WBE UV Accelerated Aging Test Chambers:
UV testing can reproduce damage that would occur outdoors over months or years in just a few days or weeks. Types of damage include: fading, discoloration, loss of gloss, chalking, cracking, clouding, bubbling, embrittlement, strength degradation, and oxidation. UV test data can help you select new materials and assess how changes in formulation affect the durability of new products. It is widely used in coatings, inks, paints, resins, plastics, rubber, printing and packaging, aluminum profiles, adhesives, automotive, motorcycle industries, cosmetics, metals, electronics, electroplating, and pharmaceuticals.
