1、Designation: D 4917 97 (Reapproved 2007)An American National StandardStandard Test Method forCoefficient of Static and Kinetic Friction of UncoatedWriting and Printing Paper by Use of the Horizontal PlaneMethod1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4917; the number immediately follow
2、ing the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method
3、describes a horizontal plane procedurefor the determination of the coefficient of static and kineticfriction of paper measured when sliding against itself.1.2 Although this test method is basic in concept, theprecision statement has been developed on uncoated writingand printing papers. While the us
4、e of this test method isrecommended for those grades only, it may be used with othertypes of papers giving specific attention to special papercharacteristics and with the understanding that the precisionand bias may not be the same.1.3 The horizontal instrument requires some means ofmovement of the
5、specimen in relation to the surface uponwhich it rests. The coefficient of friction (COF) is measureddirectly from the resistance to tangential motion and theapplied weight pressing two pieces of paper together.1.4 Static COF relates to the force required to initiatemovement between two surfaces whi
6、le kinetic COF relates tothe force required to cause continuation of the movement atuniform speed.1.5 An inclined plane method is described in Test MethodD 4918, which gives similar results for static COF but TestMethod D 4918 cannot be used for the determination of kineticCOF. The choice of approac
7、h depends on the equipmentavailable and the means of measurement.1.6 The determination of this characteristic for corrugatedand solid fiberboard is described in Test Methods D 4521 andD 3247. These test methods differ in that in Test MethodsD 4521 and D 3247, the two specimens are allowed to slipupo
8、n one another three times before the force measurement isdetermined, while in this test method the determination is madeon the first slip.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to
9、establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Terminology3.1 DefinitionsDefinitions shall be in accordance withTerminology D 1968 and the Dictionary of Paper.44. Summary of Test Method4.1 One specimen of the paper
16、 sample is clamped to ahorizontal plane surface, the other to a specimen sled. The sledis pulled across the surface, or alternatively, the plane is pulledunder the stationary sled by mechanical means, and the forcerequired to do so is measured. The coefficients of both staticand kinetic friction can
17、 be determined.5. Significance and Use5.1 The coefficient of friction of printing and writing papersis an indicator of the ease with which the top or bottom sheetof a stack of paper will slide across the succeeding sheet, suchas occurs on the infeed of a printing press or the sheet transportinto a c
18、opier machine. A minimum coefficient of friction isrequired to prevent double-feeding of any sheets.5.2 Since each sheet is removed from the stack only once, asingle slide of each pair of specimens is performed and thevalue recorded.6. Apparatus (see Fig. 1)6.1 Horizontal Plane and Supporting BaseA
19、horizontalplane surface of a smooth, incompressible materialmetal,hardwood, plate glass, or plastichaving a width at least 25mm (1 in.) wider than the specimen sled (see 6.2). The plane ismounted on a supporting base provided with means of levelingin two directions.Aconstant rate-of-motion tester, a
20、s describedin Test Method D 828, has also been found suitable. If this typeof tester is used, the horizontal plane and supporting base areone and the same.6.2 Specimen SledA sled or specimen block made of anincompressible material with a rubber-faced lower surface orsuch material with a COF signific
21、antly higher than the materialbeing tested. A63.5-mm (2.5-in.) square metal block weighing200 6 5 g has been found satisfactory. A means for clampingthe specimen to the sled may be provided, but is not necessaryif the lower surface is faced with 3-mm (18-in.) thick softrubber. A means for fastening
22、the sled to the force measuringdevice, such as a wire cable or nylon filament line, is required.Care should be taken in selecting a wire cable or nylon filamentline to make certain that its ability to stretch does not interferewith the measurement of force.6.3 Mechanical Power UnitProviding a means
