BS EN ISO 15110:2017 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.Cross References:ISO 16474-1:2013 ED1ISO 16474-3:2013ISO 16474-2:2013 ED1VDI 3958-12ISO 2813:2014 ED4ISO 11664-1:2007ISO 3668:2017ISO 4628-1:2016ISO 4628-6:2011 Ed 3ISO 11664-4:2008ISO 4892-3:2016ISO 4628-5:2016ISO 4628-7:2016ISO 11664-2:2007ISO 4628-8:2012 ED2ISO 175:2010 Ed 3ISO 13803:2014 ED2ISO/CIE 11664-5:2016ISO 4628-4:2016ISO 2812-5:2007 Ed 1 (R10)ISO 1514:2016ISO 11664-3:2012ISO 4892-2:2013 ED3ISO 4628-2:2016ISO 4628-3:2016ISO 4628-10:2016ISO 15528:2013 ED2All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
