Most of these t

28、erms can also be applied to sacks made of polyolefin fabric. 3.1 sacks made of woven polyolefin fabric other than polypropylene only a container made of woven polyolefin fabric other than polypropylene only, closed at least at one end, possibly in combination with other flexible materials used for t

29、he liner, to provide the properties required for filling and the goods distribution chain NOTEHereafter where the word “sack” is used in the text of this European Standard, a sack made of woven polyolefin fabric other than polypropylene only is to be understood. 3.2 ply a tissue of polyolefin fabric

30、 other than polypropylene only, forming the walls of a sack 3.3 gusset a fold inserted in the longitudinal edge of a sack 4 General characteristics 4.1 Construction 4.1.1 The sack shall be made of woven polyolefin fabric other than polypropylene only. 4.1.2 The sack shall be made of one ply or more

31、plies and may be equipped with a liner in accordance with prEN1086. 4.1.3 The sack may be flat or gusseted. 4.1.4 The empty sack, laid flat, shall have a rectangular shape. 4.1.5 The closure of the filled sack shall be designed to prevent leakage of the product during transport. 4.1.6 Materials othe

32、r than natural materials used in the manufacture and closure of the sack(inner liner excluded) shall have a UV-resistance in accordance with5.7.3. These materials can be tested in the construction in which they are used in the sack.EN765:1994 4 BSI 01-2000 4.2 Dimensions 4.2.1 The dimensions of the

33、empty sack shall be chosen so that, if necessary, after filling the dimensions of the filled sack comply with the dimensions of the unit load as specified in ISO3676. 4.2.2 The dimensional tolerances of the sack should be agreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier. 4.2.3 The dimensions and t

34、he dimensional tolerances of the sack shall be recorded in the ordering documents. 4.2.4 The description of the dimensions, the method of measuring the dimensions and the dimensional designation of the sack shall be in accordance with EN26591-2. NOTEThough EN26591-2 is valid for sacks made of thermo

35、plastic flexible film it can be applied to sacks made of woven polyolefin fabric. However for some forms of sacks made of woven polyolefin fabric EN26591-2 cannot be applied. A third part of ISO6591 will be prepared by ISO/TC122/SC2, Packaging sacks. This third part will deal with sacks made of wove

36、n fabric. 4.3 Food compatibility Sacks which come in contact with foodstuffs shall meet the legal requirements of the CEN member states which are applicable to them. 5 Test methods and test requirements 5.1 Sampling 5.1.1 The sampling shall be done in accordance with EN27023. NOTETable1 of EN27023:1

37、992 refers to the selection of units. Table2 of EN27023:1992 refers to the selection of sacks out of each selected unit. 5.1.2 The sampling shall be done on the date the empty sacks are ready for dispatch by the supplier. 5.1.3 If resampling is necessary it shall be done in accordance with EN27023.

38、If, as a result of an accident during sampling or testing, resampling is necessary, a new sample shall be taken following the procedure specified in EN27023. Selection may then, however, be made from the same units as before unless agreed otherwise. If, for any other reason, resampling is necessary,

39、 the procedure agreed shall follow the specifications of EN27023 as closely as possible. 5.2 Conditioning 5.2.1 Before testing all samples shall be conditioned in accordance with EN22233:1992 conditionG(temperature+23 C 2 C, relative humidity50% 5%). 5.2.2 The period of conditioning of the samples s

40、hall be not less than8h. 5.2.3 The various tests as described shall be carried out in the same atmospheric conditions as used for conditioning, see5.2.1, or, if not possible, the tests shall commence within10min after removing the samples from the conditioning atmosphere. 5.3 Surface identification

41、If necessary the identification of the various surfaces of the filled sacks when testing shall be as given in EN22206. 5.4 Date of completion of tests All tests shall be completed within four weeks after the date the empty sacks are ready for dispatch by the supplier. 5.5 Determination of the breaki

42、ng strength The determination of the breaking strength of the material of the sacks shall be carried out in accordance with ISO5081 using the conditioning requirements of5.2 of this European Standard. The obtained value will constitute the reference from which the acceptability of the UV-resistance

43、test as defined in5.7 will be determined. 5.6 Drop test 5.6.1 Test method The drop test shall be carried out in accordance with EN27965-1:1992 using the constant drop height method. 5.6.2 Filling of the sacks The sacks shall be filled with the intended commodity or, if this is not possible, with sim

44、ilar material, taking into account type and size of granules etc., to give the same degree of filling. The mass of the filling material shall be within 0,2%of that of the nominal mass of the intended contents of the sack. 5.6.3 Test procedure 5.6.3.1 Drop test sequence The drop test shall be carried

45、 out on three sacks and shall comprise the following sequence: a) butt dropping; b) flat dropping. 5.6.3.2 Butt dropping The sack shall be dropped from a height of1,20m on the bottom of the sack. 5.6.3.3 Flat dropping The sack shall be dropped from a height of1,60m, twice on one flat face and twice

46、on the opposite flat face. 5.6.4 Criteria for passing the drop test After each drop there shall be no rupture or loss of contents.EN765:1994 BSI 01-2000 5 A slight discharge e.g.from closures or stitch holes, upon impact shall not be considered a failure of the sack provided that no further leakage

47、occurs after the sack has been raised clear of the ground. 5.7 UV-resistance test 5.7.1 Test method The determination of the influence of UV-radiation and weathering on the breaking strength of polyolefin fabric shall be carried out in accordance with ASTM G53-88. 5.7.2 Test procedure The test shall

48、 be carried out with fluorescent UV-lamp type B. The duration of the test shall be144hours (i.e.6days). The test cycle shall be8h at+60 C with UV-radiation alternating with4h at+50 C with condensation. 5.7.3 Criteria for passing the UV-resistance test After the test the breaking strength of the test

49、ed material shall be at least50%of the original breaking strength. 6 Marking The marking of the sack with the suppliers identification is voluntary. 7 Test report The test report shall include a statement that all tests have been carried out in accordance with this European Standard and shall include at least the following information: a) name and address of the supplier; b) number of the contract or order reference; c) date, place and description of the sampling; of this European Standard; d) description, of the sacks
