An environmental test chamber is a kind of equipment used to simulate various climatic conditions that may be encountered by-products in the actual use environment. Through the product’s physical and other related characteristics of the test, to determine whether the performance of the product meets the predetermined requirements, to ensure that the product still has…
Plastic in the use, processing, and storage process, due to external factors, such as light, oxygen, heat, radiation, odor, rain, mold, bacteria, etc., destroy the chemical structure, so that the original good performance is missing, this phenomenon is commonly known as aging. Plastic aging is mainly manifested in the appearance of discoloration, physical property changes,…
In electroplating, durability and how materials perform are of significant importance. In this article, let’s go into the details of UV aging test chambers. And, how important these chambers are in the electroplating industry.
Salt spray test results are usually judged by the degree of corrosion and weight loss on the surface. Less corrosion or less weight loss indicates better corrosion resistance of the metal. Specific judgement criteria can be determined according to the relevant norms, standards, and requirements.
In coatings and finishes, the durability of paints and varnishes plays a crucial role. This is significant for maintaining the aesthetic appeal and protection of surfaces. But exposure to various environmental factors can speed up the ageing process. These factors include UV radiation, leading to premature coatings degradation. It is vital to ensure the performance and reliability of paints and varnishes. For this, UV ageing testing chambers have emerged as an indispensable tool.
This article provides a comprehensive overview of weather resistance aging tests for coatings. The piece elaborates on test methods, including natural exposure and artificially accelerated aging tests, utilizing equipment like UV, xenon lamp, and carbon arc lamp aging testers. Standards such as ASTM G53, G154, and G155 are mentioned for aging resistance test benchmarks.
Color fastness is how well a fabric’s color protects against washing, sunlight, and friction. It measures resistance to fading or bleeding. Also, It ensures the longevity and integrity of the fabric’s color under different conditions. It measures how fast or permanent a color is on the fabric.
This blog post discusses the importance of colorfastness to light testing in textiles, particularly focusing on the fading of colors when exposed to sunlight. It outlines the precautions and procedures involved in conducting such tests. Additionally, it explains the principles, methods, and equipment used in light color fastness testing, both natural and artificial. The post also offers methods for improving color fastness, such as selecting appropriate dyes and managing the dyeing process effectively.
This article provides the reader with a comprehensive understanding of the ASTM G85 test standard, including its principles, applications, strengths, and weaknesses.
