2、ved 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 judgement of

3、 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 eff

16、erwise specified, the environment for the test specified within this Test Method Standard shall be 23C 3C (73F 5F) and 40% to 60% relative humidity. Condition test cards at the designated temperature and humidity for a period of 24 hours before testing. Cards shall be free of any contamination that

17、could affect test results. Examples include, but are not limited to finger oils, rubber band residue and particles from card processing. Unless otherwise specified, a default tolerance of + 5% shall be applied to the quantity values given to specify the characteristics of the test equipment (e.g. li

18、near dimensions) and the test method procedures (e.g., test equipment adjustment). INCITS 322-2015 4 4 DEFINITIONS 4.1 Overlay film (a.k.a. - laminating film): A film (typically clear) used to make the outer surfaces of cards. 4.2 Heat transfer film (a.k.a. - heat transfer foil): A thin resinous lay

19、er transferred from a carrier (typically polyester) by thermal means. 4.3 Flexure: The cyclical bending of the card. 4.4 Core film layers: Internal structural layers which constitute the core stock. 4.5 ID-1 Card: The size of a card specified in ANSI/ISO/IEC 7810. 4.6 Card structure: The composite o

20、f all the components of any identification card including but not limited to: plastic polymers adhesives inks and coatings dye diffusion thermal transfer media recording media (magnetic, IC, optical etc.) security feature components protective foils laminates 4.7 Degradation: Unfavorable loss of car

21、d properties including, but not limited to fading, discoloration and breakdown of physical properties. 4.8 Card printed information: Constitutes both fixed print graphics/text (typically by a printing ink process) and variable imaging graphics/text (typically by dye diffusion, resin thermal transfer

22、 technology, etc.). 4.9 Card orientation: The two orientations of the card shall be referred to as Axis A and Axis B as shown in Figure 11. 4.10 Card fracture: A crack or break in the card where the depth appears to be at least 1/3 of the card thickness. INCITS 322-2015 5 5 TEST METHODS 5.1 Peel Str

23、ength - 90 peel angle 5.1.1 Significance and Use This test method can be used to determine the bond strength between layers of a card. Bond strength between card layers is a function of fabrication process conditions and construction materials. 5.1.2 Apparatus Sharp cutting instrument Pressure sensi

24、tive adhesive filament (fiber reinforced) tape or suitable clamp Tensile tester with suitable chart recorder or equivalent Gripping device Alignment plate (flat rigid plate): 51 mm x 86 mm x 3,2 mm thick (2.0 in x 3.375 in x 0.125 in thick) Double-sided pressure sensitive adhesive tape Film thicknes

25、s gauge 0.01 mm (0.0005 in) resolution 5.1.3 Procedure Cut or score through the layer of the card into test width section(s), as shown in Figure 1. Where possible, choose a section with ink coverage or other areas of potentially weak bond strength. If initial separation of layers is not possible, th

26、e peel test shall be attempted from the opposite direction. If separation is not possible from both directions, report the result as inability to separate layers. Measure the test strip width to 0,1 mm (0.004 inch) accuracy. NOTES 1) It is acceptable to construct the test card with the means to easi

27、ly prepare the test card for the peel strength test. 2) The number of 10 mm (0.4 inch) test strips can be up to four and located anywhere on the card surface. 3) The adhesive strength between the filament tape and the layer being peeled must be greater than the bond strength of the layers being sepa

28、rated. 4) It is acceptable to cut through the card in order to insure that the layer of interest has been separated from the card structure. Affix the test sample to the alignment plate by means of double-sided pressure sensitive adhesive tape or other means. The adhesive strength between the test s

29、ample and the alignment plate shall be greater than bond strength between the card layers. Apply the clamp or filament tape to the peeled back edge of one layer as shown in Figure 2. Place the prepared card in the tensile tester fixture as shown in Figure 5. Operate the tensile tester according to t

30、he manufacturers instructions at 300 mm/minute (11.8 inches/minute) to determine the peel strength in Newtons per millimeter (pounds force per inch). Record the peel minimum peel strength for all sections of the peel: Exclude the first 5 mm (0.2 inches) and any features less than 0,5 mm (0.02 inches

31、) in length (spikes) from consideration. Record the minimum peel strength(s) for the section tested If a test strip starts tearing within the 5 mm (0.2 inches) exclusion area (see above), then the peel test shall be attempted from the opposite direction. If film tears occur from both directions, rep

32、ort the result as film tear. If a test strip tears after the 5 mm (0.2 inches) exclusion area, record the minimum peel strength(s) as per above in the areas before the tearing started, along with the location of the card where the tear started. Record the thickness of the material peeled off the car

Twelve sets of samples were run by four different appraisers in the same laboratory. 5.1.5.2.1 Test Results The precision information given below in the units of measurement (lbf/in) is for the comparison of twelve test results, each of which is the average of three test determinations. 5.1.5.2

The heat transfer film may be applied by thermal print head, heated roller or hot stamp die. This test may

45、 be used to establish how much heat transfer film is removed from the card substrate with the specified pressure sensitive tape. 5.2.1 Significance and Use This test method may be used to determine the relative adhesion between the applied heat transfer film layers and the base card. Relative adhesi

46、on of the heat transfer film layer is a function of heat transfer process conditions, the film itself and/or the base cards surface finish, surface contamination etc. 5.2.2 Apparatus Cutting tool Sharp razor blade or cutting device having a cutting edge angle between 15 and 30 that will either make

47、a single cut or several parallel cuts at the same time, spaced 2 mm (0.079 in) apart. The cutting edge needs to be in good condition. (A cross cutting tool with six cutting edges 2 mm (0.079 in) apart is recommended. The cross cutting tool allows for six parallel cuts in one stroke, improving the co

48、nsistency of the cuts.) Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive (PSA) Tape 3M Scotch Tape #600 or equivalent, 25 mm (1 inch) wide Cleaning brush Burnishing tool Chartpak #340 or equivalent 5.2.3 Procedure Secure the card to be tested on a firm surface. Make cuts through the heat transfer film to the substrate i

49、n one steady motion. If cuts are to be made singularly, space six cuts 2 mm (0.079 in) apart about 20 mm (0.79 inches) long. Make a second set of cuts intersecting the first set at 90. Clean the cut surface (crosshatch) with the soft brush or tissue to remove flakes and other debris. Inspect the crosshatch area for corner tearing or other material removal. Note any corner tearing. Cut a piece of the pressure-sensitive tape about 80 mm (3 inches) long and place over the grid of cuts on the heat transfer film. Ensure good and
