对聚苯乙烯(PS)、聚碳酸酯(PC)、聚乙烯(PE)、共聚聚丙烯(PPl)和均聚聚丙烯(PP2)这5种常见高分子材料开展模拟干热环境条件的人工加速老化试验,发现PC的色差在老化过程中同时具备稳定及显著的环境响应性,且与辐照量成线性关系;不同温度的人工加速老化试验证明PC的色差及黄色指数具有相对稳定的环境响应性。不同湿度的人工加速老化试验表明,PC对湿度敏感,不推荐作为湿热环境相关性的评价材料。基于PC的色差性能,对模拟干热环境的人工加速老化试验方法及自然干热环境(吐鲁番)的相关性进行了探讨。分析结果显示,二者具有良好的相关性,加速因子约为12.75。
Five common polymer materials including polystyrene (PS), polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene ( PE), copolymerization polypropylene ( PP1 ) and homopolymerization polypropylene ( PP2 ) were subjected to artificial accelerated weathering tests simulated dry-hot environment. PC was proposed to evaluate the correlation of different dry-hot weathering tests because its' color shift showed a steady and significant linear relationship with the cumulated UV doses. However, artificial accelerated weathering tests with different relative humidity revealed that PC was not suitable for hot-hot environment due to its sensitivity to humidity. Based on the color shift of PC, the correlation between artificial accelerated weathering method simulated dry-hot environment and natural dry-hot environment (Turpan) was discussed. Result indicated that they showed a nice correlation, and the accelerated factor was about 12. 75.
