18、1 October 2001 Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subjec

19、t for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)

20、 on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standa

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 3668:1976), which has been technically revised. Annex A and Annex B form an integral part

22、 of this International Standard. Annex C is for information only.

23、Standard is one of a series of standards dealing with the sampling and testing of paints, varnishes and related products. It specifies a method for the visual comparison of the colour of films of paints or related products against a standard (either a reference standard or a freshly prepared standar

24、d) using either natural daylight or artificial light sources in a standard booth. It is not applicable to coatings containing special-effect pigments, e.g. metallics, without previous agreement on all details of illuminating and viewing conditions. 2 Normative references The following standards cont

Assessment of metamerism is also taken into account. 4 Required supplementary information For any particular application,

31、 the test method specified in this International Standard needs to be completed by supplementary information. The items of supplementary information are given in Annex A. 5 Illumination for colour matching 5.1 General For routine colour matching, either natural or artificial daylight may be used. Th

32、e quality of natural daylight is variable, and observers judgements are likely to be affected by nearby coloured objects. For reference purposes therefore, closely controlled artificial illumination in a colour-matching booth shall be used. The observer shall wear clothing of a neutral colour, and n

33、o strongly coloured surfaces, other than the panels under test, shall be permitted in the field of view. 1) To be published. (Revision of ISO 7724-1:1984) 2) To be published.

34、ural daylight illumination Diffuse daylight, preferably from a partially cloudy north sky in the northern hemisphere and a partially cloudy south sky in the southern hemisphere, and not reflected from any strongly coloured object such as a red brick wall or green tree, shall be used. Illumination sh

35、all be uniform over the area in which test panels are displayed and at a level of at least 2 000 lx. Direct sunlight shall be avoided. 5.3 Artificial illumination by means of a colour-matching booth The colour-matching booth shall be an enclosure from which external light is excluded and which is il

36、luminated by a light source giving a spectral power distribution falling on the test panel, approximating to that of CIE standard illuminant D65 or CIE standard illuminant A. Where a light source having a different spectral distribution is used, it shall be agreed by the interested parties. The qual

37、ity of simulation of daylight shall be assessed by the method described in CIE Publication No. 51. The spectral distribution of the illuminant shall be in category BC (CIELAB) or better. The level of illumination at the colour-matching position shall be between 1 000 lx and 4 000 lx, a figure toward

38、s the upper end of the range being desirable for dark colours. The interior of the colour-matching booth for general use shall be painted a matt neutral grey (the amount of a *and b *shall be less than 1,0) with a lightness L *of about 45 to 55. However, when mainly light colours and near-white colo

39、urs are to be compared, the interior of the booth may be painted so as to have a lightness L *of about 65 or higher in order to give a lower brightness contrast with the colour to be examined; when mainly dark colours are to be compared, the interior of the booth may be painted matt black with a lig

40、htness L *of about 25. NOTE L * , a *and b *refer to the CIELAB system (see ISO 7724-1). To ensure an appropriate surrounding field for colour comparison, the table surface in the booth shall be covered by a neutral grey panel, its luminance factor being chosen to be similar to that of the samples t

41、o be compared. A diffusing screen shall normally be used to avoid the reflection of an image of the lamp from the test panel. The spectral distribution properties of the light source shall include the spectral transmission of the screen. The manufacturer of the light source shall disclose the number

42、 of running hours during which the product can be expected to conform to this International Standard. 6 Observer Observers shall have normal colour vision and shall be selected carefully because a significant proportion of people have defective colour vision. An lshihara test will reveal severe defe

43、cts but, to confirm an observers suitability, more sensitive tests, for example the Farnsworth 100 hue test or stricter anomaloscope measurements, are desirable. If an observer wears glasses to correct his or her vision, these shall have uniform spectral transmission throughout the visible spectrum.

44、 As colour vision changes significantly with age, it is desirable that observers over 40 years of age are tested using a proper method whereby the observer is requested to choose the best match from a metameric series of colours. For colour comparison work, not only normal colour vision but also col

45、our discrimination ability or experience is important. To avoid eye fatigue effects, pastel or complementary colours shall not be viewed immediately after strong colours. When comparing bright, saturated colours, if a decision cannot be made rapidly, the observer shall look away for some seconds at

46、the neutral grey of the surrounding field before attempting a further comparison. The quality of visual judgements falls off severely if the observer works continuously. Rest periods of several minutes during which no colour matching is attempted shall, therefore, be taken frequently.EN ISO 3668:200

47、1 BSI 01 October 2001 3 7 Test panels and reference standards 7.1 General Both test panels and reference colour standards shall be flat and preferably about 150 mm 100 mm in size. Suitable materials for test panels are tinplate, hard aluminium, glazed cardboard, steel or glass, complying with ISO 15

48、14. Panel size and viewing distance shall be chosen so that the panel subtends an angle at the eye of about 10 . If larger panels are used, a viewing field corresponding to the 10 observer shall be formed using a grey mask. Typical viewing distances and sizes for the square openings in the mask are

49、given in Table 1. Table 1 Viewing distances and opening sizes of masks 7.2 Reference standards Only colour standards of satisfactory colour permanence shall be used as reference standards. Wherever possible, the reference standards shall be of the same size as the test panels and shall have closely similar gloss and surface texture. 7.3 Preparation and coating Prepare test panels as specified and, where appropriate, in accordance with ISO 1514. The panels shall be coated by a closely specified or agreed method, be
