11、tee E-12 on Appearance ofMaterials has been studying the appearance of metallic surfaces.Thiswork has been conducted by Task Group 4.The participants in this worksoon realized that there existed no adequate and comprehensive compila-tion of techniques for describing the appearance attributes of meta
12、llicsurfaces.Other materials have long been studied with respect to theirappearance.For example,the color,texture,and visual appearance ofwhite and colored textiles,papers,and paints have been well defined,andASTM test methods for measuring chromatic attributes and gloss can befound in the Book of S
13、tandards.The metallic surfaces,however,presented a uniquely different problemof measuring the appearance.Most metallic surfaces have very little orno chromatic attributes.Or at least the chromatic features are not ofmajor importance to describe the visual properties of metals.Instead,metals exhibit
14、the features which the consumer generally refers to asbrightness.This term,which is somewhat of a misnomer for describingwhat the eye first notices about metals,is one of the problems of accuratedefinitions confronting the workers in this field.In the past several years the metallic appearance of ba
15、re and coatedmetal products has developed an increasingly larger importance to con-sumer products such as automotive and appliances.Other product areas,such as jewelry and other decorative items,are examples where the metallicappearance is a primary characteristic of consumer appeal of the product.T
16、he space age also introduced needs for measuring and defining the opticalproperties of metallic surfaces as related to reflectors,surfaces to providethermal balance in space vehicles,and the characteristics of metallic sur-faces with respect to electromagnetic radiation and reflection outside thevisible spectrum.This publication,however,will present results andfindings of workers who are primarily concerned with the materials mostcommonly used for consumer products such as aluminum and stainless
