This document specifies a method for exposing specimens made from poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) based profiles to xenon-arc radiation, in order to assess changes in characteristics.
It is applicable to PVC based profiles including those covered with foil, paint, print, thermo-laminated foils or coextruded.
NOTE  The determination of changes in colour and variations of properties after exposure of PVC based profiles to xenon-arc radiation is described in an informative Annex A.
