Standard Test Method for Unrestrained Linear Thermal Shrinkage of Plastic Film and Sheeting
Organization: | ASTM International |
Publication Date: | 10 August 2003 |
Status: | inactive |
Page Count: | 5 |
ICS Code (Films and sheets): | 83.140.10 |
significance And Use:
As a result of the manufacturing process, internal stresses may be locked into the film which can be released by heating. The temperature at which shrinkage will occur is related to the processing... View More
scope:
1.1 This test method covers determination of the degree of unrestrained linear thermal shrinkage at given specimen temperatures of plastic film and sheeting of 0.76 mm [0.030 in.] thickness or less. This test method does not cover shrinkage from loss of solvent in some materials.
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
Note 1-This document is not equivalent to ISO 11501.
