ASTM D 882 - 02 Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Thin Plastic Sheeting

American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Current edition approved April 10, 2002. Published June 2002. 10 p. This test method covers the determination of tensile properties of plastics in the form of thin sheeting, including film (less than 1.0 mm (0.04 in.) in thickness).
NOTE 1—Film has been arbitrarily defined as sheeting having nominal thickness not greater than 0.25 mm (0.010 in.).
NOTE 2—Tensile properties of plastics 1.0 mm (0.04 in.) or greater in thickness shall be determined according to Test Method D 638.
