Significance and Use5.1 The most direct and accessible methods for obtaining the color coordinates of object colors are by instrumental measurementusing spectrophotometers or colorimeters with either hemispherical or bidirectional optical measuring systems. T
16、his test methodprovides procedures for such measurement by reflectance spectrophotometry using a hemispherical optical measuring system.5.2 This test method is especially suitable for measurement of the following types of specimens for the indicated uses (GuideE179 and Practice E805):5.2.1 All types
17、 of object-color specimens to obtain data for use in computer colorant formulation.5.2.2 Object-color specimens for color assessment.5.2.2.1 For the measurement of plane-surface high-gloss specimens, the specular component should generally be excludedduring the measurement.5.2.2.2 For the measuremen
18、t of plane-surface intermediate-gloss specimens and of textured-surface specimens, includingtextiles, where the first-surface reflection component may be distributed over a wide range of angles, measurement may be madewith the specular component included, but the resulting color coordinates may not
19、correlate best with visual judgments of the color.The use of bidirectional geometry, such as 45/0 or 0/45, may lead to better correlations.5.2.2.3 For the measurement of plane-surface, low-gloss (matte) specimens, the specular component may either be excluded orincluded, as no significant difference
20、 in the results should be apparent.5.2.3 Specimens with bare metal surfaces for color assessment. For this application, the specular component should generallybe included during the measurement.5.3 This test method is not recommended for measurement of the following types of specimens, for which the
21、 use ofbidirectional measurement geometry (0/45 or 45/0) is preferable (Guide E179):5.3.1 Object-color specimens of intermediate gloss,5.3.2 Retroreflective specimens, and5.3.3 Fluorescent specimens (Practice E991).5.3.3.1 When there is doubt as to whether the specular component of reflection should
22、 be included or excluded, bothmeasurements should be made, and the results correlated with visual judgments. Thereafter, the method with higher visualcorrelation should be utilized.5.3.3.2 When measurements of two specimens whose gloss, or texture, are substantially different from each other, are to
23、 beutilized in a color-difference comparison, generally the specular component should be included in each measurement. This has theeffect of including in both measurements all the first surface reflections whether diffuse or specular. These first surface reflectionsare subtracted from each other in
24、the color-difference equation, and differences in the body color remain, which is what is usuallysought.6. Apparatus6.1 Spectrophotometer or spectrocolorimeter, designed for the measurement of color coordinates of reflecting specimens by useof integrating-sphere geometry.6.2 Calibration standards, e
25、ither supplied by the instrument manufacturer or obtained separately, as follows (Practice E1164,Standardization and Material Standards):6.2.1 White standard, of hemispherical reflectance factor (mandatory). (A standard of bidirectional reflectance factor is notsatisfactory and should not be used.)6
26、.2.2 Calibration standards, for (1) setting or verifying zero on the photometric scale; (2) verifying the wavelength scale; and(3) evaluating stray light (optional).6.2.3 Verification standards, (recommended) (Practice E1164, Standardization and Material Standards).7. Specimen Selection7.1 For highe
27、st precision and accuracy, select specimens with the following properties:7.1.1 High material uniformity and freedom from blemishes in the area to be measured,7.1.2 Opaque specimens that have at least one plane surface, and7.1.3 Translucent specimens that have two essentially plane and parallel surf
28、aces and that have a standard thickness, when oneis specified (Practice E1164, Test Specimens).8. Calibration and Verification8.1 Set the instrument for inclusion or exclusion of the specular component of reflection; set the same as will be used in 8.4(if carried out) or 9.1.8.2 Calibrate or verify
29、the calibration of the following (Practice E1164, Standardization and Material Standards):8.2.1 Zero setting of the reflectance scale (mandatory),8.2.2 Wavelength scale (recommended), andE1331 1528.2.3 Stray-light level (optional).8.3 Calibrate the full-scale value of the reflectance scale of the in
30、strument by use of the white reflectance standard (mandatory).Follow the instrument manufacturers instructions.8.4 Verify the accuracy of the instrumental data by measurement of a series of verification standards (recommended) (PracticeE1164, Standardization and Material Standards). Select the appro
