Xenon Exposure Testing Services
Applied Technical Services’ environmental testing lab conducts xenon exposure testing to simulate the effects of sunlight exposure on products. The process allows manufacturers to evaluate and qualify a product’s performance in specific environmental conditions. Consumers expect products to have a reasonable lifespan, so manufacturers rely on environmental testing such as xenon exposure testing to ensure that their products perform well during their intended applications.
What is Xenon Exposure Testing?
Xenon exposure testing, or ultraviolet fluorescent testing, simulates the effects of heat, humidity, and sunlight on products and materials in an accelerated fashion. Gas discharge lamps called xenon arcs allow technicians to reproduce the effects of weathering with superb accuracy.
Applied Technical Services' Xenon Exposure Testing Services
Our environmental testing lab uses our xenon arc chambers to simulate the radiation spectrum of natural sunlight accurately. Our weathering chambers have a data logging software that allows technicians to closely monitor the test’s parameters, ensuring the accuracy of the collected data. We work closely with clients to develop the specifics of our testing procedures to ensure that the conditions accurately emulate the weather patterns of the material’s intended use. We conduct xenon exposure tests on various materials, including:
- Automotive and Aerospace Materials
- Coatings
- Decals
- Paints
- Polymeric Materials (indoor and outdoor)
