Near Infrared 45{degrees}/0{degrees} Reflectance Factor of Pressed Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Powder

Abstract
Pressed polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) powder is commonly used as a reflectance standard for bi-directional and hemispherical geometry. The radiometric and spectrophotometric community has demonstrated the need for the complete characterization of such of a standard. This publication presents the preliminary results on the reflection properties of PTFE in the near infrared region to expand the reflectance factor scale, as well as the measurements in the visible spectral region for continuity. The resulting variations in 45°/0° reflectance factor with sample preparation are briefly discussed.Citation
