Scope1.1 This practice covers a procedure for determining theabrasion resistance of printed materials using th

3、e SutherlandRub Tester, or its equivalent, equipped with full-width rubberpads and using standardized receptors.1.2 This practice is applicable to labels, folding cartons,corrugated boxes, inserts, circulars, and other packaging ma-terials having applied graphics on a flat substrate.1.3 This standar

4、d does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Practice4.1 The test specimen is mounted on top of the rubber padon the Sutherland

8、base and the receptor is cut to fit the 0.91-kg(2-lb) or the 1.81-kg (4-lb) weight (depending on which one isbeing used). The receptor is mounted to the weight. The testduration is determined by the number of strokes (a stroke is oneback-and-forth cycle) the sample is rubbed. The number ofstrokes de

9、sired is preset on the Sutherland Timer. The weight ismounted on the Sutherland and the machine is turned on. TheSutherland will shut off automatically when the desired numberof strokes is completed.4.2 The test specimen is removed from the Sutherland baseand examined for degree of print degradation

10、. The receptor isanalyzed for the amount of ink transferred from the specimen.Results are compared to an agreed upon standard sample testedin the identical fashion.5. Significance and Use5.1 Abrasion resistance is a desirable and sometimes criticalproperty of printed materials. Abrasion damage can o

The amount of abrasion damage to aprinted substrate is dependent on shipping conditions, possiblytemperature and humidity, time, and many other variabl

12、es. Thispractice provides a way of comparing abrasion resistance ofprinted materials under laboratory conditions.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D10 on Packagingand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D10.14 on Tape and Labels.Current edition approved April 1, 201

An appropriate receptor from the following listshould be selected in accordance with 8.2:7.1.1 Unprinted Sheet of Substrate,7.1.2 Printed Sheet Identical to Substrate (face-to-face),7.1.3 Pressure-sensitive tape or any tape suitable for holdingthe sample without interfering with the operation of

19、the tester.8. Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Set the Sutherland Rub Tester on a sturdy bench,preferably in a room conditioned at 23 6 1C (73.4 6 2F) and50 6 2 % relative humidity, as described in Practice D4332.8.2 If test criteria have not been specified, select an appro-priate receptor by running an

20、agreed-upon reference materialfor the number of strokes required to achieve a visible level ofdegradation.NOTE 1An excessively high number of strokes should be avoidedbecause this condition can generate heat which may alter the results.9. Specimen Preparation and Conditioning9.1 The specimen should

21、preferably be a flat sample with noscoring, ridges, or other surface irregularities. Further, intesting multiple samples, it is important that each has compa-rable, if not identical, ink coverage and ink density.9.2 Cut the specimen 76 by 152 mm (3 by 6 in.) wheneverpossible. Smaller samples may be

22、tested as long as they aremounted to a 76 by 152-mm (3 by 6-in.) template. (Smallersamples such as 20-mm (0.79-in.) round die-cut labels may notgive the same results as a full-size sheet 76 by 152 mm (3 by6 in.).9.2.1 The machine direction of the sample should be paral-lel to the 76-mm (3-in.) width

23、. The intent of this test method isto rub across the machine direction.9.2.2 Care should be taken to avoid contaminating thesample with fingerprints during handling.9.3 Condition the specimen at 23 6 1C (73.46 2F) and 506 2 % relative humidity, as described in Practice D4332,unless otherwise agreed

Procedure10.1 Mount a 76 by 152-mm (3 by 6-in.) rubber pad3bothon top of the Sutherland base as well as to the bottom face ofthe detectable receptor block.NOTE 2This pad will need periodic replacing as the rubber becomesbrittle due to oxidation or if the rubber wears off the pad. This perio

25、dicreplacing is also true of the pads that come with the Sutherland receptorblock. Failure to replace worn pads could result in distorted test results.The pad face should be uniformly flat (level) with a Shore A durometer of15 6 5.10.2 Mount the receptor to the rubber pad of the receptorblock with p

PatersonStreet, Kalamazoo, MI 49007.FIG. 1 Sutherland Rub Tester and AttachmentsD5264 98 (2011)2samples that experience severe shipping and handling conditions.10.4 Attach the receptor to the

28、 receptor block. The 51 by178-mm (2 by 5-in.) receptor is held in place by the clamps onthe sides of the block, while the 51 by 102-mm (2 by 4-in.)receptor is held in place by the pressure-sensitive tape.10.5 Lightly brush the sample and receptor with a camelshair anti-static brush to remove any pot

It will automatically shut offwhen the preset number of strokes has been completed.10.
