Plastics - Determination of changes in colour and variations in properties after exposure to glass-filtered solar radiation, natural weathering or laboratory radiation sources (ISO 4582:2025)
Kunststoffe - Bestimmung von Änderungen der Farbe und anderer Eigenschaften nach Bestrahlung mit durch Glas gefilterter Sonnenstrahlung, nach natürlicher oder nach künstlicher Bewitterung (ISO 4582:2025)
Overview
This document specifies methods for determining changes in colour and other appearance properties, and variations in mechanical or other properties, of plastics that have been exposed to glass-filtered solar radiation, to natural weathering or to simulated solar radiation from a laboratory source. The procedure used to analyse data depends on whether the test used to characterize the materials being exposed is destructive or non-destructive. The exposures are conducted under conditions specified in specific exposure standards (for example, the ISO 877 series and the ISO 4892 series). The responsible national standardization committee is Working Committee NA 054-01-04 AA "Verhalten gegen Umwelteinflüsse" ("Environmental resistance") at DIN Standards Committee Plastics (FNK).
