ASTM F1252-21 - Standard Test Method for Measuring Optical Reflectivity of Transparent Materials

1.1 This test method covers a procedure for measuring the reflectivity of transparent materials, hereafter known as specimens. The results are repeatable without specifying a particular brand name of instrumentation.

1.2 This test method applies to substantially flat parts. Errors in measurement can occur if the parts being measured are not substantially flat.

1.3 Units—The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.4 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
