3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
control
in weathering test, the term "control" currently has three widespread uses:
a) a material which is of similar composition and construction to the test material, has a known response to the exposure conditions and is exposed at the same time for comparison.
