Hiding Power Meter

hiding_power_meter.jpg (11122 octets)Features:

  • Instant readings may be captured at the press of a button
  • Alternatively continuous reading allows rapid assessment of reflectance variation by sliding the instrument whilst holding the read button
  • Automatic calculation of max., min., mean and corfficient of variation of hiding power batches
  • Results batching
  • Down loading of data into a PC or directly to on-line printer
  • Windows software for analysis and permanent data storage supplied
  • Durability and stability achieved through solid optical block arrangement
  • Patented auto-stabilisation circuitry

Principles of operation
The test surface is illuminated from a 45° angle. The intensity is scattered light at the perpendicular (i.e. 0°) is measured.

Data is recorded on a grey scale where black is 0% and while is 100%. Only shading is measured, irrespective of colour, and is referred ta as whiteness.

Hiding power determination according to ISO 2814 involves measuring whiteness of a known film of test material on both a black (<5%) and a white (>75%; <85%) substrate. NOVO-PAC automatically calculates the ratio of these two readings to give the hiding power measurement.
