Abstract
A comparative study of statistical particle model theory of
diffuse reflectance has been made. Theories have been applied to six
particulate samples having different optical characteristics and average
particle sizes that vary from 42 to 106 µm. We made an overall assessment
of each theoretical model by determining the CIELAB color difference using
experimentally measured and theoretically predicted diffuse reflectance
spectra in the visible spectral range. We discuss the performance ratings of
the models of other researchers and discovered numerous typographical errors
in Fresnel reflection coefficient expressions. We provide the correct versions
for these expressions.
