Säänkestoisuus
säänkestoisuus refers to the ability of materials, structures, or products to withstand exposure to various weather conditions without significant deterioration. This property is crucial for outdoor applications where items face constant exposure to rain, snow, UV radiation, temperature fluctuations, and wind. Materials with high weather resistance maintain their structural integrity, appearance, and functionality over extended periods despite harsh environmental conditions.
Testing weather resistance typically involves exposing samples to accelerated weathering conditions in laboratories, including cycles of
Several factors influence weather resistance, including material composition, surface treatments, and protective coatings. Metals may corrode
