This standard BS EN 17679:2022 Plastics. Plastic films. Determination of tear resistance using a trapezoidal test specimen with incision is classified in these ICS categories:
83.140.10 Films and sheets
This document specifies a method of determining the tear resistance of a plastic film under specified conditions. It is applicable to products that, because of their flexibility, do not tear when clamped between the grips of a tensile testing machine. The method makes it possible to compare samples of different products provided their thickness does not differ by more than 10 %.
