Anodizing of aluminium and its alloys — Accelerated test of light fastness of coloured anodic oxidation coatings using artificial light
ISO 2135:2010 specifies an accelerated test method for assessing the fastness, using artificial light, of coloured anodic oxidation coatings on aluminium and its alloys. For evaluating light fastness on exterior exposure, only outdoor exposure under conditions comparable to actual service is completely satisfactory. Accelerated testing is suitable as a quality-control test of coloured anodic oxidation coatings whose light-fastness number has already been established by means of outdoor exposure testing. The method is applicable to coloured anodic oxidation coatings on aluminium and its alloys produced by any means and for any purpose. However, the method is not suitable for the measurement of coloured coatings with a light-fastness number already established by means of outdoor exposure testing, and of less than 6.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 2135 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 79, Light metals and their alloys, Subcommittee
SC 2, Organic and anodic oxidation coatings on aluminium.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 2135:1984), which has been technically
revised.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 2135:2010(E)
Anodizing of aluminium and its alloys — Accelerated test of
light fastness of coloured anodic oxidation coatings using
artificial light
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies an accelerated test method for assessing the fastness, using artificial
light, of coloured anodic oxidation coatings on aluminium and its alloys.
For evaluating light fastness on exterior exposure, only outdoor exposure under conditions comparable to
actual service is completely satisfactory.
Accelerated testing is suitable as a quality-control test of coloured anodic oxidation coatings whose light-
fastness number has already been established by means of outdoor exposure testing.
The method is applicable to coloured anodic oxidation coatings on aluminium and its alloys produced by any
means and for any purpose.
However, the method is not suitable for the measurement of coloured coatings with a light-fastness number
already established by means of outdoor exposure testing, and of less than 6.
