JIS K 7128-2 is the Japanese Industrial Standard for the tear resistance of thin plastic film and sheeting. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What JIS K 7128-2 Covers
It measures the force to propagate a tear through plastic film, using the Elmendorf and related approaches for films.
How the Test Is Run
A film specimen is torn by the specified method, and the tear resistance is recorded.
Why It Matters
Tear resistance governs film toughness; a suitable tear apparatus and controlled conditioning are used.
