2、f revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method compares the abrasion resistance ofsimilar types of stretch wrap films.1.2 Th
3、is 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 establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use4.1 This test method is intended to provide only a compara-tive procedure for evaluating unknown films against a standardor control film whose performance has been defined asadequate in actual field conditions.4.2 This test met
7、hod leaves open to the discretion of the userseveral key factors, including film wrap method, abrasionsurfaces, and definition of failure, so that it can be tailored toan individual users distribution parameters.4.3 This test method is meant to simulate, in an acceleratedmode, the abrasion that an o
8、uter wrapping of film mightencounter in a typical shipping and distribution environment.4.4 This is a test procedure that allows the user to makerelative comparisons of the abrasion resistance of a film, suchas that the film is containing a palletized load while that loadis undergoing vibration.5. E
9、quipment and Preparation5.1 Load Wrapping ApparatusA machine or apparatus towrap the test load. The method of application is preferably asnear as possible to that used in an actual production situation(for example, stretch wrapper or manual wrapping unit).5.2 Vertical Vibration Table, preferably equ
10、ipped with thecapability of varying the frequency or amplitude, or both, ofvibration in a controlled fashion and maintaining a set vibrationmode.5.3 Upright SupportsRigid upright supports that can bebolted or secured otherwise to the vibration table. Thesesupports shall also be adjusted laterally so
11、 as to confine the testload and prevent excessive side to side movement or toppling.5.4 Abrasive Surfaces, attached to the inner faces of uprightsupports so that the wrapped test load comes into contact withand abrades against this surface during the test sequence.5.4.1 The abrasive surface can be c
12、omposed of any one of avariety of possible substances, chosen at the users discretion,to simulate the actual abrasive surfaces that might be encoun-tered in the actual distribution cycle.

16、table input amplitudes. This is the most accurate way ofdetermining the resonant frequency of the test load.6. Procedure6.1 Prepare two single columns of units to be wrapped.6.2 Wrap each single column of units individually using themethod to be used under normal conditions.6.3 If other stretch leve
17、ls are not defined in the productionsituation, the standard levels of stretch film application of 50,100, or 150 % stretch may be used.6.4 If it is desired to simulate a two-column-high stackingmode, a piece of corrugated or solid fiber slip sheet material orplastic sheet can be placed on top of the
18、 first columns, and asecond column can be stacked on top of the first.6.5 Set the wrapped test column(s) on the vibration tableand confine on all sides with an upright support such that therough surface face is facing the test columns. Set the supportssufficiently close in to prevent toppling of the
19、 columns but notclose enough to restrict the free movement response to vibra-tion.6.6 Perform a frequency sweep, and determine the resonantfrequency of the entire wrapped test load. An accelerometerplaced on top of the load monitored with a chart recorder or astorage oscilloscope is the most precise
20、 method of determiningthe resonant frequency. As an alternative, visual inspection cangenerally be used to determine the resonant frequency withsufficient accuracy. Further details of this resonance search testcan be found in Test Methods D999, Method C. Perform theremainder of the test at the reson
21、ant vibration frequency.6.7 Vibrate the wrapped test column on the vibration appa-ratus for a predetermined total time (for example, 60 min). Atselected intervals during the test (for example, 10 or 15 min),stop the apparatus and inspect the wrap on the load on all sidesfor signs of abrasion, holes,
22、 or tears, and record the observa-tion. Inspect and measure the abrasion at the top, center, andbottom of the column, and record the position of any visibleabrasion. Continue the test for the predetermined total testtimes or until the film reaches failure.6.8 Record the amount of damage at the end o
