Paint and Coating Glossiness Meter

The paint coating gloss meter determines glossiness by measuring the ratio of surface reflected luminous flux to incident luminous flux. It uses a standard light source to illuminate the sample at a fixed angle, and a photodetector receives the intensity of the specularly reflected light. It is used for monitoring the gloss quality of surfaces such as paint, plastics, and paper, and complies with standards such as ASTM D523.
Selection
When selecting, consider the measurement angle (20° for high gloss, 60° for general use, 85° for low gloss) and verify that the instrument complies with the ISO2813 standard. Pay attention to the measurement aperture size and its adaptability to curved surfaces. The calibration plate should come with a traceability certificate. The instrument's repeatability error should be less than 0.2 GU, and the operation interface should be suitable for workshop environments.

Application of Gloss Meter in Gloss Measurement of Varnish Coatings
A gloss meter is used to measure the gloss of varnish coatings by detecting surface-reflected light to quantitatively assess the appearance of the coating. The measurement is based on the principle of specular reflection of light, commonly employing angles such as 20°, 60°, and 85° to correspond to different gloss ranges, and follows standard formulas for calculation.

The use of a gloss meter in evaluating the surface gloss of printing paper and art paper.
Gloss meters quantify paper gloss by measuring surface reflected light, with 20°, 60°, and 85° angles commonly used for high, medium, and low gloss surfaces, respectively. The gloss characteristics of printing paper and art paper differ, so the appropriate measurement angle should be selected based on the estimated gloss level.
Determination of specular gloss: Selection criteria for instruments at different angles (20°/60°/85°)
Specular gloss is a measure of a material's ability to reflect light, calculated by comparing the reflected luminous flux of a sample with that of a standard plate. Three angles—20°, 60°, and 85°—are commonly used for measurement, corresponding to high-gloss, medium-gloss, and low-gloss surfaces, respectively.
