Available format(s)

Language(s)

Published date

01-02-2010

1.1 This test method provides measures of the drop impact resistance of blow-molded thermoplastic containers as a summation of the effects of material, manufacturing conditions, container design, and perhaps other factors.

1.2 Three procedures are provided as follows:

1.2.1 Procedure A, Static Drop Height MethodThis procedure is particularly useful for quality control since it is quick.

1.2.2 Procedure B, Bruceton Staircase MethodThis procedure is used to determine the mean failure height and the standard deviation of the distribution.

1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The inch-pound units given in parentheses are for information only.

Note 1—There is no known ISO equivalent to this standard.

1.4 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.
