Accelerated Aging Calculator

ASTM F1980

Accelerated Aging.

  1. Type the target shelf life (Days).
  2. Type your desired TAA & TRT values.
  3. The Q10 value can be changed, however the default is Q10 = 2.0 — we recommend holding this constant.
  4. The Accelerated Aging Factor is automatically calculated and provided for reference.
  5. The resultant chamber conditioning time (Days) is calculated and automatically rounded up to the next full day.
