Terminology Definitions3.1 Refer to Terminology F 221 and F 549.4. Summary of Practice4.1 An evaluation

6、 is made by comparing the quality ofcarbonless copy images obtained with and without carboninterleaved and force-aged at elevated temperature and pres-sure conditions. One-time carbon paper samples are inter-leaved into the upper half of a business forms set. The set isforce-aged at elevated conditi

7、ons of temperature and pressurefor three days on both the upper and lower halves. After aging,the carbon samples are removed and the manifold set is imagedat the top where carbon was interleaved and at the bottomwhere there was no carbon paper. The aged images arecompared for intensity, clarity, and

8、 cleanliness.5. Significance and Use5.1 This practice is used primarily to determine the compat-ibility of carbon paper samples with carbonless copy paper inthe same manifold set. That is, to observe if the carbon paperhas or has not had an adverse effect on the carbonless paperimage quality.5.2 Thi

9、s practice can be used as an aid in predicting the fieldperformance of a specific carbon paper grade in an actualcarbonless form of designated composition.5.3 This practice can be used for research and development,production, and quality control purposes.6. Interferences6.1 Different typewriters can

10、 affect the carbonless imagequality.6.2 Different pressures and settings on the same typewritercan affect the image quality.6.3 Platens of varying durometer in the same typewriter canaffect the image quality.6.4 Pressure, temperature, and time during forced-aging canaffect image quality.6.5 Differen

11、t carbon coatings can affect image quality andcompatibility.7. Apparatus7.1 Commercial Electric Typewriter (see Practice F 497).7.2 Paper Cutter (bench model), any size suitable forcutting carbonless copy paper and carbon samples.7.3 Paper Knife, suitable for sampling roll carbon paper.7.4 Parallel

12、Weight Fixtures (see Fig. 1), used to applyuniform pressure to the manifold set at the interleaved andnoninterleaved areas.7.5 Template (see Fig. 2), used for drawing squares to aid inpositioning the parallel weight fixtures.7.6 Drying Oven (constant temperature), equipped withmeans for ensuring ade

Materials8.1 Carbonless Copy Paper Sheets (CF, CFB, and CBSheets).8.2 One-Time Carbon Paper Samples.8.3 Forms Bond Paper, 12 lb (17 by 22 by 500) (45.12g/m2).9. Sampling9.1 Sample the roll or sheet carbon in accordance withMethods D 585.10. Test Specimen and Samp

17、le10.1 Cut the carbonless sheets to 812 by 11 in. (216 by 279mm). The length should be in the machine direction, ifpossible.10.2 Cut the carbon paper samples to 812 by 412 in. (216 by114 mm), with the 412-in. dimension in the machine direction.The number of carbon paper samples will be one less than

18、 thenumber of parts in the manifold set.11. Sample Preparation11.1 Type I Manifold Set Composition (Regular Configura-tion):11.1.1 Assemble a form set consisting of a CB sheet on top(CB side down); two CFB sheets directly below the CB sheet(CF sides up); a CF sheet below the last CFB sheet (CF sideu

19、p); 12-lb bond paper directly below the CF sheet (felt sideup).11.1.2 Staple the test set along the 812-in. (216-mm) width.11.1.3 Using the template, trace squares onto the first sheetof the forms set.11.1.4 On top of the form, clear of the test area, record thecolor, grade, weight, manufacturer, an

20、d other pertinent datarelating to the carbon sample and carbonless paper. Alsoinclude date for start of test.11.1.5 Interleave the carbon sample, coated side down,between the CF and bond papers on the top half of the form setonly (Note 1).NOTE 1If several manifold sets or carbon grades are to be tes

21、tedsimultaneously, repeat steps 11.1.1 through 11.1.4 for each form set.11.2 Type II Manifold Set Composition (Upside DownConfiguration):11.2.1 Assemble a manifold set similar to 11.1.1 but omit-ting the bond paper.11.2.2 Staple and trace squares on the top sheet as describedin 11.1.2, 11.1.3, also

22、record information described in 11.1.4.11.2.3 Interleave the carbon sample coated side up betweenthe CB sheet and the CFB sheet so the carbon coating is nextto the CB coating on the CB sheet (Note 2).NOTE 2If several manifold sets or carbon grades are to be testedsimultaneously, repeat 11.2.1 throug

23、h 11.2.3.12. Procedure12.1 Place two sheets of forms bond paper between eachtest set to ensure no interaction.12.2 Place four sheets of forms bond paper at the top andbottom of the test pack.12.3 Using the template, trace squares onto the top andbottom sheets of the pack. Make sure the squares are s

24、uper-imposed when the top and bottom sheets are in position.12.4 Place one parallel weight fixture into the center of thedrying oven.12.5 Insert the test pack into the drying oven, placing thetraced squares on the bottom of the pack directly over theparallel weight fixture.12.6 Place the second para

25、llel fixture on top of the tracedsquares on the top sheet, thus superimposing both fixtures.Check for alignment.12.7 Place the two 16-lb weights in position on the top twoweight fixtures.12.8 Commence forced aging for 3 days, at 120F.12.9 After aging is completed, remove the weights, weightfixtures

26、and test pack from the oven, and allow the aged formsto come to equilibrium at room temperature (1 to 2 h) withweights removed.12.10 Remove the unattached bond papers from betweenthe copysets and discard.12.11 Remove the interleaved carbon paper samples fromthe copysets and discard.12.12 Type a desi

27、gnated pattern through the center of each2-in. traced square. Record the date, pressure, and settingcontrol as well as manufacturers model of typewriter. Allowapproximately 1 h before comparing images.12.13 Visually compare the post-aging images at top andbottom with each other. Note any differences

28、 in intensity, shadedifference, granularity, sharpness, oil bleed, background dis-coloration, etc.12.14 Repeat 12.11 through 12.13 for each test set agedsimultaneously.13. Interpretation of Results13.1 Performing the test with and without carbon paper inthe same manifold set eliminates the effect of

29、 differencesbetween the carbonless papers. Any difference in image qualitywhere the carbon paper was interleaved is due to the effect ofthe carbon coating. This is a “go-no-go” test and a controlcarbon or carbonless paper is not necessary.14. Precision and Bias14.1 Repeatable ranking order is obtain

30、ed that is reproduc-ible within a laboratory and between laboratories. The test is acomparative test, is subjective, and no quantitative data areintended.15.
