1、Designation: F1351 96 (Reapproved 2013)Standard Practice forDetermination of the Effect of Hard Creasing Paper onImages Produced by Business Imaging Systems1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1351; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adopt

2、ion or, in the case of 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 practice describes a procedure for hard creasingpaper in a uniform a

3、nd reproducible manner.1.2 The crease is positioned across the image and theamount of image degradion is determined.1.3 The effect of creasing on the paper surface can also bedetermined.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathe

4、maticalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.5 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 establish appro-priate safety and hea

Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 hard-creasepaper folded 180 (back to back, face toface, long grain, short grain) with a uniform force applied tothe fold.4. Summary of Practice4.1 This practice describes a mechanical device that makesit possible t

7、o uniformly hard-crease samples of paper so thatcomparative tests may be performed on the samples. Compari-son may be made with a control sample.4.2 This practice also provides a means of locating thecrease over a line of copy.4.3 The image may be produced by any of the severalbusiness imaging syste

8、ms including copiers, printers,typewriters, etc.5. Significance and Use5.1 As a comparative test, this practice can be used todetermine the damage caused by creasing paper, that is,damage to paper, coatings or images affixed to the paper andthe loss of image quality and legibility that can result fr

9、omcreasing.6. Interference6.1 The accuracy with which the crease is located on thepaper, that is, over an image area, is dependent on operator skilland the consistency with which the samples are prepared.6.2 Sample to sample variations in caliper, moisture content,grain direction, etc., influence th

10、e damage caused by creasing.6.3 Similarly, using imaged paper samples, the imagingmaterial, the method of application, aging, as well as thesubstrate, may influence crease damage and the subsequentloss of image legibility.6.4 This practice is useful for papers of basis weightsnormally used for offic

11、e correspondence. Heavy weight or stiffpapers may need special handling at the discretion of theperson conducting the test.7. Apparatus7.1 Fixture, hard-crease, see Fig. 1.7.2 Paper Cutting Board.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F05 on BusinessImaging Products and is the di

Procedure8.1 Because the moisture content of paper effects thecreasability of paper, conduct the test in a room conditionedaccording to Practice D685. If such a room is not available,conduct the tests in a room

15、with a stable temperature andhumidity.8.2 Test specimens are any imaged paper produced by abusiness imaging system such as copiers, printers, typewriters,etc. Position the image so that it will be creased in the mannerthat will simulate end use.8.3 Cut four sheets from each sample of paper to be tes

16、ted,all with dimensions 812 by 812 in. (216 by 216 mm) in themachine direction and then cut four in the cross direction.Identify machine direction (duplicate sets of each grain direc-tion). Small images require cutting so as to locate the image oncrease.8.4 Determine and identify the “front,” “back,

17、” imaged,unimaged, wire, or felt side and grain direction of control andthe sample sheets using Test Methods D528 and D5039.8.5 Condition the sheets for a minimum of 24 h in the testroom.8.6 Conduct duplicate tests in each direction and on eachside of the sheet.8.7 Bend, but do not fold, the test pi

18、ece so that the creasewill be parallel to the machine direction and the image will faceinward.8.8 With moderate speed (approximately 1 ft/s) (3 m/s) rollthe 2 kg weight so that it creases the paper. See Appendix.Place the image so as to be within the crease.8.9 Repeat test with duplicate test piece.

19、8.10 Bend sample as in 8.7 but with the image outward andrepeat 8.8 and 8.9.8.11 Repeat 8.7 through 8.10 with the test piece positionedso that the crease is perpendicular to the machine direction.9. Interpretation of Results9.1 Compare samples and control sheets that have beenhard-creased front to f

20、ront, back to back, in the machinedirection and the cross direction.9.2 Comparisons can be made by visual observation, report-ing the damage done by hard-creasing to coatings, images orsubstrate. A hand lens of approximately 10 may be used toaid in the examination. It may be appropriate to rub the i

21、mageto determine if it has been loosened. Bar code, OCR, or MICRreaders can be used in special cases.10. Report10.1 Report the following information:10.1.1 The nature of the image or paper degradion and aranking order established when two or more samples are tested.11. Keywords11.1 image permanence-

(6.35 mm) diameterby

23、 234 in. (6.99 mm) height.X1.1.2 An inclined plane such as a piece of aluminum orsteel plate with a pitch of 2 in. (5.08 mm) per 38 in. (96.52mm).X1.2 From a standing start, the weight will pass from marks1212 to 2438 in. (31.8 to 61.9 mm) from the starting point(approximately 1 ft (0.30 m) in appro

24、ximately 1 s.X1.3 Thus if the bent sample is placed on the inclined planeapproximately 1212 in. (31.8 mm) from the starting point andthe weight is allowed to roll freely, it will crease the specimenat a speed of approximately 1 ft/s (0.30 m/s) as recommendedin 8.7.ASTM International takes no positio
