Significance and Use5.1 This test method will find use by parties concerned withthe relative level of physical strength stability over time ofva

17、rious printing and writing papers.5.2 The test will provide manufacturers, paper users andother interested parties with rankings of paper stability thatidentify papers that will be stable and those that will beunstable when aged under normal conditions of use andhandling over time.5.3 The stability

18、rankings may be used for definition of thestability of a given printing and writing paper to aging overtime when subjected to reasonable conditions of use andhandling. These rankings will not define specific periods of lifeexpectancy, as the limit of mechanical strength propertyacceptability will be

19、 different for various users of a givenpaper.6. Apparatus6.1 Use a laboratory forced-convection oven that maintainsa uniform temperature of 100 6 1.0C.6.2 Configure the oven so that conditioned paper, enclosedwithin airtight glass tubes, can be aged in its interior space.6.3 Include multiple racks w

20、ithin the oven to allow horizon-tal orientation of glass tubes inside the oven.6.4 Provide glass tubes of approximately 36.0-cm3internalvolume per oven-dry gram of paper to be evaluated. Usescrew-on caps that are fitted with O-rings or gaskets that ensurea hermetic seal of the interior contents duri

21、ng the elevatedtemperature aging. Use materials (glass, cap, O-ring, or gasket)that are thermally stable at or preferably well above the agingtemperature of 100C, and also chemically resistant to acidcorrosion. Two sources of tubes of approximately 145-cm3internal volume have been tested and found t

22、o be satisfactory.They are:6.4.1 Kontes Hybridization Tubes, 35-mm inside diameterby 150-mm long (Kontes No. K736500-3515). These glasstubes have polypropylene screw caps with silicone rubberO-rings.6.4.2 Lab-Line Hybridization Tubes, 38-mm outside diam-eter by 150-mm long (Lab-Line No. 308-9). Thes

23、e tubes havepolypropylene screw caps with TFE-fluorocarbon resin gas-kets.7. Calibration7.1 Provide an oven in which the internal temperatureuniformity can be maintained to within 61.0C at 100C.7.2 Recalibrate the oven with sufficient frequency to ensurecontinual maintenance of the required temperat

24、ure.8. Conditioning8.1 Condition the paper samples according to PracticeD 685 for a minimum of 24 h both immediately prior to andimmediately following the accelerated aging period. Omit thepreconditioning step of Practice D 685 following the agingperiod.9. Procedure9.1 At all times throughout this t

25、est procedure, handle papersamples only with clean cotton gloves. This means that cleancotton gloves are required for handling of the paper both beforeand following the aging procedure.9.2 Select paper samples according to Practice D 585.9.3 For the sample selected, randomize the sheets of paper.9.4

26、 From the randomized set of paper sheets, select eightindividual sheets (equivalent to 812 by 11-in. sheets) at randomfor each test unit. Two test units are required for each sample;one for the testing of the unaged paper, and a second for thetesting of the aged paper.9.5 Thoroughly clean the aging

27、tubes prior to insertion ofpaper. The required cleaning sequence follows:9.5.1 Wash thoroughly with non-ionic detergent and tapwater.9.5.2 Rinse the tubes thoroughly with tap water to removeall residual soap.9.5.3 Rinse three more times with distilled water and allowto drain sufficiently.9.5.4 Dry t

28、he tubes in an oven at about 105C.9.5.5 Condition the complete tube assembly (opened) for aminimum of 24 h in a room conditioned at the terms specifiedin Practice D 685.9.6 If starting with new, previously unused aging tubes,caps, O-rings or gaskets, bake them at 100 to 105C for at least24 h in prep

29、aration for their first use, following the completionof the previous cleaning steps.9.7 After conditioning has been completed, cap the tubesand maintain them in that condition until their use in an agingtest.9.8 For each test unit, cut the paper sheets in the dimensionsappropriate for the relevant A

30、STM strength tests that are to beperformed following the aging procedure.9.9 Place conditioned paper in the tubes for aging, butdetermine the weight required as the ovendry weight of thepaper. To insert the correct ovendry weight, determine themoisture content of the conditioned paper according to T

31、estMethod D 644. Subtract the weight of moisture as thusdetermined from the total conditioned weight of the paper tocalculate the correct ovendry weight. Insert an amount ofconditioned paper that will provide a ratio of 0.0275 ovendrygram of paper for each cubic centimeter of capped aging tubeintern

