plastics - and UV testing

plastics - and UV testing

(OP)
I am looking for insight into what UV standards are typically used for plastics. Is ASTM most frequently used? what about IEC?  also I understand that the IEC requires more broadband frequency range.  Any comments would be appreciated.

RE: plastics - and UV testing

I'm not sure about industrial designs but most of the architects prefer ASTM and BS in terms of UV testing.
