Accelerated Exposure of Automotive Exterior Materials Using a Controlled Irradiance Air-Cooled Xenon-Arc Apparatus

2012-11-19
CURRENT
J2019_201211
This SAE Standard specifies the operating procedures for a controlled irradiance, air-cooled xenon-arc apparatus used for the accelerated exposure of various automotive exterior materials. The sample preparation, test durations, and performance evaluation procedures are covered in material specifications of the different automotive manufacturers.

Load Deflection Testing of Urethane Foams for Automotive Seating

2007-08-13
HISTORICAL
J815_200708
Traditionally, cellular foam products have been checked for load deflection by determining the load required to cause a 25% deflection. In automotive seating, on the other hand, the load deflection is checked by determining the thickness under constant force conditions to (a) indicate the initial softness of the seat cushion, (b) measure how thick the seat cushion is under the average passenger load (a measurement of padding left for “ride” and seated height), and (c) determine a value to indicate resiliency. In this method these measurements are made by determining the thickness of the seat cushion under fixed loads of 4.5 N, 110 N, and 220 N with a 323 cm2 circular indentor foot.

Optical Imaging Evaluation of Impact Damage Resistance Testing on Exterior Finishes

2011-05-26
HISTORICAL
J2661_201105
This SAE Recommended Practice covers a procedure for evaluating plastic and multiple-layer coatings exposed to gravelometer testing (as defined in SAE J400) with an optical imaging and analysis system. The intent of the procedure is to detect, count and characterize instances of damage in the coated surface that fracture the top coat layer or penetrate through multiple layers of the coating system. It may be possible to extend this methodology of coating damage evaluation to specimens that have undergone test procedures or exposures that produce similar, discrete damage sites in the coating system. If so applied, evaluation results must be interpreted with respect to the limitations and intent implied by the original evaluation procedure and its associated rating system, if applicable.
