UV aging test standard and scope

UV aging test project refers to the process of simulating the aging of the product by various factors involved in the real use conditions to carry out the corresponding conditions to strengthen the experiment, mainly applicable to the aging test of non-metallic materials resistant to sunlight and artificial light. The test simulates the destructive effects of sunlight, humidity and temperature on materials; material aging includes fading, loss of light, strength reduction, cracking, peeling, chalking and oxidation, etc. UV aging test chamber by simulating sunlight, condensation, imitation of natural humidity, samples in the simulated sun UV environment test tens of hours or even days of time, can reproduce the outdoor damage that may occur in months or years, to understand how many years of product use after the aging situation.

UV aging test standards:

GB/T 14522-93;GB/T ;GB/T 16585-96;ASD4329-2005;D5208;G154;ISO 4892-3;ISO 11507;EN534;PREN 1062-4;BS2782;JIS D0205;SAE J2020;ASTM-G154. GBT14522-2008, D4587

 

Common UV aging tests:

UVA-340 simulates the ultraviolet part of the sunlight, mainly used for the light aging test of outdoor products;

UVA-351 simulates the ultraviolet part of the sunlight through the window glass, mainly used for the light aging test of indoor products;

UVB-313EL: Widely used for fast and economical testing of durable materials, which will accelerate the aging of materials and sometimes lead to abnormal results. The consent of the customer must be obtained when using it.

 

UV aging test range:

Mainly used for automotive, coatings, paints, printing and packaging, pigments, textiles, roofing materials, rubber, plastics, coatings, etc.

 

Reproducible and reliable aging test data can be obtained in just a few weeks or months with the QUV UV accelerated tester. Its short wavelength UV illumination and condensation cycle system realistically simulates the damaging effects of sunlight, dew and rain on materials.
