2、pproved October 16, 2015American National Standards Institute, Inc.Approval of an American National Standard requires review by ANSI that therequirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval havebeen met by the standards developer.Consensus is established when, in the judgemen
3、t of the ANSI Board ofStandards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly andmaterially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more thana simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that allviews and objections be considered, and that a concerted
4、 effort be madetowards their resolution.The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; theirexistence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approvedthe standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or usingproducts, processes, or procedures not confo
5、rming to the standards.The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards andwill in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American NationalStandard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue aninterpretation of an American National Standard in the nam
6、e of the AmericanNational Standards Institute. Requests for interpretations should beaddressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on the titlepage of this standard.CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised orwithdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American Nat

15、 Card Durability/Service Life Standard is to provide a uniformmeans of predicting the service life of an ID card for a specific application.This standard shall be used to determine the suitability of a card for a particular appli-cation.This standard was developed by Task Group B10 of Accredited Sta

The location of the area being tested. 2. The thickness of the combined layers being removed. The card must
25、have 90-degree peel tests completed to determine this. 3. If applicable, the area(s) of card feature(s) that have lower peel strength than the surrounding areas of the card. In order to determine the 90-degree peel requirements for the tested card: 1. Find the Card Application Profile Category and a
26、ssociated base peel requirement (see table 4). 2. Measure the thickness of the removed layer(s) from the tested card. 3. If applicable, calculate the contiguous area of any special feature areas with low adhesion values. 4. Determine the correction factor for the card area(s) of interest from the co
27、rrection factor tables (see tables 5 and 6). 5. The base peel requirement is multiplied by the correction factor to get the requirement for the area of the card being tested. The same card may have more than one requirement, depending upon the card construction. (Refer to annex B for the 90-degree p
