The work of preparing Internati
8、onal 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 right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with IS
9、O, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical co
10、mmittees is to prepare International Standards. 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. Attention is drawn to the
11、 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.

12、ghts reservedIntroduction This International Standard describes the light source which is used for the performance test of photocatalysts excited by ultraviolet (UV) radiation. A photocatalyst displays its performance by light irradiation and the type of light source used depends on its applied prod
13、uct. Its performance includes self-cleaning, air purification, anti-bacteria, anti-mold, water purification, etc. While it is possible to describe the light source individually depending on each performance test, this International Standard specifies independently a common standard, considering that
14、 photocatalytic materials offer complex effects and there are many common items in the light source.

20、 10677:2011(E) 2 ISO 2011 All rights reserved4 Light source 4.1 General Photocatalysts, including TiO2, are excited by UV radiation of wavelength less than 400 nm. When irradiated by UV radiation, oxidation and reduction reactions can occur at the surface of the photocatalyst. Therefore, photocataly
21、tic materials are activated by sunlight or UV light sources. The photocatalytic efficiency depends upon the spectral distribution and radiant intensity. Light sources which include radiation of wavelength between 300 nm and 400 nm are therefore suitable for the testing of photocatalytic materials. A
22、s the UV irradiance can differ depending upon the location, it is preferable that the irradiance of the UV light source used for the test should be representative of the actual irradiance where the photocatalytic material will be utilized. UV light sources include a fluorescent UV lamp, xenon arc la
23、mp, germicidal lamp, mercury lamp, metal halide lamp and UV-LED. Considering the wavelength distribution, stability of irradiance and ability to produce a continuous spectrum, a fluorescent UV lamp and xenon arc lamp shall be used for testing of photocatalyst materials. 4.2 Fluorescent ultraviolet l
24、amps Fluorescent lamps use the emission from a low-pressure mercury arc to excite a phosphor that produces a continuous spectrum. In a fluorescent UV lamp, phosphors emitting UV radiation of wavelength 300 nm to 400 nm are used, and a spectral distribution depends on the type of phosphors. Moreover,
25、 in fluorescent UV lamps, a blacklight lamp (BL lamp) made of a colourless transparent glass tube, and a blacklight blue lamp (BLB lamp) made of a blue glass which absorbs a visible radiation, exist. In evaluating a photocatalyst excited by UV radiation, fluorescent UV lamps that have peak irradianc
26、e at 351 nm or 368 nm shall be used. Examples of relative spectral irradiances are shown in Table 1.

A spectral irradiance of a fluorescent UV lamp with a 351 nm peak is widely distributed in the UV-A region, and it
28、s short wavelength is close to sunlight transmitting window glass, thus is suitable in evaluating photocatalytic materials for indoor application.

32、4 ISO 2011 All rights reservedSince radiation from a xenon arc lamp contains predominatly UV radiation of short wavelengths which are not present in sunlight on the earths surface, optical filters shall be used in order to make the spectral distribution closer to that on the earths surface, when eva
33、luating photocatalytic materials excited by sunlight. Table 4 of CIE Publication No.85:1989 shall be used for spectral distribution of sunlight. In the case of photocatalytic material utilizing for light transmitted by window glass, a soda-lime glass of thickness 3 mm or more shall be added. When oz
34、one is generated from a lamp, it is necessary to exhaust this ozone so that it does not come into contact with the test piece. Unfiltered xenon arc lamps are not suitable for test substances and reaction products that absorb in the visible spectral region, such as methylene blue. Xenon arc lamps emi
35、t much IR radiation. In order to prevent a rise in temperature, either a water filter or an IR absorption filter can be used. 5 Test chamber and apparatus 5.1 Test chamber The test chamber shall irradiate a test piece uniformly. Moreover, UV irradiance shall be adjusted by the distance between a tes
36、t piece and lamp. If installing a reflection plate or a test-piece cover, a material which has small ultraviolet absorption or small deterioration shall be used and the structure shall be able to measure irradiance at the test piece. 5.2 Test chamber for testing of low irradiance In the case of test
37、ing for low irradiance, a metal mesh or a light insulation metal plate shall be inserted between a lamp and a test piece in order to reduce irradiance. The metal mesh or a light insulation plate shall be set near the lamp so that irradiance on the test piece shall be uniform. 5.3 UV radiometer a) Th
38、e UV radiometer shall be used for measurement of UV irradiance at the test piece. In the case of not being able to measure UV irradiance at the test piece, the UV irradiance measured shall be corrected for the irradiance on the surface of test piece. b) In the case of a large light source, such as f
39、luorescent UV lamps, or using multi-light sources, a UV radiometer with a good cosine response shall be used. c) The UV radiometer shall be calibrated against the light source of testing. The spectral sensitivity of a UV radiometer generally depends on the wavelength, and is mainly calibrated at the
40、 specified wavelength (such as the 365 nm mercury line). If using a light source with a different spectral distribution from the calibrated light source, the UV radiometer shall be recalibrated against the light source for testing, or the measurement values have to be corrected using measured calibr
41、ation factors. An example of the spectral sensitivity of a UV radiometer in which the spectral sensitivity is constant in the range between 310 nm and 380 nm is shown in Figure 2.

Especially when a painted plate or plastic is used as a reflection plate or cover, whi
43、ch absorbs UV radiation. In such a case, the measurement of UV irradiance shall be done on a test piece with the same conditions of testing. The measurement value shall be expressed in watts per square metre (W/m2) or milliwatts per square centimetre (mW/cm2). Since UV irradiance depends on the lamp
44、s temperature, the measurement of UV irradiance shall be done at least 15 min after switching the lighting on. The UV radiation of lamps decreases with hours of operation. The UV irradiance shall be measured at both the start and end of the test period. 7 Test report The test report shall include th
45、e items described in the test method used. For irradiation conditions, the following information shall be included. a) Type of lamp used (peak wavelength, catalogue number, manufacturers name). b) Type of filter used (catalogue number, manufacturers name, thickness). c) Type of UV radiometer used in
46、 the measurement (spectral sensitivity of the UV radiometer and details of the calibration). d) UV irradiance (if the operation time of lamp is 100 h or more, UV irradiance at the start and finish of testing).
