28、dth total width of the film when laid flat, given in millimetres NOTE Films which are wider than 2 O00 mm are usually folded lenghtwise at least once before of the winding on a reel. These folds are retained even when the film is laid out flat, and this may affect test results. Therefore, a distinct

29、ion shall be made between the sample sheets taken from the folds (“fold” area) and sample sheets taken from areas which have not been folded (“flat” area). 3.2 nominal width width declared by the manufacturer in millimeters 3.3 thickness given in micrometers 3.4 nominal thickness thickness declared

30、by the manufacturer in micrometers 3.5 length of the roll largest dimension of the roil in mm 3.6 longitudinal direction of the roll (MD) direction parallel to the length of the roll corresponding to the extrusion direction 3.7 transverse direction of the roll (TD) direction parallel to the width (a

31、t right angles to the length) 4 Plastics materials Agricultural covering film in accordance with the EN Standard is usually manufacturec from: - low density polyethylene (PE-LD), linear low density polyethylene (PE-LLD) and their blends; - ethylene vinyl acetate copolymers (ENAC) and their blends wi
