To extend the life of a haze meter, keep the instrument dust-free and clean, regularly calibrate it, and control for a stable dry storage. For better results, avoid letting the optics dry, and leave the meters under sunlight. For optimal performance, have the meter professionally serviced once a year.

Color is a qualitative and quantitative measure. Qualitatively, it can be characterized by the hue, the saturation, and the brightness. It is quantified in terms of color spaces, such as L*a*b* or RGB, in terms of numerical values based on devices such as colorimeters or spectrophotometers.

Our haze meters provide consistent and accurate data as per the requirements of ASTM D1003, ISO 13468, and JIS K7105. Due to the high precision, advanced optics, and automatic calibrations, haze meters produce repeatable and precise results for glass, films, and plastics while remaining simple to operate.

Powder paint gloss levels are classified as:

● Flat: 0–10 GU

● Satin: 11–40 GU

● Semi-gloss: 41–70 GU

● Gloss: 71–85 GU

● High Gloss: 86+ GU
 

These are measured at a 60° angle for standardization.

Plastics, glasses, films, coatings, and packaging materials are common uses of hazemeter to monitor consistency and quality. 

To answer this question, you first need to clarify your specific needs: 

• Is it for simple color quality control (QC)?

• To coordinate with supply chain color management?

• To monitor on-line color stability?

• Do you require computer color matching or production color correction?

• What is your budget?

• Systematic supervision and evaluation of color performance in dyed products?

If you aren’t fully clear about your requirements at the initial stage, our color management engineers are ready to communicate with you. We will recommend solutions tailored to your needs. When conditions permit, we can provide prototype demonstrations and trial testing to ensure the instrument meets your practical application requirements.

 A gloss test gauges the reflective quality of a surface by casting light at a fixed angle and measuring the amount reflected. It defines the level of shine or dullness of a surface, and it is very crucial in coatings, automotive, and product finishing

The gloss scale is normally measured against the scale of 0 to 100 gloss units (GU). The scale is zero at matte and 100 at a mirror. Other very smooth surfaces can be over 100 GU at lower angles, such as 20°.

Colorimeters have fixed wavelength filters and LEDs; it is less precise and simpler. Monochromators are applied to spectrophotometers, which scan a spectrum of wavelengths. Giving more detailed spectral information. Spectrophotometers are more sensitive and flexible in complicated analyses.
