27、erms used in the manufacture of sacks are defined in EN26590-1 for paper sacks and in EN26590-2 for sacks made of thermoplastic flexible film. Most of these terms can also be applied to sacks made of jute/polyolefin fabric. 3.1 woven jute/polyolefin sack a container made of woven jute/polyolefin fab

28、ric, closed at least at one end, possibly in combination with other flexible materials used for the 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 jute/polyolefin

29、 fabric is to be understood. 3.2 ply a tissue of woven jute/polyolefin fabric, 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 jute/polyolefin fabric. The jute yarns shall be in

30、 the weft direction, the polyolefin yarns shall be in the warp direction. 4.1.2 The sack shall be made of one ply or more 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

31、 The closure of the filled sack shall be designed to prevent leakage of the product during transport. 4.1.6 Materials other 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

32、in the construction in which they are used in the sack. 4.2 Dimensions 4.2.1 The dimensions of the 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 o

33、f the sack should be agreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier.EN767:1994 4 BSI 01-2000 4.2.3 The dimensions and the 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 dimens

34、ional designation of the sack shall be in accordance with EN26591-2. NOTEThough EN26591-2 is valid for sacks made of thermoplastic flexible film it can be applied to sacks made of jute/polyolefin fabric. However for some forms of sacks made of jute/polyolefin fabric EN26591-2 cannot be applied. A th

35、ird part of ISO6591 will be prepared by ISO/TC122/SC2, Packaging sacks. This third part will deal with sacks made of woven 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. NOTESpecial a

36、ttention should be paid when mineral batching oils have been used for the production of the jute. 5 Test methods and test requirements 5.1 Sampling 5.1.1 The sampling shall be done in accordance with EN27023. NOTETable1 of EN27023:1992 refers to the selection of units. Table2 of EN27023:1992 refers

37、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. If, as a result of an accident during sampling or testing, resamplin

38、g 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, the procedure agreed shall follow the specification of EN27023 as c

39、losely as possible. 5.2 Conditioning 5.2.1 Before testing all samples shall be conditioned in accordance with EN22233:1992 condition G (temperature+23 C 2 C, relative humidity50% 5%). 5.2.2 The minimum period of conditioning of the samples shall be not less than8h. 5.2.3 The various tests as describ

40、ed 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 If necessary the identification of the various surfaces of

41、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 breaking strength The determination of the breaking strength of t

42、he material of the sack shall be carried out in accordance with ISO5081 using the conditioning requirements of5.2 of this European Standard. The obtained value constitutes the reference from which the acceptability of the UV-resistance test as defined in5.7 is determined. 5.6 Drop test 5.6.1 Test me

43、thod The drop test shall be carried out in accordance with EN27965-1 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 similar material, taking into account type and size of granules etc., to give

44、 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 out on three sacks and shall comprise the following sequence: a) butt dr

45、opping; 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 its flat face and twice on its opposite flat face. 5.6.4 Criteria for passing the drop test After

46、 each drop there shall be no rupture or loss of contents. 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 occurs after the sack has been raised clear of the ground.EN767:1994 BSI 01-2000 5 5.7 UV-resista

The duration of

48、 the test shall be144h (i.e.6days). The test cycle shall be:8 h 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 tested material shall be at least50% of the original breaking strength