31、priate color scales, observer, and illuminant for the computationof color coordinates before measurement.NOTE 1If the verification standards require a different selection of including or excluding the specular component than does 9.1, select the appropriatecondition for measurement of the verificati
32、on standards in 8.1, complete 8.4; select the correct setting for specimen measurement (9.1), repeat 8.3, andproceed to 9.2.9. Procedure9.1 Select inclusion or exclusion of the specular component of reflection (5.2).9.2 When required, select the color scales, observer, and illuminant for the computa
33、tion of color coordinates (see Practice E308,Procedure).9.3 Select other options, such as wavelength range and interval, when required. Follow instrument manufacturers instructionsor specified procedures.9.4 If the specimen is translucent, select specified black or white backing material. See Practi
34、ce E1164, Test Specimens, forfurther instructions on measuring translucent specimens.9.5 Handle the specimen carefully; avoid touching the area to be measured. When necessary, clean the specimen by using anagreed procedure.9.6 Place the specimen, with backing material if required, against the reflec

Report11.1 Report the following information:11.1.1 Specimen description (Practice E1164, Report),11.1.2 Date of measurement,11.1.3 Instrument parameters selected in 9.1 9.4, and11.1.4 Measurement results, in the f
37、orm of tables of reflectance factor versus wavelength or color-scale values.12. Precision and Bias12.1 PrecisionThe interlaboratory study leading to the results expressed in this precision and bias statement was conductedby a Task Group in Subcommittee E12.93 on Precision and Bias during the period
38、July to September 2003. The results in 12.1.2and 12.1.4 were obtained by bootstrap procedures. The statistical confidence intervals computed using these procedures wereobtained from standard deviations obtained by resampling the variance distribution rather than by directly calculating the standardd

The instrument population consisted of six different instruments in one labora
41、tory. Each specimen wasmeasured ten times on each instrument with the specular component included. Color difference comparisons were made onlybetween measurements of each tile made on the same instrument. The underlying data are known as the 2003 SCAI data from theMunsell Color Science Laboratory.12
42、.1.2 RepeatabilityRepeatability conditions are defined as measurements made in the same laboratory using the same testmethod by the same operator using the same equipment in the shortest possible period of time using specimens taken from onelot of homogeneous material. Two test results obtained unde
43、r repeatability conditions should be considered suspect to a 95 %repeatability limit if their values differ by more than 0.08 unit, E*ab.12.1.3 Reproducibility SamplesThe Collaborative Testing ServicesServices Color and Color-Difference CollaborativeReference Program has surveyed the precision of co
44、lor and color-difference measurements by sending out pairs of painted chipsexhibiting small color differences on a quarterly basis since 1971. The specimens of these surveys consist of opaque matte paintcoated on white sealed paper stock and are distributed to the respondents from the same lot of ho
45、mogeneous material. Thespecimens are specifically designed to be insensitive to the specular conditions present in the instrument, and no attempt is madeto report the possible geometric conditions under which the measurements are made. Table 1 reports results from four specimensfrom these survey ove
46、r the two-year period from 2000 to 2002. Approximately 250 instruments are reported in each survey. Theinstrument population of one of these four surveys consisted of 55 different models from nine different commercial instrumentmanufacturers. The most frequently reported instrument model accounted f
47、or 24 % of the population of instruments. The top fourinstruments accounted for 47 % of the population, and there were 25 instruments that represented a singular entry of that modelin this population.12.1.4 ReproducibilityReproducibility conditions are defined as measurements made in different labor
48、atories using differentequipment using the same test method, each by a different operator using specimens taken from one lot of homogeneous material.Two test results made under reproducibility conditions should be considered suspect to a 95 % reproducibility limit if their valuesdiffer by more than
49、the values given in Table 1 under the column headed “95 % Reproducibility Limits.”12.2 BiasIt is not possible to determine the bias, if any, of this test method because no accepted reference values are availablefor the specimens tested.12.3 The precision statistics for this test method must not be treated as exact mathematical quantities that are applicable to allinstruments, uses, and materials. There will be times when differences occur that are greater than those which would be predictedby the interlaboratory study leading to these results. Sometimes thes
