This testspecification will establish (1) the average puncture force and(2) a minimum value of puncture force that container materi-al(s) must wit

4、hstand when following the test procedure de-scribed in Section 6. This specification shall be applicable toregions of uniform material and thickness, and needle contactareas as defined in 3.1.7 and 3.1.9. Materials meeting theperformance requirements of Section 4 will be considered“puncture resistan

5、t.” This specification will not evaluate theconstruction of, or provide pass/fail criteria for, a sharpscontainer.1.2 This specification provides a test procedure to determineif all regions of one container meet the material punctureresistance requirements. It does not define the number ofadditional

25、h Section 6, the average puncture force to pen-etrate material test specimens representing any regions ofuniform material and thickness and sharps-contact areas, asdefined in Section 3, shall not be less than 3.4 lbf (15 N), withno one value from any region of material tested less than 2.8lbf (12.5

26、N).4.2 Layered Materials and LinersIf a container is de-signed to use nonlaminated layers of material in sharps-contactareas, the combination of these layered materials must betested as configured in actual use, and meet the punctureresistance specification of this standard to be deemed punctureresi

If a container is designed to use a removable linerenclosed by the container, the material used in the removableliner must meet the puncture resistance specification of thisstandard to be deemed puncture resistant.For example, layered materials must be tested with the samespacing as configure

28、d in the actual application.5. Sampling and Specimen Preparation5.1 Direct Versus Indirect MethodEither of two testingprocedures may be used to demonstrate that the material ispuncture resistant under this specification. The direct method isto be used if the material being evaluated has unknownchara

29、cteristics. The indirect method may be used only if thematerial being evaluated has been previously characterized bya puncture force versus thickness relationship (see 7.2.2).5.1.1 Direct Method Specimen Preparation:5.1.1.1 One sharps container shall be selected at random torepresent the material(s)

30、 to be tested. If it is not possible toobtain the required number of test specimens from onecontainer, additional randomly selected containers shall besampled until the required number of test specimens is ob-tained.5.1.1.2 Identify each region of uniform material and thick-ness (see 3.1.7 and 3.1.9

31、). Mark each region with a grid of 1-in.(25.4-mm) squares until the entire region has been covered. Ifit is not possible to fit a 1-in. grid over certain areas of thecontainer, a smaller grid may be used; however, it shall be noless than 0.5 in. (12.7 mm) on a side.5.1.1.3 Number every square of the

32、 grid so that each regionof uniform material and thickness has consecutive numbers,starting with No. 1 in each region.5.1.1.4 Using a random-number generator or table, select aquantity of 1-in. (or 0.5-in.) square specimens equal to 10 % ofthe surface area of each region of the container as defined

33、in3.1.7 or no less than twelve specimens from each region. If atleast twelve specimens cannot be obtained from one container,refer to 5.1.1.1. Remove the specimens identified by therandom number selection from each region of the test con-tainer. Mark the test specimen as it is removed to identify th

34、einside of the container, as the puncture is required from theinside of the container outward.5.1.1.5 Measure, mark, and record the thickness at thecenter of each selected test specimen using a thickness-measuring device capable of measuring in 0.001-in. (0.025-mm) increments, with an accuracy of 2

35、% of the thicknessmeasured, for example, a ball micrometer with a ball diameterof 0.06 to 0.125 in. (1.6 to 3.2 mm). If the test specimenincludes a radius, corner, edge, or other design feature, find theminimum thickness and mark the location, if not in the centerof the specimen. Identify the specim

36、en as to material andthickness represented.5.1.1.6 Proceed to Section 6.5.1.2 Indirect Method Specimen Preparation:5.1.2.1 Obtain fabricated or molded test specimens (referredto as plaques within the indirect section) representing eachmaterial, range of thickness, and equivalent manufacturingprocess

37、 used to represent the sharps container. These plaqueswill not be from the container itself, but will be used tocorrelate the measured thickness of an actual container to thepuncture resistance value of plaques having the same charac-teristics.5.1.2.2 Produce a minimum of nine test plaques to repres

38、enta minimum of four different thicknesses that span the range ofthicknesses expected for each region of uniform material andthickness of the representative container. Select 9 test plaquesF 2132 01 (2008)2from a minimum of 4 thickness ranges for a minimum of 36specimens. The size of each prepared p

39、laque is to be deter-mined by 5.1.1.2.5.1.2.3 Measure and record the thickness at the center ofeach selected test plaque, using the same thickness measuringdevice as in 5.1.1.5, and identify the plaque as to material andthickness represented.5.1.2.4 Proceed to Section 6.6. Puncture Test Procedure6.1

40、 Conditioning:6.1.1 Condition all test specimens at 23 6 2C for 24 hbefore testing, unless the material is hydrophilic, requiring, inaddition, a 50 6 5 % relative humidity.6.1.2 Conduct tests under the same standard laboratoryconditions as that used for conditioning.6.2 Apparatus Requirements:6.2.1

41、Testing Machineany force-generating device ca-pable of operating a movable member at a constant rate ofmotion. The testing machine shall be calibrated according tothe manufacturers instructions.6.2.2 Crosshead Speed Controla drive mechanism forimparting to the movable member of the testing machine a

42、uniform, controlled velocity of 4 in./min (100 mm/min) withrespect to the fixed member.6.2.3 Load Indicatora load-indicating mechanism shallbe capable of measuring and recording force with an accuracyof 61 % of the measured test force.6.2.4 Representative Sharp Objectregular wall and bevel,Luer-type

43、 hypodermic needle, 21 gage by 1 in. (0.8 by 25.4mm) that meets ISO Standards 7864 and 594.6.2.5 Needle Holderany Luer-type fitting or other suitableholder that will attach the needle securely to the testingmachine or load indicator at an angle of 90 6 5 with respectto the test specimen.6.2.6 Specim

44、en Supporta block of any suitably rigidmaterial (aluminum, steel, wood, and so forth) conforming tothe dimensions of the block shown in Fig. 1.6.2.7 Puncture Sensing Deviceany device capable ofsensing when the needle tip just penetrates (exits) the oppositeside of the test specimen from the side whi

45、ch it enters, and,when used in conjunction with the load indicator, records theforce applied to the needle as its tip just penetrates (exits) thespecimen. Any mechanism or materials used to sense punctureshall not influence the test results.NOTE 1A suitable means of sensing puncture is to place a pi

46、ece ofthin metal foil secured with suitable adhesive on the side of the testspecimen corresponding to the outside of the container. The foil is wiredsuch that an event marker will indicate, on the load indicator, the forcebeing applied to the needle when it just penetrates the sample and touchesthe

47、metal foil. The foil must be in intimate contact with the test specimen(that is, no air bubbles). Suggested foil is 0.001-in.-thick aluminum foodwrap; suggested adhesive is household glue stick.6.3 Puncture Test:6.3.1 Prepare the testing machine and specimen support andset the crosshead speed veloci

48、ty to 4 in./min (100 mm/min).6.3.2 Affix a new needle to the needle holder. Zero the loadindicator to account for the weight of the holder and the needle.6.3.3 Secure the test specimen on the specimen support sothat the surface of the specimen corresponding to the insidesurface of the container (if

49、applicable) is facing toward, and isperpendicular to, the needle. Any securing mechanism used toaffix the specimen to the support shall not influence the testresults. The test specimen, as identified in 5.1.1.5, shall beplaced over the hole of the specimen support, with the area tobe punctured directly under the needle. Do not alter or distortthe configuration of the specimen. If the material is layered ora liner, refer to 4.2.6.3.4 Allow sufficient space between the needle and the testspecimen so that the movable member can attain the specifiedcr
