United States1unless otherwise specified in the test methods or required in aspecification. Since the tape or film does not absorb water, themaintenance of const

16、ant humidity during testing is not impor-tant.6. Width6.1 Determine width measurements using a steel scalehaving divisions at a minimum of 0.5-mm 164-in. intervals.6.2 Test at least one specimen from each lot.6.3 Each test specimen shall be approximately 450 mm 18in. in length. Place the specimens o

17、n a hard smooth surface.Measure the width perpendicular to the edge of the steel scale,at three approximately equally spaced points along the length.6.4 Report the average width in millimetres or inches plusthe maximum and minimum values if they are required by aspecification.7. Thickness7.1 Measure

18、 thickness of the tape and film in accordancewith Test Methods D374. Test Method D shall be the preferredmethod. The force on the foot shall not exceed 300 g. TestMethod B shall not be used as the film is compressible, andthere is no restraint on how much compression is used.NOTE 2Alternate methods