32、al volume.9.10 For the tubes of 145 cm3identified in 6.4, insert anamount of conditioned paper equivalent to 4.0 g 6 0.1 ovendrygrams per tube. Four tubes are required to age one test unitwith fold strips (40) and tear strips (8 to 16, depending ongrammage) divided evenly between the four tubes. For

33、 tubes ofdifferent volume, adjust the number of strips proportionately tomaintain the required 0.0275 ovendry grams of paper per cubiccentimeter of internal capped tube volume. Ensure that thereare at least 40 fold strips and 8 to 16 tear strips (depending ongrammage) in each test unit.9.11 If the r

34、equired ovendry weight of paper cannot beacquired by adjustment of specimen dimensions (within theallowable tolerances), cut an additional small portion of paperfrom the same test unit and add it to the tube to provide therequired mass per unit volume for the tube size being utilized.9.12 While stil

35、l in the conditioned room, insert the condi-tioned specimens into the aging tubes. For the tear strength test,D681902e32roll test strips of the paper (two to four, depending ongrammage), one atop the other, for proper sample insertion intothe internal periphery of the aging tubes. Ensure that the te

36、artest strips are free of folds or creases at the time they are finallyin place in the tube. Insert the fold specimens inside the rolledtear test strips. Put the caps into place and secure (hand-tight)to provide a complete seal.9.13 Provide a means to identify the test units being testedby making an

37、 identification mark on the exterior of each agingtube.9.14 Prior to aging, raise the oven temperature to 100C.9.15 Insert loaded tubes into the heated oven on their sidesand place them so as to be only one layer deep on each ovenrack.9.16 Age the test units continuously for 120 6 0.5 h.9.17 Upon re

38、moval from the oven, return each tube to theroom conditioned in accordance with Practice D 685 and allowthem to equilibrate unopened to room temperature for aminimum of 1 h. Note any observable change in paperappearance. Observe these changes through the tube without itshaving been uncapped. If the

39、color of the aged samples appearsdifferent in different tubes, the samples with the lighter colormay not be airtight.9.18 Uncap the tubes upon their return to the ambienttemperature of the conditioned room and then allow thespecimens to equilibrate for at least 24 h.9.19 Once the paper has reached e

40、quilibrium with roomconditions, remove the specimens with tweezers, taking care toensure that no creases or folds are made in the paper.9.20 Carefully unroll the tear test strips and place them on aflat, clean, inert surface. Cover them with a sheet of glass orpoly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). Add w

41、eight atop thesheet of glass or poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) in orderto provide a total weight of approximately 1 kg applied evenlyover the full surface of the tear strips. Leave the weight in placefor at least 12 h. The uniform, low-pressure application of forceon the surface of the tear test s

42、trips is required to reduce thecurl in the strips at the time of their testing. At the end of the“flattening” period, carefully remove the weight from the teartest strips.9.21 Perform tests on the test units in accordance with therelevant ASTM test method. Perform these tests at the sametime on unag

43、ed and aged (according to the procedure describedpreviously) test units of the same paper sample.As a minimum,the tests to be performed must include:9.21.1 M.I.T. fold endurance in the machine direction (MD)of the paper, and9.21.2 Tear strength in the cross direction (CD) of the paper.10. Calculatio

44、n and Interpretation of Results10.1 Calculate the results for any given strength test accord-ing to instructions included in the relevant ASTM test method.10.2 Calculate the % retention of the MIT folding endur-ance as follows:fold retention, % 5fold number MD! aged samplefold number MD! unaged samp

Report11.1 Report paper stability according to the measured %property retention as in Table 1. For a paper to be classi

46、fied asstable, all of the paper stability determination results must beclassified as stable. That is to say if the paper stabilitydetermination results for internal tearing resistance are classi-fied as stable but the results for MIT fold endurance areclassified as unstable, the paper shall be judge

47、d unstable.NOTE 1A higher fold and tear strength retention suggests a morestable paper.12. Precision and Bias12.1 Precision and bias requirements are found in the testmethods for MIT fold endurance (Test Method D 2176) andInternal Tearing Resistance (Test Method D 689).13.
