The clamp designs usedby some manufacturers can vary even for their own models.Instruments are available with pneumatically activated grips aswell, which minimizes variations due to differences in clamp-ing pressures exerted by manually tightened grips.5.2.2 A Combined Variation in Testers and

19、TestingPracticesAs measured tearing resistance increases or de-creases for different types of paper, the measurement canbecome so large or so small as to be outside the practical rangeof the instrument. This problem can be overcome in one of twoways; change the number of sample sheets tested at one

20、time tobe changed, or the mass of the instrument pendulum can bechanged either by adding augmenting weights or by replacingthe entire pendulum with one of a different known mass. Thetearing length must never be varied in an effort to alter thependulum capacity.5.2.3 These differences, together with

21、other lesser differ-ences in design details between instruments or testing prac-tices, preclude specifying a tearing instrument and method thatwould give essentially the same test results when usingElmendorf instruments of different design and manufacture.Even for one specific model, some procedural

22、 variables such asthe number of plies torn can alter the test values calculated ona single sheet basis substantially. By necessity, this referencemethod must be arbitrary and is limited to the describedprocedure used with instruments conforming to all of therequirements specified under 5.3.5.3 Requi

23、red Instrument for this Test Method:5.3.1 Elmendorf Tearing Tester (2, 3, 4), with a cutout asshown in Fig. 1, which prevents the specimen from coming incontact with the pendulum sector during the test, and havingthe following elements:5.3.2 Stationary and Movable ClampThe movable clampis carried on

24、 a pendulum formed by a sector of a circle free toswing on a ball bearing.5.3.3 Knife, mounted on a stationary post for starting thetear.5.3.4 Means for Leveling the Instrument.5.3.5 Pendulum HolderMeans for holding the pendulumin a raised position and for releasing it instantaneously.5.3.6 Means fo

25、r Registering the Maximum Arc throughwhich the pendulum swings when released. The registeringmeans can consist of a graduated scale mounted on thependulum, a pointer mounted on the same axis as the pendulumwith constant friction just sufficient to stop the pointer at thehighest point reached by the

26、swing of the sector, and anadjustable pointer stop for setting the zero of the instrument.5.3.6.1 The pointer and scale can be replaced by a digitalreadout unit which gives readings of equivalent accuracy andprecision (5).5.3.7 With the pendulum in its initial position ready for atest, the clamps ar

27、e separated by an interval of 2.8 6 0.3 mmand are so aligned that the specimen clamped in them lies in aplane parallel to the axis of the pendulum, the plane making anangle of 27.5 6 0.5 with the perpendicular line joining theaxis and the horizontal line formed by the top edges of theclamping jaws.T

28、he distance between the axis and the top edgesof the clamping jaws is 103.0 6 0.1 mm. The clamping surfacein each jaw is at least 25 mm wide and 15.9 6 0.1 mm deep.NOTE 2In the past, it has been the practice for instruments commonlyavailable in the United States to be equipped with 36 6 1 mm wide ja

29、ws.It is possible for instruments currently available to be equipped with jawsas narrow as 25 mm. Testing has shown that the effect of jaw width on testresults is statistically insignificant. It is recommended, however, that thetest specimen length be adjusted to match jaw width. See Note 3.5.3.8 Th

30、e instrument measures the energy (work done) usedby the pendulum in tearing the test specimen. In order toconvert to average tearing force, the energy must be divided bythe total distance through which the force is applied. Thisdivision can be accomplished by the electronics in digitalreadout instru

31、ments so that the readout is directly in grams-force or in millinewtons (SI unit of force). For pointer andscale instruments, the scale could be in millinewtons or ingrams-force for a specified number of plies; for example, whenthe specified number of plies are torn together, the scalereading gives

32、the average tearing resistance (force) of a singleply.5.3.9 Instruments of several capacities (2000, 4000, 8000,16 000 32 000 mN (200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200 gf) and perhapsothers are available, with the several capacities being achievedby individual instruments, interchangeable pendulum sectors,or au

33、gmenting weights. The instrument recognized as “stan-dard” for this test method has a capacity of 1600 gf (15.7 N),6The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to the list of references at the end ofthis standard.FIG. 1 Newer Testing Model with Deep CutoutD689 172having a pendulum sector of such mass

34、and mass distributionthat its 0 to 100 scale is direct reading in grams-force per plywhen 16 plies are torn together. For a 16-ply test specimen, thetearing distance K = 16 4.3 cm (tearing distance per ply) 2= 137.6 cm. The factor 2 is included since in tearing a givenlength the force is applied twi

