1.1本试验方法涵盖了包装缓冲材料蠕变性能的测定。它适用于散装、薄片或模制形式的材料，用于在储存、搬运和装运期间缓冲物品。 1.2 本标准并非旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的用户有责任在使用前制定适当的安全和健康实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 ====意义和用途====== 该试验方法确定了静载荷下垫层厚度变化的程度和性质。通过本试验方法获得的蠕变数据适用于特定试验条件下的缓冲垫，并且不一定与实际包装环境中完整包装中获得的蠕变数据相同。数据可能受到静载荷大小、试样面积、形状和厚度、温度、湿度等环境条件的变化、活动压板导向系统中的摩擦力以及实际垫层厚度的影响。 测试夹具附近的振动也可能影响数据结果。

1.1 This test method covers the determination of creep properties of package cushioning materials. It is applicable to materials available in bulk, sheet, or molded form used for the cushioning of articles during storage, handling, and shipment. 1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. ====== Significance And Use ====== This test method determines the extent and nature of cushion thickness change under static load. Creep data obtained by this test method are applicable to the cushion under the conditions of the particular test and are not necessarily the same as obtained in a complete pack in actual packaging environments. Data may be affected by magnitude of static load, specimen area, shape, and thickness, by varying ambient conditions of temperature, humidity, by friction in the movable platen guide system, and by actual cushion thickness. Vibration in the vicinity of the test fixtures may also influence data results.
