DIN 55571-1:2014-03 4 1 Scope This standard specifies test methods which can be used to determine the hot tack strength of a sealed seam within prescribed sealing parameters. B

7、y varying the sealing parameters, this method can also be used to determine the conditions for achieving the optimal hot tack strength of such seams. The method can also be used to compare different hot seal media. The measurement results for methods A and B, with regard to the absolute value, canno

8、t be compared directly, as the test assemblies and the sealing conditions differ greatly. Both methods are suitable primarily for flexible packaging materials due to the positioning of the guide pulleys. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions a

12、 Measurand The measurand shall be either the residual seam length or the split seam length. In either case, results shall be given in millimetres. 4 Test assembly 4.1 General The test assembly for determining the hot tack strength comprises a heat sealing device, to which the device for separating t

13、he heat sealed seam is directly connected. Seam separation can be achieved using either a wedge (method A) or suitably arranged guide pulleys (method B). 4.2 Method A (functional principle) The two sample trips are clamped together on one end and fixed to the device prior to testing (see Figure 1).

14、On their other end, the strips are attached to a drop weight. The guide pulley converts the vertical force of the weight into a horizontal force. Before each series of measurements, ensure the pulley rolls smoothly. Place one strip to be sealed over the wedge and the other strip under the wedge. Imm

15、ediately after the sample strips are sealed, release them by opening the clamps and the sealing jaws. The drop weight will pull the freshly sealed seam first along the delay distance S and then against the wedge. The peel force generated at the wedge will then separate the hot sealed seam with more

16、or less strength.

17、tached to one end of both strips. The other end of the strips, laid together, is threaded over pulley 1 (see Figure 2). Before each series of measurements, ensure the pulleys roll smoothly. Take care that the measuring area covers the entire sealed area. After sealing, the sealed sample is pulled ba

18、ck by the weight to pulleys 2 and 3 and is separated there. The delay time is defined by the distance between these pulleys and the sealing jaws. The sample strips remain hanging in the device until the separation action has come to a stop. Key 1 guide pulley 1 5 sealing jaws 2 guide pulley 2 6 clam

20、 specified before the actual measurement. The basis can be derived from the values of a sealing curve comprising cold seam strengths. 5.2 Drop weight Trial runs, which should include all later variations of the sealing parameters used in practice, can be carried out to determine which drop weight is

21、 most suitable. Measurement results will be comparable if the same drop weight is used for a series of measurements. A drop weight is deemed suitable when the sealed seam is only slightly split under optimal sealing parameters, and is not yet fully split under unfavourable sealing parameters. As a r

22、ule, drop weights are selected in steps of 25 g. DIN 55571-1:2014-03 7 5.3 Delay time Measurements are only comparable if they are performed using the same delay time. The delay time can be modified by setting the delay distance S accordingly. A good approximation for the delay time can be achieved

23、using the gravitational acceleration formula. Typical delay times range from 30 ms to 100 ms. Preferably, the delay time should reflect those times found in practice, and can be agreed upon by the contract partners, where appropriate. In all cases, the delay distance and/or the delay time shall be r

24、ecorded in the test report. 6 Test procedure Samples shall be prepared using the material under test as follows: for method A, take 2 strips that are 15 mm wide and 250 mm long; for method B take two single strips that are 400 mm long and 30 mm wide and bond them. Alternatively, take one strip that

25、is 30 mm wide and 800 mm long. The sealing process is started as soon as the samples are placed in the test device. Take care that any preheating of the sample is kept to a minimum to ensure reproducible sealing parameters. The sample is released by opening the sealing jaws and the clamps, and the d

26、rop weight pulls the sample to the point where it is split. After the sample has run along the delay distance, separation takes place at the wedge, in the case of method A, and at the pulleys, in the case of method B. Once the separation process has stopped, the residual seam length or the split sea

27、m length is measured in millimetres. 7 Evaluation The test result shall be the residual seam length or the split seam length, given to an accuracy of at least one millimetre. The initial seam length shall also be stated. The measurement can be performed by the tester using a suitable gauge or callip

28、ers, or using a suitable measurement procedure at the test device itself. Test results (mean of all single measurements) shall be given in millimetres, and the variability (minimum and maximum split seam length or residual seam length) shall also be given. NOTE For quality control purposes it is rec

29、ommended that the mean value be taken from at least three single measurements. For statistical purposes, the number of single measurements should be increased.
