Overview
Generally Plastics Films are used for 'Packaging Application', and undergo wear & tear. Hence study of 'Impact' Resistance is established to evaluate the quality and mechanical property of the film.
This method covers the determination of the energy that causes Plastics Film to rupture under specific conditions of impact of a Free Falling Dart (load). This energy is expressed in terms of weight (mass) of the missile falling from a specified height which would result in %age specimen's failure tested.
