ISO 15110:2017 pdf download.Paints and varnishes — Artificial weathering including acidic deposition
1 Scope
This document specifies a so-called acid dew and fog test (ADF test) as an accelerated laboratory test method for simulating, by the use of artificial acidic precipitation, the damaging effects of acidic atmospheric precipitation in association with UV radiation, neutral condensed precipitation, and changing temperature and humidity. This test method is intended to be used in evaluating, on the basis of relative performance rankings, the suitability of painted materials for use in outdoor environments with acidic precipitation. It is not intended to generate the same extent of damage or the same damage pattern as in outdoor weathering, but rather to give a ranking which is similar to that which would be obtained in outdoor weathering. The method produces damage which is more homogeneous, allows fewer specimens to be exposed (and hence more rapid testing) and enables evaluation of the exposed specimens to be carried out using methods which are more objective than visual assessment.

4 Principle
The combined action of solar UV radiation, heat, humidity, wetting and acidic deposition is simulated in weathering devices similar to those described in ISO 4892-2 and ISO 16474-2 for xenon-arc lamps and in ISO 4892-3 and ISO 16474-3 for fluorescent UV lamps. Included in the artificial exposure is an acidic exposure, which is accomplished by a once-per-day spraying of acid. The aim of this test is not to reproduce the visual damage patterns which result from outdoor exposures, which show a very widespread distribution that is hard to evaluate. Rather, the aim is to reproduce the same ranking which would be obtained with an outdoor exposure, by causing damage by the same mechanisms but creating a homogeneous distribution on a smaller scale that can be evaluated in an objective way.
