Summary of Test Method3.1 The

6、test method consists of measuring and recording thehaze and light transmission of a test specimen, mounting thespecimen so that it forms part of the bottom tray (sand cradle),covering the specimen with abrading media, and subjecting thecradle to a specific number of oscillations. After exposure toth

7、e abrasion, the haze and light transmission are remeasured todetermine any change in these values.3.2 At the stroke velocity specified in this practice, theentire mass of sand shifts significantly within the sand cradlebecause of its inertia; therefore the relative motion betweensand and specimen at

8、 the interface is large.3.3 The thickness or height of the sand resting on top of thetest specimen remains relatively constant during the motion ofthe cradle. Therefore, the average pressure of the sand alsoremains constant, giving highly reproducible results over theentire surface of the test speci

9、men.3.4 The degree of abrasion is measured by the amount ofchange in luminous transmission and haze after exposure to thetest.4. Significance and Use4.1 Plastic materials, when used as transparencies, covers,or enclosures, are subject to wiping, cleaning, or other types ofrubbing actions that cause

10、abrasion. It is the intent of this testmethod to provide a means of estimating the resistance of suchmaterials to this type and degree of abrasion.5. Apparatus5.1 AbraderThe abrader consists of a specimen holder,sand cradle, drive mechanism, variable power supply andcounter. One such example is show

The specimen shall b
