ASTM D6789-02e2
Historical Standard: Standard Test Method for Accelerated Light Aging of Printing and Writing Paper by Xenon-Arc Exposure Apparatus
ASTM D6789
Scope
1.1 This test method describes a laboratory procedure for the exposure of printing and writing paper to xenon-arc light at elevated levels of light flux to permit accelerated aging of that type of paper.
1.2 This test method specifies the sample preparation and conditions of exposure required to obtain information on the relative stability of paper with regard to change in optical properties brought about by exposure of such paper to light.
1.3 This test method provides qualitative results regarding paper stability and does not define the life expectancy for a given paper to reach a specified set of optical properties.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
