Значение и использование

The attribute of clarity of a sheet, measured by its ability to transmit image-forming light, correlates with its regular transmittance. Sensitivity to differences improves with decreasing incident beam- and receptor-angle. If the angular width of the incident beam and of the receptor aperture (as seen from the specimen position) are of the order of 0.1° or less, sheeting of commercial interest have a range of transparency of about 10 to 90 % as measured by this test. Results obtained by the use of this test method are greatly influenced by the design parameters of the instruments; for example, the resolution is largely determined by the angular width of the receptor aperture. Caution should therefore be exercised in comparing results obtained from different instruments, especially for samples with low regular transmittance.

Regular transmittance data in accordance with this test method correlate with the property commonly known as see-through, which is rated subjectively by the effect of a hand-held specimen on an observer’ability to distinguish clearly a relatively distant target. This correlation is poor for highly diffusing materials because of interference of scattered light in the visual test.

Область применения

1.1 This test method covers the measurement of the transparency of plastic sheeting in terms of regular transmittance ( Tr ). Although generally applicable to any translucent or transparent material, it is principally intended for use with nominally clear and colorless thin sheeting.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. the values given in parentheses are for information only.

1.3 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.

Note 1—There is no similar or equivalent ISO standard.

Note 2—For additional information, see Terminology E 284 and Practice E 1164.
