18、SO 10215:2018ForewordISO (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 subject f
19、or 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) on
20、 all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted.

ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any

26、sed.iv ISO 2018 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 10215:2018ISO 10215:2018IntroductionEstimation of the image clarity of anodic oxidation coatings on aluminium and its alloys is normally carried out visually by observing the clearness of an image on the surface. However, the image can be observed at vari
27、ous angles and can be confused with the gloss level of a surface; and while the degree of image clarity is mainly influenced by the clearness of the coating, it is also affected by image distortion caused by surface irregularities and the haziness of the coating layer. Standardized methods of determ
28、ining image clarity are therefore required.This document specifies the use of a chart scale based on optical combs, together with a lightness scale to rank image clarity, and has been found to give good correlation with visual evaluation. A related document, ISO 10216, specifies an instrumental meth
29、od of measuring image clarity, also by using optical combs. The instrumental method provides a more accurate measurement of image clarity than visual evaluation and should be used in cases of dispute.

34、an anodic oxidation coating to produce a clear image of an object reflected in the surfaceNote 1 to entry: In the method described in this document, image clarity is represented by a symbol Cvand is expressed as a numerical unit which is calculated by taking into account the image clearness, the ima
35、ge distortion and the haze value (see Clause 8).3.2image clearnessC limit of visual resolution of fine details of a chart scale when reflected by a surface, given by the grade number on the chart scaleNote 1 to entry: Image clearness relies heavily on the roughness of the surface being measured, and
36、 the lower the roughness the clearer or sharper the image becomes, i.e. the nearer the surface becomes to a perfect mirror, the clearer the image becomes.INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 10215:2018 ISO 2018 All rights reserved 1BS EN ISO 10215:2018ISO 10215:20183.3image distortionI degree of distortion of
37、 an image caused by the waviness of a surface, given by the grade number on the chart scaleNote 1 to entry: Image distortion depends on the evenness of the surface being measured. The distortion occurs because part of the incident light is reflected in a direction different from that of the bulk of
38、the light due to an uneven surface. Even if the surface is mirror-finished, it will present a distorted image if waviness is present.3.4haze valueH ndegree of opacity of the coating on a surface, expressed as a lightness unitNote 1 to entry: Haze represents the opacity or transparency of the coating
39、 layer. Poor transparency causes absorption and scattering of normally reflected light, thus reducing the clarity of the image.4 PrincipleThe image clarity of an anodic oxidation coating is determined by visual estimation of three properties of the coating layer: image clearness, image distortion an
40、d haze. These properties are determined by evaluating the image of a chart scale on the test specimens.5 Apparatus5.1 Chart scale, as shown in Figure 1, comprising a translucent plastic film or glass on which a pattern of optical combs is arranged using black and white lines with a range of specifie
41、d widths (Grades 1 to 11). The light transmittance of the dark lines should be virtually zero.The widths of the black lines, and the spaces between two adjoining black lines, for each grade, are the same and the lines are perfectly parallel. The lines for Grade 1 are the widest and those for Grade 1
42、1 are the narrowest. The widths of the lines for each grade are given in Table 1.NOTE The widths of lines for Grades 1 to 7 form an arithmetical progression. The grades above Grade 7 are used for estimating comparatively high image clarity and Grades 7, 9 and 11 form a geometrical progression. Grade
43、 8 is the median of Grades 7 and 9, and Grade 10 is the median of Grades 9 and 11.Figure 1 Chart scale with Grades 1 to 112 ISO 2018 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 10215:2018ISO 10215:2018Table 1 Width of lines for each grade of the chart scaleGrade 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11Width mm2,0 1,75 1,5 1,25 1,0
