1、Designation:D521593(Reapproved 2021)Standard Test Method forInstrumental Evaluation of Staining of Vinyl Flooring byAdhesives1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5215;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,t
2、he year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method describes procedures and instrumenta-tion for accurately measuring the degree of staining that
3、mayoccur in vinyl flooring as a result of its contact with adhesives.Measured color differences between vinyl flooring specimenscontacting the adhesive and not contacting the adhesive areexpressed in the CIELAB Color-Scale System.1.2 This test method provides for visual evaluation ofstaining which m
