ISO 9211-4 Optics and Photonics - Optical Coatings - Part 4: Specific Test Methods

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 9211-4 testing. ISO 9211 describes the surface treatment of components and substrates by application of optical coatings, excluding ophthalmic optics (spectacles), and gives a standard form for their specification. It describes general characteristics and, where necessary, test and measurement methods, but is not intended to describe the process method.

ISO 9211-4 Optics and Photonics - Optical Coatings - Part 4: Specific Test Methods

ISO 9211-4 describes specific test procedures for coating environmental durability tests as defined in ISO 9211-3 but not described in other normative references.

Before and after subjecting a coated sample (component or witness sample) to any inspection or test, the sample should be thoroughly cleaned as necessary to remove dirt, fingerprints, stains, etc. The recommended storage time is at least 12 hours after coating.

The purpose of these tests is to evaluate the extent to which the optical and mechanical properties of optical coatings on components and substrates are affected when exposed to certain wear conditions under ambient atmospheric conditions.

It is permissible to clean the eraser with a clean towel, but solvents should not be used. Also, if embedded foreign matter is suspected, the eraser can be conditioned by rubbing it against a clean, smooth or frosted glass surface to wear away some of the rubber.

The purpose of these tests is to evaluate the extent to which the mechanical properties of optical coatings on components and substrates are affected when subjected to certain tensile or shear stress conditions under ambient atmospheric conditions.
