select points

Measuring range: Different models of plastic gloss meters have different measuring ranges, which need to be selected according to specific measurement requirements.

Measurement angle: There are usually Glossmeters with different angles such as 20°, 45° and 60°, and it is necessary to select the appropriate angle according to the glossiness of the sample to be tested.

Stability: A gloss meter with better instrument stability can provide more accurate measurement results, and attention should be paid to the stability index.

Accuracy: Accuracy is one of the important indicators for evaluating the performance of plastic gloss meters, and it is necessary to select an instrument with higher accuracy according to actual needs.

Data processing function: Some advanced gloss meters have data processing and storage functions, which can analyze and process measurement data to improve work efficiency and data accuracy.

Precautions

Calibration: Calibration is required before use to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results.

Environmental impact: Glossmeters are sensitive to ambient temperature and humidity, and need to maintain stable environmental conditions during use.

Sample preparation: The surface of the sample should be clean, free from dust and scratches and other factors that may affect the gloss measurement.

Repeatability: In order to improve the repeatability of the measurement results, multiple measurements need to be taken and averaged.

Maintenance: Regularly clean and maintain the gloss meter to prolong its service life.
