Colourimetric Testing
and Whiteness
Assessment
Objective
The aim is to determine colourimetric values and colour
difference in an almost uniform CIELab Colour Space as well
as to measure the degree of whiteness quality of white,
fluorescent resp. non-fluorescent samples.

Description
The spectral reflection of the samples will be determined by
spectral photometers with varying measurement geometries
(d/8, d/0, 45/0) and different standard illuminants. Depending
upon the task the spectral data will be used to calculate the
different criteria of colourimetry and whitness quality.
equations. Providing a master sample or master values, the
differences of the comparison sample can be determined on
base of various formular (Pass/Fail systems e. g. CIE76, CMC,
DIN99, CIE2000).
Amount of material:
• Test sample in DIN A4 format (approx. 20 cm x 30 cm)
Duration of testing:
• 10 working days after receipt of order and samples
