21 BACKGROUND Round robin confirmed reproducibility and repeatability of solar reflectance testing Specification to implement procedure Prepared vs. commercially-available substrate Thermal emittance testing Weathering/field exposure RCMA Annual Meeting February 27,

22 SUBSTRATE Discussed commercial substrate Potential to reduce error in preparation Ease of preparation M&I confirmed use of prepared substrate at December 2016 meeting Round Robin confirmed reproducibility and repeatability No study using commercial product as substrate RCMA Annual Meeting February 27,

23 THERMAL EMITTANCE TESTING Applicability of slide method discussed Potential damage to equipment Devices & Services completed preliminary testing to higher slide method Surface temperature effect Surface roughness effect (0.018 displacement) Effects minimal and tend to offset one another RCMA Annual Meeting February 27,

24 THERMAL EMITTANCE PRELIMINARY RESULTS A B Sample C1371 Slide Method Avg. of 4 Measurements A B Control RCMA Annual Meeting February 27,

25 THERMAL EMITTANCE ON-GOING WORK Subcommittee reviewed C1371 and Slide Method comparison data C1371 thermal conductance threshold (>1100 W/m2 K) LBNL & ORNL will complete more testing to assess reproducibility RCMA Annual Meeting February 27,

26 WEATHERING No weathering of rough specimens completed Durability of specimens Working group discussed solutions (February) Weather specimens Simulate weathering Working group confirmed need for 3-year aging RCMA Annual Meeting February 27,
