Kahulugan at paggamit
4.1 Tests conducted in accordance with this practice are used to compare the weathering properties of asphalt materials with control materials with known outdoor durability. It is not possible to establish a single relationship applicable to all materials between the timing of accelerated tests conducted under this protocol and the timing of natural weathering because (1) there are geoclimatic variations, local weather variations and local pollutant variations, at (2) the relationship between accelerated weathering and natural weathering depends on differences in acceleration factors between materials and different formulations of the same material. Guidance G141 provides guidance on the variability of outdoor and accelerated aging tests and the use of controlled materials.

Tala 1: Outdoor aging is recommended to verify the performance grades of accelerated laboratory tests.

Tala 2: This practice can be used for materials other than asphalt, but its significance and use have not been evaluated.

1.1 This code covers test conditions and procedures for xenon arc exposure to asphalt roofing and waterproof materials G151 and G155. (See the term G113.

1.2 Values expressed in SI units or inch-pound units shall be treated as standard values separately. The values specified in each system may not be fully equivalent; Kaya nga, bawat sistema ay dapat gamitin nang malaya sa isa't isa. Combining values from two systems may result in non-compliance.
