Standard Test Method for 45-deg Specular Gloss of Ceramic Materials
 N C346

Annotation

This test method covers the determination of the specular gloss of porcelain enameled specimens, but may be applicable to other specimens having similar reflection characteristics. This test method may be used to compare the gloss of porcelain enameled specimens or to provide an index of acid or abrasion resistance by measurement of gloss loss.

NOTE 1—Specular gloss is one of several related appearance attributes that produce the sensation of glossiness. For this reason, specular gloss measurements may not always correlate well with visual rankings of glossiness.

NOTE 2—Improved correlations with visual judgments can sometimes be achieved by the use of instruments with different geometries than those specified herein. Refer to Test Method D523 for 20, 60, and 85-deg geometries. Values generally cannot be predicated for one geometry from measurements made with another.

This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Метод стандартной пробы для зеркального блеска на 45 градусов керамических материалов

Этот метод испытаний покрывает определение зеркального блеска фарфора, эмалировал экземпляры, но может быть применим к другим экземплярам, имеющим подобные особенности отражения. Этот метод испытаний может использоваться для сравнения, блеск фарфора эмалировал экземпляры или обеспечить индекс кислоты или сопротивления трения измерением потери блеска.
