China Webinar - How to Run a Test Comparing Accelerated Test Instruments
Join Q-Lab China for a brand-new webinar topic - How to Run a Test Comparing Accelerated Test Instruments. Our experts will present best practices for performing comparative accelerated weathering testing between different laboratory instruments.
Save your spot for Thursday, 22 January at 10 am CST.
A key aspect of Weathering and Corrosion testing is ensuring consistency. This includes repeatable testing in a single instrument, consistency between testing at different laboratory locations, and comparable results between different types of testing equipment. To evaluate the latter, it is important to structure a scientifically-valid comparison test and set realistic expectations for performance before beginning testing. In this webinar, Q-Lab's technical experts will present best practices for comparison tests, including:
- Critical test parameters to standardize on and control
- How to perform equivalent color, gloss, and visual evaluations
- Including sufficient replicate specimens for statistical validity
- Determining and agreeing upon specific acceptance criteria
- Testing in multiple test chambers of each type being compared
The information in this session should provide a helpful outline for anyone trying to compare performance of a new weathering or corrosion test device to that of a known, established instrument.
This webinar will be presented in Chinese.
