JIS P 8134 - Test Method for Puncture Resistance of Corrugated Fiberboard

JIS P 8134 specifies the method for determining the puncture resistance of corrugated fiberboard and other thick board materials. This test assesses the material's ability to withstand puncturing forces, ensuring its suitability for packaging applications.

Scope:

Applicable Materials:

  • Corrugated fiberboard and other thick board materials used in packaging cases.

Testing Methodology:

  • Utilizes a pendulum device with a pyramidal point to puncture the test specimen.

  • Measures the energy absorbed during puncture to evaluate the material's resistance.

Specimen Preparation:

  • Samples are prepared to specified dimensions and conditioned under standardized atmospheric conditions.

Assessment Parameters:

  • Higher energy values indicate greater puncture resistance, reflecting the durability and strength of the material.

Applications:

Quality Control:

  • Ensures that packaging materials meet durability standards for handling and shipping.

Material Comparison:

  • Allows manufacturers to compare different materials or treatments for their puncture resistance.

Product Development:

  • Provides insights to develop packaging solutions with enhanced protective properties.

Standardization:

  • Offers a consistent method for evaluating puncture resistance across various board materials.
