2、ion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () 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 nonmetallic

3、 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 with i

4、ts 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 measurem

9、ents.4.2 This test method is applicable to nonmetallic specimenshaving a 60 specular gloss value greater than 70 in accordancewith Test Method D523.4.3 Both 60 and 20 specular gloss depend upon therefractive index of the material being measured. Because 20gloss changes much more rapidly with index t

10、han 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 test metho

11、d 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 irregularities

12、 in the reflectingsurface that affect the distribution of flux reflected around thespecular angle. The procedures specified in Test Method D523are not designed to measure reflected-flux scattering character-istics of high-gloss finishes, particularly where specimenshaving different surface refractiv

13、e indexes are being compared.5.3 In this test method, values for reflection haze areobtained from two measurements of specular gloss, one madewith a large receptor aperture and the other made with a smallreceptor aperture. The geometric conditions have been chosento permit the use of glossmeters tha

18、Specimens7.1 This test method does not cover preparation techniques.When a test requires the preparation of specimens from a liquidcoating, specify the techniques of specimen preparation.7.2 Select test specimens in accordance with PracticeD3964.7.2.1 To determine the maximum gloss obtainable from a

19、material, such as a paint or a varnish, use methods in PracticesD823 to produce a film of uniform thickness on a smooth,planar substrate.7.2.2 Use surfaces of good planarity, because surfacewarpage, waviness, or curvature may affect test results signifi-cantly.

However, 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 Method

22、D523; they are 93.6 for the 60 geometry and 89.2 for the 20geometry.NOTE 1Because of the difference in scale values for the twogeometries, the haze-free standard or a haze-free specimen of refractiveindex 1.527 will have a haze index H = 93.6 89.2 = 4.4.9. Procedure9.1 Select an area near the center
