Norma ISO 8295

Metoda badania współczynnika tarcia

Ten Norma ISO 8295 standard plays a critical role in evaluating the slip properties of plastic films, essential for packaging performance, processing efficiency, and product safety. By determining the współczynnik tarcia (COF) between film surfaces or between film and other materials, ISO 8295 ensures that manufacturers can maintain consistent product quality and packaging reliability.

ISO 8295 Is Important for Plastic Film Manufacturers

For film producers and packaging converters, Norma ISO 8295 testing is a cornerstone of kontrola jakości. The slip behavior of plastic films—whether polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, or multilayer laminates—can change due to:

• Additive migration (e.g., slip agents like erucamide)
• Surface treatments (e.g., corona, plasma)
• Environmental exposure (aging or humidity)
• Handling conditions during shipping and processing

Accurate COF measurements help ensure the film performs well throughout its lifecycle—from converting and printing to sealing and final application.

Coefficient of Friction of Film and COF of Plastic Film in Packaging

Ten coefficient of friction of film, often referred to as COF of plastic film, measures how easily one layer of film slides over another. This property significantly influences machinability on form-fill-seal equipment, pouching lines, and automated stacking processes. Poor slip characteristics can lead to equipment jams or misfeeds, while overly slippery films may cause sealing problems or product misalignment.

Norma ISO 8295 specifically provides a standardized method for testing both statyczny I dynamic coefficients of friction:

• Statyczny współczynnik przenikania ciepła (μs) measures the resistance at the start of motion.
• Dynamic COF (μd) measures resistance during continued sliding.

This distinction is vital for applications such as vertical form fill seal (VFFS) where packaging films must initiate and maintain smooth movement under load.

Overview of ISO 8295 Testing Method

ISO 8295 outlines a laboratory method for evaluating slip properties by sliding a sled across a test specimen placed on a horizontal test surface. The apparatus generally includes:

• A sanki with a standardized weight (typically 200g ±29g) and contact area.
• A motorized stage or a tensile testing machine to apply uniform motion.
• A force-measuring device to record frictional resistance.

Key parameters defined in ISO 8295 include:

• Test speed: Normally 100 mm/min ±10 mm/min
• Contact time before sliding: 15 seconds
• Sample conditioning: 23°C, 50% RH for at least 16 hours per ISO 291

Measurements are typically taken over multiple film pairs to ensure statistical accuracy. The results help assess uniformity across a production batch or compare formulations with varying slip agents.

Common Applications of ISO 8295 Testing

Industries using ISO 8295 COF data include:

• Food packaging: To optimize vertical and horizontal bagging systems
• Opakowania na urządzenia medyczne: Ensuring sterile barrier packaging doesn’t stick or slide excessively
• Adhesive labels and tapes: Where release liner performance depends on friction characteristics
• Opakowania farmaceutyczne: To maintain dimensional stability during blister packing

Understanding the COF also supports zgodność z przepisami, particularly where machinability and safety are concerned.

Często zadawane pytania

1. What is ISO 8295 used for?

ISO 8295 is used to measure the static and dynamic coefficients of friction of plastic films and sheeting, helping assess slip properties for processing and handling.

2. Why is COF important in packaging films?

The coefficient of friction impacts machinability, stacking, sealing, and transport of films. Proper COF ensures smooth processing and prevents issues like sticking or misfeeding.

3. How do additives affect COF?

Slip additives migrate to the surface over time and reduce friction. However, their effect can vary with age, humidity, and formulation, making COF testing crucial.

4. Can ISO 8295 be used for non-film materials?

It is primarily designed for plastic films up to 0.5 mm, but with adjustments, it can also test films against metal, paper, or other substrates.
