Plastics - Determination of the total luminous transmittance of transparent materials - Part 1: Single-beam instrument (ISO 13468-1:2019)

This document covers the determination of the total luminous transmittance, in the visible region of the
spectrum, of planar transparent and substantially colourless plastics, using a single-beam photometer
with a specified CIE Standard light source and photodetector. This document cannot be used for plastics
which contain fluorescent materials.
This document is applicable to transparent moulding materials, films and sheets not exceeding 10 mm
in thickness.
NOTE 1 Total luminous transmittance can also be determined by a double-beam spectrophotometer as in
ISO 13468-2. This document, however, provides a simple but precise, practical and quick determination. This
method is suitable for use not only for analytical purposes but also for quality control.
NOTE 2 Substantially colourless plastics include those which are faintly tinted.
NOTE 3 Specimens more than 10 mm thick can be measured provided the instrument can accommodate them,
but the results might not be comparable with those obtained using specimens less than 10 mm thick.

Kunststoffe - Bestimmung des totalen Lichttransmissionsgrades von transparenten Materialien - Teil 1: Einstrahlinstrument (ISO 13468-1:2019)

Dieses Dokument deckt die Bestimmung des totalen Lichttransmissionsgrades im sichtbaren Bereich des Spektrums von ebenen transparenten und weitgehend farblosen Kunststoffen ab, indem ein Einstrahlfotometer mit gemäß CIE spezifizierter Normlichtquelle und Fotodetektor verwendet wird. Dieses Dokument kann nicht für Kunststoffe verwendet werden, die fluoreszierende Materialien enthalten.
Dieses Dokument ist anwendbar auf transparente Formmassen, Folien, Platten und Tafeln mit Dicken nicht größer als 10 mm.
ANMERKUNG 1   Der totale Lichttransmissionsgrad kann auch mit einem Zweistrahlspektralfotometer bestimmt werden, wie in ISO 13468 2 beschrieben. Dieses Dokument beschreibt eine einfache aber genaue, praktische und schnelle Bestimmung. Diese Methode wird nicht nur für analytische Zwecke sondern auch zur Qualitätskontrolle eingesetzt.
ANMERKUNG 2   Weitgehend farblose Kunststoffe sind auch solche, die eine schwache Einfärbung enthalten.
ANMERKUNG 3   Probekörper, die dicker als 10 mm sind, können auch gemessen werden, wenn das Gerät dies vom Aufbau her zulässt, aber die Ergebnisse sind möglicherweise nicht mit denen vergleichbar, die an Probekörpern, die dünner als 10 mm sind, gewonnen wurden.

Plastiques - Détermination du facteur de transmission du flux lumineux total des matériaux transparents - Partie 1: Instrument à faisceau unique (ISO 13468-1:2019)

Le présent document traite de la détermination du facteur de transmission du flux lumineux total, dans le spectre visible des plastiques plans, transparents et pratiquement incolores, au moyen d'un photomètre à faisceau unique ayant une source de lumière spécifique et un photodétecteur conformes à la norme CIE. Le présent document ne peut pas être utilisé pour les plastiques contenant des matériaux fluorescents.
Le présent document est applicable aux matières moulées transparentes, aux films et aux feuilles d'épaisseur inférieure ou égale à 10 mm.
NOTE 1    Le facteur de transmission du flux lumineux total peut également être déterminé au moyen d'un spectrophotomètre à double faisceau, comme dans l'ISO 13468-2. Cependant, le présent document fournit une méthode simple, mais précise, qui permet de déterminer rapidement et commodément le facteur de transmission. Cette méthode est adaptée à l'emploi non seulement à des fins analytiques, mais également pour les besoins du contrôle qualité.
NOTE 2    Les plastiques pratiquement incolores comprennent les matériaux légèrement colorés.
NOTE 3    Les éprouvettes de plus de 10 mm d'épaisseur peuvent être utilisées pour le mesurage si la structure de l'instrument utilisé le permet, mais les résultats peuvent ne pas être comparables à ceux obtenus sur des éprouvettes de moins de 10 mm d'épaisseur.

Polimerni materiali - Določevanje celotne prepustnosti svetlobe prozornih materialov - 1. del: Instrument z enim žarkom (ISO 13468-1:2019)

Ta dokument zajema določanje skupne prepustnosti svetlobe, v vidnem območju spektra, ravninskih prozornih in bistveno brezbarvnih polimernih materialov s pomočjo enokanalnega fotometra s svetlobnim virom, določenim s standardom CIE, in fotodetektorjem. Tega dokumenta ni mogoče uporabiti za polimerne materiale,
ki vsebujejo fluorescentne materiale.
Ta dokument se uporablja za prozorne materiale za oblikovanje, filme in folije, ki niso debelejši od 10 mm.
OPOMBA 1: Skupno prepustnost svetlobe je mogoče določiti z dvokanalnim spektrofotometrom v skladu s standardom ISO 13468-2. Ta dokument pa omogoča preprosto, a natančno, praktično in hitro določevanje. Ta metoda ni primerna le za uporabo v analitične namene, temveč tudi za nadzor kakovosti.
OPOMBA 2: Med bistveno brezbarvne polimerne materiale spadajo tudi tisti, ki so rahlo obarvani.
OPOMBA 3: Primerke, debelejše od 10 mm, je mogoče izmeriti, če niso preveliki za instrument, vendar rezultati morda ne bodo primerljivi z rezultati, pridobljenimi s primerki, ki so tanjši od 10 mm.
