Wet Tensile Test on Paper Explained
ISO 3781 or TAPPI T 456
In the wet tensile test the strength of the paper (or tissue) is determined while in a wet state. Wet tensile tests on paper are performed according to ISO 3781 or TAPPI T 456. If paper is used or processed in a wet state, wet strength is one of its most important material properties.
Dry Tensile Test on Paper with ZwickRoell
In many cases the only result to be determined is the tear strength or tear length, superfluous results can be hidden by the software. The ZwickRoell testing software accomplishes this by means of two functional levels:
- Standard test programs (to EN ISO 1924 or TAPPI T 494) contain only test sequences and results which are stipulated in test standards.
- Changing to Master functionality provides access to all the program's capabilities, ensuring the necessary functional scope for future tests.
If required, change in length and width can be measured directly with videoXtens.
