25、ficial daylight in a standard booth. NOTE Results might differ between natural and artificial daylight. It might be that two colour specimens will match in daylight but not under another light source. This phenomenon is known as metamerism (see EN 13523-15). If metameric match is to be reported in o
26、bjective terms, spectrophotometric measurements (using CIE Standard Illuminants D65 and A) should be made, in accordance with EN 13523-15. No statement is made about either the precision or the accuracy of this procedure since the results derived are neither in numerical form nor do they provide a p
27、ass/fail evaluation in objective terms. Therefore, this procedure should only be used where the use of colour measuring instruments is not recommendable (evaluation of colour matches, inspection of metallic colours, etc.). Although colour measuring instruments should be used where possible, in some
28、cases a visual comparison can be useful (evaluation of colour matches, inspection of metallic colours, etc.). The standardization of such visual comparisons, by light sources, illuminating and viewing geometry and specimen size, provides for improved uniformity of results. This practice is essential
29、 for critical colour matching and is highly recommended for colour inspections. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the re
30、ferenced document (including any amendments) applies.

The comparison is carried out using either diffuse natural
34、daylight or artificial daylight, in a standard booth. 5 Illumination for colour matching 5.1 Natural daylight Light from a moderately overcast northern sky (for countries on the northern hemisphere). Reflection from strongly coloured neighbouring objects as well as direct sunlight should be excluded
35、. The level of illumination shall be at least 2 000 lx and shall be uniform over the viewing area. 5.2 Artificial daylight The evaluation area shall be shielded from external light, preferably by a permanent structure (lighting cabinet). The spectral characteristics of the light source should be equ
36、ivalent to those of the CIE Standard Illuminant D65. NOTE DIN 6173-2, BS 950-1 and BS 950-2 provide procedures for measuring the actual spectral energy distribution over the viewed area. The photometric conditions require an illumination between 1 000 lx (for very light colours) and 4 000 lx (for ve
37、ry dark colours). The manufacturer of the artificial light source shall disclose the number of running hours which his product can be expected to conform to this European Standard. 5.3 Colour-matching booth See also EN ISO 3668. The colour-matching booth shall be an enclosure from which external lig
38、ht is excluded and which is illuminated by a light source giving a spectral power distribution falling on the test specimen, approximating to that of CIE Standard Illuminant D65. The interior of the booth for general use shall be painted a matt neutral grey (the amount of a* and b* shall be less tha
39、n 1,0) with a lightness L* of about 45 to 55 (Munsell N4 to N5, NCS S 5500-N to S 6500-N). However, when mainly light colours and near-white colours are to be compared, the interior of the booth may be painted so as to have a lightness L* of about 65 (Munsell N6, NCS S 4500-N) or higher in order to
40、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 lightness L* of about 25 (Munsell matt black, NCS S 9000-N). NOTE L*, a* and b* refer to the CIELAB system (ISO 7724-1). To secure
41、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 to be compared. A diffusing screen shall normally be used to avoid the reflection of an image of the
42、 lamp from the test specimen. The spectral distribution properties of the lighting device shall include the spectral transmission of the screen. 6 Observer In order to obtain the best possible results, the following is recommended: Copyright European Committee for Standardization Provided by IHS und
43、er license with CENNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-BS EN 13523-22:2010EN 13523-22:2010 (E) 7 a) It should be ensured that the observer has a good colour vision. This can be checked by a Farnsworth test. b) Observers should wear clothing of a neutral
44、 colour. c) Some rest periods should be allowed between the evaluation of widely differing matches as well as between long sessions. 7 Sampling See EN 13523-0. 8 Test specimens and reference standards 8.1 Standards as well as test specimens shall be uniform in colour and gloss and free of imperfecti
45、ons and should preferably be flat. The preferred size of test specimens is about 150 mm 100 mm. Specimens of a size at least larger than 120 mm 50 mm should be used. 8.2 The standard coating shall have an acceptable light fastness, and its gloss and texture shall approximate those of the coating to
46、be evaluated. NOTE Since application, curing and film thickness contribute to the resulting colour, test specimens should be pre-treated and coated (including application of a priming coat, if required) as specified. The dry film thickness should be determined in accordance with EN 13523-1. 9 Proced
47、ure 9.1 General Evaluate the colour difference at ambient temperature. For more accurate comparisons, as required for instance in case of dispute, the temperature shall be (23 2) C and the relative humidity (50 5) %, in accordance with EN 23270. 9.2 Day-to-day routine Evaluate each pair of test spec
48、imens under natural or artificial daylight. Place the specimens and the standard on a table or bench at the required distance from the light source to obtain the level of illumination required. The specimens and the standard should be placed in the same plane. View the specimens and the standard at a distance of approximately 500 mm. At this distance, the observer range should be 10 in accordance with ISO 11664-1. To improve the accuracy of the comparison, interchange the position of
