A number in parenthe

2、ses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers oriented polypropylene (OPP)film in the thickness range from 10 to 75 m 0.4 to 3.0 mils.1.2 The film can contain colorants, s

3、tabilizers, or otheradditives, and can be coated for the improvement of perfor-mance properties (heat sealability, gas permeability, and soforth).1.3 The film can be annealed (heat-set) to reduce theunrestrained linear shrinkage and shrink tension on exposure toheat.1.4 The values stated in SI units

4、 are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in brackets are for information only.1.5 The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to thetest methods portion, Section 7, of this specification: Thisstandard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,if any, associated with it

There shall be no other visibledefects such as holes, tears, or blisters. The edges shall be freeof nicks and cuts visible to the naked eye.

19、 There shall be novisible evidence of damage from shipping.4.3 BlockingThe film shall not be blocked excessively.The limits for permissible blocking shall be as agreed uponbetween the seller and the purchaser.4.4 ThicknessAverage thickness shall be within 610 % ofthe nominal value.4.5 Package YieldP

20、ackage yield shall be within the fol-lowing ranges:Deviation from nominal, %Any one roll 610Up to 25 rolls 61025 to 100 rolls 66Above 100 rolls 634.6 WidthAverage width shall be within 3 + 19 mm0.12 + 0.75 in. of nominal.4.7 Length and SplicesTo be agreed upon between theseller and the purchaser.4.8

22、haracterization of commercial PP film, thisspecification provides a cell classification based on six perfor-mance parameters, as defined in Table 1. Thus, each film ischaracterized by a code designation consisting of a six-digitnumber, preceded by the acronym OPP-U, OPP-X, or OPP-B.NOTE 2An example

23、of this code designation would be OPP-B101020,which identifies an untreated balanced film with high gloss and lowfriction.6.

Certification9.1 When agreed upon in writing by the purchaser and theseller, a certification shall

32、be made on the basis of acceptanceof the material. This shall consist of a copy of the manufac-turers test report or a statement by the seller, accompanied bya copy of the test results, that the material has been sampled,tested, and inspected in accordance with the provisions of thisspecification. E
