9、V/condensation chamber followedby one week in a cyclic salt fog/dry chamber.The fluorescentUV/condensation cycle is 4-h UV at 0.89 W/(m2 nm)at 340nm at 60C followed by 4-h condensation at 50C,usingUVA-340 lamps.The fog/dry chamber runs a cycle of 1-h fogat ambient temperature and 1-h dry-off at 35C.
10、The fogelectrolyte is a relatively dilute solution,with 0.05%sodiumchloride and 0.35%ammonium sulfate.5.Significance and Use5.1 The outdoor corrosion of painted metals is influenced bymany factors,including:corrosive atmospheres,rain,con-densed dew,UV light,wet/dry cycling,and temperaturecycling.The
