Xenon Lamp Aging Test Chamber

The XD-500LS xenon lamp aging and weather resistance test chamber is an important means for screening formulations and optimizing product compositions during the scientific research and production process. It is also an important part of product quality inspection. Applied materials such as coatings, plastics, geotextiles, textiles, fuels, aluminum-plastic panels, as well as automotive safety glass, automotive interior parts, exterior parts, and other products are required by relevant standards to undergo weather resistance tests.

The main factors causing material aging are sunlight, temperature, and humidity. The xenon lamp aging and weather resistance test chamber can simulate sunlight, rainwater, and dew. The materials to be tested are placed in a cyclic program of alternating illumination and moisture at a certain temperature for testing. It can reproduce the damages that occur outdoors in several months or even several years within just a few days or weeks.

The xenon lamp accelerated weathering test chamber uses a xenon arc lamp that simulates the solar spectrum to reproduce the destructive light waves existing in different environments. It can provide corresponding environmental simulation and accelerated test basis for scientific research, product development, and quality control. It can be used for the selection of new materials, the improvement of existing materials, or the evaluation of changes in durability after the composition of materials is altered. It can effectively simulate the changes that materials undergo when exposed to sunlight under different environmental conditions.
