Abstract:
Four NIST laboratories held a Workshop on Advanced
Methods and Models for Appearance of Coatings and Coated
Objects on May 20, 1996 to help NIST researchers better
understand industry's needs. The four NIST laboratories
are Building and Fire Research Laboratory (BFRL),
Information Technology Laboratory (ITL), Manufactuing
Engineering Laboratory (MEL) and Physics Laboratory
(PL). Using coatings and coated products as a model
system, industry representatives presented coating
appearance-measurement issues, NIST researchers
described their proposal for a systems approach to
advance the science of appearance measurements, and, in
an open forum discussion, workshop attendees provided
feedback on the ideas presented and additional
recommendations.
