1、Designation: D 4039 93 (Reapproved 2004)Standard Test Method forReflection Haze of High-Gloss Surfaces1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4039; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last rev

2、ision. 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 describes a procedure for using twospecular gloss measurements to obtain a haze index forhigh-gloss nonmetal

3、lic specimens (1-4).2It is particularlyuseful for evaluating the haze in clear finishes on nonglossysubstrates, and the haze in reflected images produced by thesurfaces of opaque glossy pigmented finishes.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated wit

4、h 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.

Summary of Test Method4.1 Measurements of 60 and 20 specular gloss are madeon a specimen. The haze index is computed as the differencebetween the two meas

9、urements.4.2 This test method is applicable to nonmetallic specimenshaving a 60 specular gloss value greater than 70 in accor-dance with Test Method D 523.4.3 Both 60 and 20 specular gloss depend upon therefractive index of the material being measured. Because 20gloss changes much more rapidly with

10、index than 60 gloss,the reflection haze value of a specimen also depends on theindex of refraction of the material. To establish a correction forthe effect of refractive index would require its measurement foreach material, which is inconvenient. Comparisons of reflec-tion haze evaluated by this tes

11、t method are therefore limited tospecimens of essentially the same refractive index.5. Significance and Use5.1 Measured gloss values of specimens depend on theangle of illumination, refractive index of the material, and thegeometric distribution of the reflected light.5.2 Haze is produced by irregul

12、arities in the reflectingsurface that affect the distribution of flux reflected around thespecular angle. The procedures specified in Test Method D 523are not designed to measure reflected-flux scattering character-istics of high-gloss finishes, particularly where specimenshaving different surface r

13、efractive indexes are being compared.A better index of scattering can be obtained by making twospecular reflectance measurements, that is, the use of tworeceptor apertures of different size.5.3 In this test method, values for reflection haze areobtained from two measurements of specular gloss, one m

14、adewith a large receptor aperture and the other made with a smallreceptor aperture. The geometric conditions have been chosen1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D01 on Paintand Related Coatings, Materials, and Applications and is the direct responsibility ofSubcommittee D01

Preparation and Selection of Test Specimens7.1 This test method does not cover preparation techniques.When a test requires the preparation

19、 of specimens from a liquidcoating, specify the techniques of specimen preparation.7.2 Select test specimens in accordance with PracticeD 3964.7.2.1 To determine the maximum gloss obtainable from amaterial, such as a paint or a varnish, use methods in PracticesD 823 to produce a film of uniform thic

20、kness on a smooth,planar substrate.7.2.2 Use surfaces of good planarity, because surfacewarpage, waviness, or curvature may affect test results signifi-cantly. The directions of brush marks or similar texture effectsshould be parallel to the plane of the axis of the two beams.8. Calibration and Stan

21、dardization8.1 Calibrate the glossmeters with primary and secondaryworking standards in accordance with the procedures given inTest Method D 523.8.2 The gloss scales in Test Method D 523 are defined byadopting the scale value of 100 for polished black glass with arefractive index of 1.567. However,

22、the polished black glassstandards used in this test method usually have a lowerrefractive index (approximately 1.527). The appropriate scalevalues of such standards have been calculated in Test MethodD 523; they are 93.6 for the 60 geometry and 89.2 for the 20geometry.NOTE 1Because of the difference

23、 in scale values for the two geom-etries, the haze-free standard or a haze-free specimen of refractive index1.527 will have a haze index H = 93.6 89.2 = 4.4.9. Procedure9.1 Select an area near the center of the test specimen anddetermine the 60 specular gloss.9.2 Determine the 20 specular gloss on t

24、he same area of thespecimen.10. Calculation10.1 Compute the haze index, H, as follows:H 5 G602 G20(1)where:G60= value of 60 specular gloss andG20= value of 20 specular gloss.11.

26、re in which six laboratories conducted single determinationson eight high-gloss coatings differing in visually perceivedreflection haze, the within-laboratory standard deviation forhaze index values was found to be 2.5.12.2 Based on these standard deviations, the followingcriteria should be used for

27、 judging the acceptability of singledeterminations at the 95 % confidence level.12.2.1 RepeatabilityTwo results obtained by a singleoperator should be considered suspect if they differ by morethan 2 units of haze index.12.2.2 ReproducibilityTwo results obtained by operatorsin different laboratories
