Standard Test Method for Accelerated Aging of Electrochromic Devices in Sealed Insulating Glass Units

Importancia y uso:

4.1 EC glazings perform a number of important functions in a building envelope including: minimizing the solar energy heat gain; providing for passive solar energy gain; controlling a variable visual connection with the outside world; enhancing human comfort (heat gain), illumination, and glare control; and providing for architectural expression. It is therefore important to understand the relative serviceability of these glazings.

4.2 This test method is intended to provide a means for evaluating the relative serviceability of EC Glazings as described in Section 1.

4.3 The procedures in this test method include (a) rapid but realistic current-voltage cycling tests emphasizing the electrical properties, and (b) environmental test parameters that are typically used in weatherability tests by standards organizations and are realistic for the intended use of large-area EC IGUs.
