Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice

3、covers the selection of test conditions from Practice G53 to be employed for exposure testing of polish-coatedpaint, related coatings, and materials. This practice covers the basic principles and operating procedures for using fluorescentultraviolet (UV) and condensation apparatus to simulate the de

No other units of measurement are included in this standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the r

6、atus (Fluorescent UV-Condensation Type) for Exposure ofNonmetallic Materials (Withdrawn 2000)33. Significance and Use3.1 Organic coatings on exterior exposure are subjected to attack by degrading elements of the weather, particularly ultravioletlight, oxygen, and water. This practice may be used for

7、 evaluating the protective behavior of polish film applied to a coating. Thispolish-coated coating is then exposed in an apparatus that produces ultraviolet radiation, temperature, temperature variation, andwater condensation for a given time period.3.2 No single light exposure apparatus, with or wi

8、thout water, can be specified as a direct simulation of natural exposure. Thispractice does not imply a specific correlation with outdoor exposure. It is, however, useful in screening the relative protectivequalityqualities of a polish within the test parameter.4. Apparatus and Material4.1 Fluoresce

15、 Barr Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States14.6 Polishing and Application Cloth shall be the same size and type for each sample tested. Separate cloths shall be used foreach polish and for the application step and buffing step. Materials such as washed cheeseclot

16、h, rumple cloth, flannel, cotton diapercloth, and nonwoven fabrics are suitable for this purpose. Felt or paper shall not be used.4.7 Samples of Polish, to be tested.5. Procedure5.1 Apply the test polish to one half of the prepared coated panel. If the polish is a commercially available product, fol

17、low thedirections on the container so far as is possible. When in doubt of the application method use the following:5.1.1 Apply the polish, allow it to dry to a haze, and then buff it with a soft cloth to a glossy shine. Equal volumes of test polishesshould be applied when comparing products. Avoid

18、excessively thin or heavy coats of polish. The temperature and relativehumidity should be measured so that the polish is applied within 70-80F21-27C and 20-80 % humidity. The precoated panelsshall have the same temperature as the surrounding area.5.2 Using a 60 glossmeter, take and record the gloss

19、readings of the polished and unpolished areas of the panel. Also recordthe gloss differential, which is the gloss reading of the polished half of the panel minus the unpolished half.After determining theseinitial gloss readings, place the Q panel in the QUV cabinet.5.3 Use the condensation mode firs

20、t, in which there is no light with moisture at 50C for 4 h.5.4 This is followed by 5 h of UV exposure, which is fluorescent UV lamp light and no moisture at 70C for 5 h. The glossreadings are taken as stated in 5.2 after 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 h of exposure to UV light.Also record a visual observation of

21、the exposed,unexposed, and unpolished parts of the Q panel after the 9 h bination of 5.3 and 5.4. These are 4four separate visualobservations of the painted panel.6. Report6.1 Report the manufacturer and model of the fluorescent UV/condensation apparatus, the manufacturers designation for thefluores

22、cent UV lamp, and the relative spectral energy distribution of the lamp.6.2 For each panel, report gloss readings for polished and unpolished areas and gloss differential. Then, for the same panel,report the same three readings after 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 h of UV exposure.7. Precision and Bias7.1 Precis
