Plastics - Film and sheeting - Determination of cold-crack
temperature
1 Scope
This document describes a method for evaluating the brittleness of plastic films and
sheeting at low temperature.
The cold-crack temperature is usually used to compare the low temperature
performance of plastic film and sheeting, which is used a reference for evaluation in
this document.
This document applies to the characterization of finished products of a given thickness
and pattern, regardless of the composition of their raw materials. Data derived from this
document may not be transferred without limitation to any other type of application or
condition.
2 Normative references
The following documents are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the version corresponding
to that date is applicable to this document; for undated references, the latest version
(including all amendments) is applicable to this document.

3 Terms and definitions
The following terms and definitions are applicable to this document.
3.1 Cold-crack temperature
The temperature at which 50% of the test specimens rupture or show damage when
tested according to the method specified in this document.
4 Principle
Place the test specimen bent into a ring in the cooling chamber to make it withstand the
instantaneous folding caused by the impact of the free fall of the impact block.
Repeat the test at temperatures in steps of 5 °C, starting when no test specimens are
ruptured or damaged, and ending when all test specimens are ruptured or damaged.
5 Equipment
Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a typical test setup. Other devices of the same
physical principles can also be used. Figure 2 shows a schematic diagram of another
applicable design scheme.
5.1 Impact device
5.1.1 Specimen holder
Fasten one or more test specimens on the specimen table through clamps (such as leaf
springs); clamp each test specimen along its entire width (15 mm) and ensure that each
end of the specimen ring is clamped for a length of 10 mm (see Figure 1), so that the
specimen ring bears the folded portion of the length of 40 mm.
The specimen table may be equipped with a device (such as revolving type) so that each
specimen can be accurately rotated to the test position located under the impact block
guide sleeve.
Another possibility is to install the test device with guide sleeves each provided with its
own impact block. The guide tubes can be arranged in a row or in a circle, depending
on the space permitting of the cooling chamber.
5.1.2 Rigid anvil
Rigid anvils may be attached to, or form part of, the specimen table on which the
specimen is in the test position.
5.1.3 Two impact blocks
The masses of the two impact blocks are 200 g and 500 g, respectively.
The impact block is a metal cylinder with a diameter of 18 mm ~ 29 mm, and the edge
of the lower surface is slightly curved.
The test specimens shall be composed of strips with a size of 60 mm × 15 mm. The
edge of test specimens shall be free from cuts, scratches and other defects.
The thickness shall be measured according to ISO 4593.
6.2 Sampling
For each temperature, take 10 test specimens whose long side (60 mm) is parallel to the
longitudinal direction of the sample and 10 test specimens whose long side is parallel
to the transverse direction of the sample. All specimens shall be taken at least 150 mm
from the edge and more than 1 m from the beginning and end of the roll.
7 Conditioning of specimens
Bow the test specimens into a ring shape and install them on the specimen holder. If the
specimen film or sheeting is printed or textured on one side, this side shall be on the
outside of the ring.
The installed test specimens shall be conditioned for at least 3 hours in an environment
specified in ISO 291.
8 Selection of impact block
Where the impact block is not pre-agreed, if an impact block of 200 g is sufficient to
effectively fold the specimen, start the test with this impact block, otherwise, use an
impact block of 500 g.
The following specification can be used to verify effective folding. Bend a paper strip
(approximately 70 g/m2) of the same size as the test specimen into a ring and place it in
the specimen ring. According to the steps in Chapter 9, use a 200 g impact block to test
the plastic/paper composite specimen, and use a temperature slightly higher than the
cold-crack temperature to prevent the specimen from cracking. Check the paper strip, a
sharp crease at the top of the ring indicates an effective folding.
9 Procedures
9.1 Align the guide sleeve with the specimen position on the specimen table.
9.2 Put the impact device mounted with specimens into the cooling chamber. When the
test temperature of the impact device reaches stability (about 15 minutes), place the
specimen (in case of a revolving-type device, the first specimen) under the guide sleeve,
release the impact block, and then reset the impact block to its original position. Repeat
this operation if there are other specimens.
