th

The spectral irradiance for a xenon arcwith extended UV filters shall comply with the requirements ofTable 3.6.1.6 The actual irradiance at the testers specimen plane isa function of the number of xenon bu

If appropriate, report the irradiance andthe bandpass in which it was measured.6.2 Test ChamberThe design of the test chamber mayvary, but it should be constructed from corrosion resistantmaterial

The spectral power distribution data is for filters andxenon-burners within the aging recommendations of the device manufacturer. Theminimum and maximum data are at least the three sigma limits from the mean forall mea

For anyindividual spectral power distribution, the calculated percentage for the band-passes in Table 1 will sum to 100 %. For any individual xenon-lamp with

47、daylightfilters, the calculated percentage in each bandpass must fall within the minimumand maximum limits of Table 1. Test results can be expected to differ betweenexposures using xenon arc devices in which the spectral power distributions differby as much as that allowed by the tolerances. Contact

See Appendix X4 for more information comparing thesolar radiation data used in this standard with that for CIE 85 Table 4.FFor the benchmark solar spectrum, the UV irradiance (290 to 400 nm) is 9.8 %and the visible irradiance (400 to 800 nm) is 90.2 % expressed as a percentage ofthe total irradiance from 290 to 800 nm.
