Abstract
Whiteness is an attribute of color perception with high brightness and low colorfulness. In this study, the correlation between instrumental measurement and visual assessment of whiteness of 40 optically brightened white samples was investigated under a LED light source of correlated color temperature (CCT) 5000K combined with Wood's UV-A lamp. Due to over exposure of UV radiation, tested samples were outside of CIE limit. In those cases, standard CIE whiteness formula show significant shift in whiteness interval scale. A high correlation was identified between visual assessment and modified Vik-Viková whiteness formula. The investigations have also shown that the existing CIBA plastic whiteness scale needs to be expanded.