23、for mov-ing the specimen sled horizontally along the plane surface, orthe plane surface under the specimen sled at a uniform speed of150 6 30 mm/min (0.5 6 0.1 ft/min). A constant rate-of-motion tester equipped with a load cell in its upper crossheadand a constant rate-of-motion lower crosshead has
24、been foundsatisfactory (Test Method D 828).6.4 Force Measuring DeviceMeans for measuring theforce required to move or restrain the specimen sled to thenearest 5 gf (0.01 lbf). A force gage or the load cell of aconstant rate-of-motion tester have both been found suitable(Test Method D 828).6.5 Paper

31、5.2.1 With Grain Direction COFLift off a stack of sevenconsecutive sheets, identify the machine direction and the felt(or top) side of the top sheet, and cut two specimens from eachsheet: one 100 by 215 mm (4 by 8.5 in.) and the other 75 by130 mm (3 by 5 in.). Cut the specimens so that the machinedi
32、rection is parallel to the longer dimension. Discard the topsheet from each stack and test five pairs of specimens. Eachpair is from the same sheet. Discard the bottom sheets.7.5.2.2 Across Grain Direction COFFollow directionsgiven in 7.5.2.1 except cut the specimens so that the machinedirection is
33、parallel to the shorter dimension. Discard the topsheet from each stack and test five pairs of specimens. Eachpair is from the same sheet. Discard the bottom sheets.8. Procedure8.1 Place the horizontal plane and its base on a vibration-free table and level it, or set up a constant rate-of-motion tes
34、terin accordance with its instructions for coefficient of frictiondetermination. If necessary, adjust the force measuring deviceto zero.8.2 With Grain Direction COF:8.2.1 Select the specimens cut with the grain directionparallel to the long dimension (see 7.5.1.1 or 7.5.2.1).8.2.2 Place the longer o
35、f each specimen pair on the hori-zontal plane with the top (felt) side upward and clamp orotherwise attach the end farthest from the force measuringdevice to the plane.8.2.3 Place the smaller specimen on top of the larger withthe wire side facing down, and set the rubber-faced sled lightlyatop it, o
36、r attach the smaller specimen to the sled and positionthe sled atop the larger specimen.8.2.4 Attach the cable from the power unit or force gage tothe sled.8.2.5 Start the power unit, making sure the cable remainstaut as the drive takes up the load. No immediate relativemotion may take place between
37、 the sled and the plane until thepull on the sled is equal to, or exceeds, the static frictional forceacting at the contact surfaces. Record this initial, maximumreading, or note the maximum peak recorded on the strip chartrecorder of the constant rate-of-motion tester, as the forcecomponent of the
38、coefficient of static friction.8.2.6 Continue the motion of the two specimens for adistance of about 130 mm (5 in.). Record the average forcereading during this period, or obtain the average force byintegrating the recorded trace on the strip chart recorder of theconstant rate-of-motion tester, as t
39、he force component of thecoefficient of kinetic friction.8.2.7 After the sled has traveled the required distance, stopthe power unit, remove the specimens, and return the apparatusto the starting positions. Continue to test the remainingspecimen pairs in identical fashion. No specimen pairs shall be
40、tested more than once unless such tests constitute one of thevariables to be studied.8.3 Across Grain Direction COFSelect the set of speci-mens cut with the grain direction parallel to the short dimen-sion (see 7.5.1.2 or 7.5.2.2).

Precision and Bias11.1 Repeatability5The repeatability standard deviationof the procedure in this test method
44、is approximately 0.007 forthe coefficient of static friction and 0.005 for the coefficient ofkinetic friction. The corresponding 95 % repeatability limitsare approximately 0.019 and 0.014, respectively. These esti-mates of repeatability were developed on writing papers inaccordance with Specificatio
45、n D 3460 having coefficients ofstatic friction in the range from 0.40 to 0.70. The repeatabilityfor other uncoated writing and printing papers may be larger orsmaller than the values stated here.11.2 Reproducibility An estimate of the reproducibilitystandard deviation and the 95 % reproducibility li
46、mits is underdevelopment.11.3 BiasNo statement about bias of the procedure in thistest method is made, because the values measured for static andkinetic coefficient of friction are defined based on the specifictesting conditions stated in the test method.12.
