ASTM D3210-1995(2002) Standard Test Method for Comparing Colors of Films from Water-Emulsion Floor Polishes《水乳化地板抛光剂膜的颜色比较标准试验方法》.pdf

1、Designation: D 3210 95 (Reapproved 2002)Standard Test Method forComparing Colors of Films from Water-Emulsion FloorPolishes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 3210; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision,

2、 the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers comparing colors of films (orsolids) deposited from the emulsified particles in

3、water emul-sion floor polishes. It is based upon luminous reflectancemeasurements made with tristimulus colorimeters such as theHunter Color Difference Meter.21.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standar

4、d does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Terminology3.1 Definition:3.1.1 whiteness indexa color measurement calculatedfrom the equation4WI 5 L 2 3b (1)where L and b are values measured directly with the ColorDifference Meter. L measures lightness, which

6、is 100 forperfectly white and zero for black; and b measures yellownesswhen plus, blueness when minus, and zero for neutral gray orwhite. Conversion factors for instruments reading in X, Y, Zunits are:L 5 10=Yb5 7.0 Y 2 0.847 Z!/=Y (2)4. Summary of Test Method4.1 Reflectance measurements are made on

7、 exaggerated orheavy dried polish films produced by saturating white filterpaper. The color measurement is expressed as whiteness index.5. Significance and Use5.1 Whiteness index obtained from reflectance measure-ments on exaggerated dried polish films on filter paper can beused as a measurement of

8、the color of such films.5.2 Whiteness index may be useful in predicting the poten-tial discoloring effect of polish films on flooring substrates.5.3 Whiteness index should be useful in specifications whencolor comparisons are made with a standard sample polish.6. Apparatus6.1 Tristimulus Colorimeter

9、, which gives reflectance read-ings which in turn are converted by calculations to L, a, and bcolor scale values, or these color scale values may be readdirectly from an instrument that automatically makes thecalculations. Other apparatus is satisfactory if equivalent re-sults are obtained.6.2 Filte

Saturate the paper withthe polish to be tested by dipping the paper into a shallow traycontaining the polish. Remo

16、ve the paper and allow it to dry ina suspended, vertical position for 24 h at ambient conditions ofapproximately 24C (75F) and 50 % relative humidity. Detachthe spring clamps and store the filter paper in a clean, drycontainer until reflectance readings are taken. Prepare duplicatepaper strips for e

Procedure9.1 Calibrate and operate the instrument in accordance withinstructions supplied by the manufacturer.9.2 Obtain reflectance readings (Y and Z tristimulus values)or color readings, L and b, on the samples prepared in 8.1, butuse five thicknesses of white filter pap

Precision and Bias12.1 Whiteness indices on duplicate samples should notvary more than two units

21、. Average variations should be lessthan one unit.12.2 BiasThis test method has no bias because the valueof the whiteness index is defined only in terms of this testmethod.13.
