Hello,
I need the BSDF data for Aeroglaze Z306 black paint for stray light analysis. I couldn't find it in the ZEMAX database or online platforms. Can anyone help?

If you need the BSDF, you may need to get it measured.
There are however a few curves in the literature (from a quick google search) with the reflectance as function of incidence angle and wavelength

Thank you for your detailed answer, but I don’t have the equipment to measure this data.
The Zemax format for .bsdf data is a bit different—it needs to be directly obtained from a measurement machine. Since I can’t generate sufficient data with graphs alone, I wanted to ask if there is anyone who has already measured this data in a format suitable for Zemax.