35、ce the distance. Likewise, for a16-ply test specimen, the tearing energy per ply for a scalereading of 100 would then be 100 gf 137.6 cm or 13 760gfcm (1349.4 mJ). For some of the instruments of differentcapacities where different numbers of plies are required, orwhen the number of plies tested usin

36、g the “standard” instru-ment differs from 16, different values of K or the tearing energyper ply, or both, can be calculated.5.3.10 n the “standard” instrument, the zero reading on thescale is at about 70 from the center line (that is, the verticalbalance line when the pendulum hangs freely), the 10

37、0 readingis at about 21 from the center line, and a vertical force of1057.3 6 2.0 gf (10.369 6 0.020 N) applied at 22.000 60.005 cm from the pendulum axis is required to hold thependulum sector at 90 from its freely hanging position. Othertearing instruments will require vertical forces that are fac

38、torsof 2 greater or smaller than 1057.3 gf and, if calibrated inmillin- ewtons, the zero reading would remain at 70 and the1000 reading would be at about 19 (or the 981 reading atabout 21).5.3.11 The cutting knife for the test specimen is centeredbetween the clamps and adjusted in height so that the

39、 tearingdistance is 43.0 6 0.2 mm; for example, the distance betweenthe end of the slit made by the knife and the upper edge of thespecimen is 43.0 6 0.2 mm when the lower edge of the63.0-mm wide specimen rests against the bottom of the clamp.5.4 Instruments are available for automated testing thati

40、ncorporates automatic sample insertion, automatic samplecutting, and so forth, in addition to electronic data readout asspecified in 5.3.4. These automated instruments can be used,provided the conditions specified in 5.3 are met.5.5 Specimen Cutter, to ensure parallel specimens 63 60.15 mm wide with

41、 sharp and clean edges. For this purpose, itis desirable to use the type having two hardened and groundbase shears, twin knives tensioned against the base shears, anda hold-down mechanism.6. Sampling and Test Specimens6.1 Obtain the sample to be tested in accordance withMethods D585.6.2 From each te

42、st unit of the sample, prepare ten represen-tative specimens in each principal direction of the paper, unlessa test in only one direction is required. For each specimen,arbitrarily designate one side of the material in some way, suchas “primary side”, “print side”, “wire side”, “side one”, and sofor

43、th. For each specimen, keep the designated sides of all theplies facing the same way.NOTE 3It has been found (6) that there is usually no advantage intesting more than ten specimens of a homogeneous test unit of the sample.6.3 Cut each ply for a test specimen so that its dimension onthe side placed

44、in the clamps is at least 53 mm and thedimension through which the tear will be propagated is 63.0 60.15 mm. Take all the plies to be torn together from a singlesheet. If sufficient material is not provided, take from adjacentsheets of a unit.NOTE 4The correct dimension for the side of the test spec

45、imen thatwill be placed in the clamps is equal to the distance between the outermostedges of each of the instruments jaws (62 mm). For the instrumentdescribed in 5.3, that distance is at least225mm(the minimum widthfor each jaw face) plus 2.8 mm (the distance between the clamps) or atleast 53 mm. In

46、 the United States, the majority of the instruments havejaws 36+1mmwide. A dimension of 76 6 2.0 mm for the side of thesample to be held in the clamps is correct.7. Calibration and Adjustment7.1 As noted in Section 5, several Elmendorf-type testersare available and in use at the present time. Minor

47、differencesin calibration or adjustment procedures, or both, can apply toinstruments obtained from different vendors that comply with5.3, thus it is questionable that specific calibration procedurescan be used for all instruments complying with 5.3. Theinformation contained in this section is to be

48、used as a guide inplacing an individual instrument into proper calibration for usein performing the test.7.2 Verification of ScaleOnce the scale has been verified,it is unnecessary to repeat this step, provided the tester is keptin adjustment and no parts become changed or perceptiblyworn. The scale

49、 can be verified either by the potential energymethod or by the method which uses the check weightsobtainable from the manufacturer. The potential energy methodis relatively time-consuming and complicated. The checkweight method is relatively simple.7.2.1 Potential Energy MethodThe procedure (7) for veri-fication is as follows: Anchor and level the tester. Clamp aknown weight (in grams), W, to the radial edge of the sectorbeneath the jaws, the center of gravity of the weight (includingmeans of attaching) having been previously marked by apunched dot on
