20、 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 for which a technical committee has been established has the
21、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 all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedu
22、res 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. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial
23、rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights ide
24、ntified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not constitute an endorsement.For an explanation

26、 ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 6, Ageing, chemical and environmental resistance.This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 4892-1:1999), which has been technically revised.ISO 4892 consists of the following parts, under the general title Plastics Methods of exposure to la
27、boratory light sources: Part 1: General guidance Part 2: Xenon-arc lamps Part 3: Fluorescent UV lamps Part 4: Open-flame carbon-arc lampsiv ISO 2016 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 4892-1:2016ISO 4892-1:2016(E)IntroductionPlastics are often used outdoors or in indoor locations where they are exposed to
28、 solar radiation or to solar radiation behind glass for long periods. It is therefore very important to determine the effects of solar radiation, heat, moisture and other climatic stresses on the colour and other properties of plastics. Outdoor exposures to solar radiation and to solar radiation fil
29、tered by window glass are described in ISO 877 (all parts).1However, it is often necessary to determine more rapidly the effects of radiation, heat and moisture on the physical, chemical and optical properties of plastics with artificial accelerated weathering or artificial accelerated irradiation e
30、xposures that use specific laboratory light sources. Exposures in these laboratory devices are conducted under more controlled conditions than found in natural environments and are intended to accelerate eventual polymer degradation and product failures.Relating results from accelerated weathering o
31、r artificial accelerated irradiation exposures to those obtained in actual-use conditions is difficult because of variability in both types of exposure and because laboratory tests never reproduce exactly all the exposure stresses experienced by plastics exposed in actual-use conditions. No single l
32、aboratory exposure test can be specified as a total simulation of actual-use exposures.The relative durability of materials in actual-use exposures can be very different depending on the location of the exposure because of differences in UV radiation, time of wetness, temperature, pollutants and oth
33、er factors. Therefore, even if results from specific accelerated weathering or artificial accelerated irradiation exposures are found to be useful for comparing the relative durability of materials exposed in a particular outdoor location or in particular actual-use conditions, it cannot be assumed
34、that they will be useful for determining the relative durability of materials exposed in a different outdoor location or in different actual-use conditions.

35、l guidance1 ScopeThis part of ISO 4892 provides information and general guidance relevant to the selection and operation of the methods of exposure described in detail in subsequent parts. It also describes general performance requirements for devices used for exposing plastics to laboratory light s
36、ources. Information regarding performance requirements is for producers of artificial accelerated weathering or artificial accelerated irradiation devices.NOTE In this part of ISO 4892, the term “light source” refers to radiation sources that emit UV radiation, visible radiation, infrared radiation
37、or any combination of these types of radiation.This part of ISO 4892 also provides information on the interpretation of data from artificial accelerated weathering or artificial accelerated irradiation exposures. More specific information about methods for determining the change in the properties of
38、 plastics after exposure and reporting these results is given in ISO 4582.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
