ASTM D828 — Tensile Properties of Paper and Paperboard (CRE Method)
ASTM D828 is the test method for the tensile properties of paper and paperboard using a constant rate of elongation. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What ASTM D828 Covers
It determines tensile strength and elongation of paper and paperboard, the ASTM basis for paper tensile characterization.
How the Test Is Run
A conditioned strip is gripped and pulled at a controlled elongation rate while force and elongation are recorded, and tensile strength and stretch are calculated.
Why It Matters
Tensile strength underpins paper runnability and end-use performance; low-slip line grips and controlled conditioning are essential.
