It is identical with ISO 8226:1990 “Paper and board Measurement of hygroexpansivity Part 2: Hygroe
8、xpansivity up to a maximum relative humidity of 86 %”, published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The international standard has an introduction which is as follows. The measurement of dimensional changes in paper and board with changes in the ambient humidity is necessar
9、y for accurate control of printing and similar processes. The change in length, or hygroexpansivity, is due to stress relaxation of the paper fibres and swelling or contraction of the fibres by absorption or desorption of water. The proportion of the two mechanisms effective to produce hygroexpansiv
10、ity depends upon the upper limit of relative humidity of the environment. For the purpose of this part of ISO 8226 an upper limit of relative humidity of 86 % is imposed to accommodate the effects of stress relaxation on the hygroexpansivity. ISO 8226-1 describes a method for the measurement of hygr
11、oexpansivity at 68 %. The relationship between hygroexpansivity and relative humidity above approximately 68 % is non-linear, partly due to the effects of stress relaxation of the test piece above this humidity. A two-point measurement of hygroexpansivity can be used with humidities greater than 68
12、%, but no attempt should be made to interpolate or correct measurements in the range 33 % r.h. to 84 % r.h. to other relative humidity ranges, by simple arithmetical procedures. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are
13、responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

The purpose of this pa
17、rt of ISO8226 is to cover applications of paper and board intended to be used in high humidity conditions, e.g. as found in tropical countries. It may also be useful in determining the effect of excessive moisture to which paper may be subjected for short periods during some printing processes, e.g.
18、 offset printing. This method is applicable to paper and board generally. It is not, however, suitable for crpe papers and corrugated fibreboard. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO 8226.

21、1985, Paper and board Measurement of hygroexpansivity Part 1: Hygroexpansivity up to a maximum relative humidity of 68 %. 3 Definition For the purposes of this part of ISO 8226, the following definition applies. hygroexpansivity the increase in length relative to the initial length that occurs when
22、the relative humidity with which the test piece of paper or board is in equilibrium is raised from a specified lower relative humidity to a specified higher relative humidity NOTE 1A contraction of the test piece is regarded as negative hygroexpansivity. 4 Principle To ensure that all test pieces be
23、ing tested are brought to the initial relative humidity, from an immediate similar moisture level, this method includes a preliminary conditioning step, at a very low relative humidity. Preliminary conditioning of test pieces at a specified temperature (preferably23C 1 C), under zero load and a rela
24、tive humidity of (22 3)% and then at relative humidities of (33 2)% and (84 2)%. Measurement of the change in length between the latter two relative humidities under a load appropriate to the grammage of the test pieces. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Cabinet, with air circulation, capable of beingmaintained at on
25、e of the temperatures specified in ISO187, preferably23C 1 C. It shall be possible to attain uniform relative humidities of (22 3)%, (33 2) %, (50 5)% and(84 2)% within the whole cabinet and within a short time, for example,30min. Any method which will provide the specified relative humidities withi
26、n the tolerances indicated may be used, for example, the saturated salt solutions given inAnnex A. 5.2 Clamps, or other means for suspending the test pieces vertically in the cabinet (5.1) and provided with some means of ensuring the unloaded test pieces are free from tension. 5.3 Loading weights, f

The width of the test piece shall be at least15mm. For the determination of hygroexpansivity in the machine direc

Clamp, then condition the unloaded test pieces for at leas
32、t30min at the selected temperature (see5.1) and at a relative humidity of (50 5)%. Gently apply the appropriate load in accordance with Table 1 and note the readings on the length-measuring devices (5.6) to the nearest0,01mm. Record this length as l 0 . 7.2 Preliminary conditioning of test pieces Co

Gently apply the appropriate load in accordance with Table 1 and note the readings on the length-measuring devices. Remove the load and repeat the conditioning and measurement until the length under load changes by
34、 no more than0,02% between measurements. NOTE 2These readings are not used in the calculation. 7.3 Measurement of hygroexpansivity Change the conditioning atmosphere to one of(33 2)%, and record the relative humidity value obtained. Condition the unloaded test pieces for at least30min at a relative
35、humidity of (33 2)%. Gently apply the appropriate load in accordance withTable 1 and note the readings on the length-measuring devices. Remove the load and repeat the conditioning and measurement until the length under load changes by no more than0,01mm. Record these to the nearest0,01mm (l 33 ). Co
36、ndition the test pieces in the same way for a minimum of18h in an atmosphere having a relative humidity of (84 2)%. Note the relative humidity value obtained. Record the new readings(l 84 ) of the test pieces to the nearest0,01mm. NOTE 3Shorter conditioning times at a relative humidity of84% may be
37、used by agreement, but this fact should be noted in the test report. 8 Expression of results The hygroexpansivity, X, expressed as a percentage, between33% and 84% relative humidity, is given by the equation where Express the mean result to the nearest0,05%, separately for the machine direction and

44、hereby maintaining a constant relative humidity. Saturated salt solutions can absorb or give up large quantities of water without changing the equilibrium relative humidity, making them suitable for studies of water vapour absorption or desorption. A wide range of relative humidity conditions can be
45、 obtained, using various salt solutions, as reviewed by Young 1) . Saturated salt solutions should be prepared from reagents of recognized analytical grade and distilled water or water of equivalent purity, since the presence of impurities may affect the equilibrium relative humidity. In most cases,
46、 the solution can be prepared by dissolving a quantity of the salt in excess of that required to saturate the solution, at a temperature slightly above the required testing temperature. Because certain salts can change their hydrated form, care should be taken to avoid dissolving at elevated tempera
47、tures. The approximate solubility values at23C and the relative humidities given by salts recommended for use in this part of ISO8226 are listed in Table A.1.
