Cut the outer packaging of wet wipes from the port; remove the outer packaging; take
out the wet wipes continuously without deformation; place them flat on the glass plate
naturally. Use a ruler to measure the length and width of the specimen. Each sample of
the same specification shall be 6 pieces, accurate to 1 mm. Calculate the length or width
deviation according to formula (1); the result is accurate to 0.1%.
6.3 Packaging sealing performance

acceptable. In arbitration, GB/T 40181 shall be followed. If the fiber content meets the
requirements of 5.1.2 of this document, the aerobic biodegradation/degradation test and

package, extract the actual number of pieces in a single package. Immediately weigh it
using a balance with a graduation value of 0.01 g after sampling. Then rinse the
specimen with distilled water or deionized water, until there is no foam. Place it in an
oven at (85 ± 2) °C. The specimen shall not touch the four walls of the oven. After
drying for 4 hours, take it out and put it in a desiccator. After cooling to room
temperature, weigh it again. Calculate the liquid content according to formula (2); the
