Bubbles and wrinkles on the reel and visible defects on the film which affect the proper use of the film shall be limited. 7.3 Optional characteristics 7.3.1 Airtightness and oxygen permeability determined on a wrapped artificial bale NOTE 1 The quality of silage is strongly depending on the global airtightness of wrapped bales. Several parameters can influence the global airtightness results: measurable properties such as the permeability cling force or tightening force of the film and also properties difficult to quantify by means of laboratory equipments, such as wrinkles, tiger stripes or film appearance when stretched. NOTE 2 At the date of publication of this standard, there is no European or international standardized method to determine the airtightness and the oxygen permeability by wrapping an artificial bale. Guidance for assessing the airtightness and the oxygen permeability of a stretch silage film by wrapping an artificial bale is given in Annex F. The oxygen permeability is defined in Annex F as the amount of permeated oxygen (from the atmosphere) through the artificial bale per 100 h. The airtightness is defined in Annex F as the time for the internal pressure to increase from

is the density of the film as stated by the manufacturer, expressed in kilograms per cubic metres (kg/m3). 8.2 Determination of width The width of the film shall be determined in accordance with ISO 4592. 8.3 Determination of core protrusion The core protrusion of a roll shall be measured on each side of the roll. The two values shall be expressed in millimetres (mm) recorded and compared with the value in Table 2. 8.4 Determination of film length The length of the film shall be determined by unwinding the roll by means of a calibrated reel in contact continuously with its outside surface
(see Figure 1). The calibrated reel is connected to a revolution counter. The diameter of the calibrated reel shall be measured with a accuracy of ± 0,2 %. The roll shall be totally unwound at a speed of 100 m/min ± 10 m/min. The value of the length of the film is calculated by using Formula (2): π=⋅⋅lnd (2) where l is the value of the length of the film, expressed in metres (m); SIST EN 14932:2018

The test result, corresponding to the film shrinkage in TD, shall be expressed as a percentage of the original width by using Formula (3): −=121100iWWNW
(3) where Ni is the value of neck-in, expressed as a percentage (%); W1 is the measured width of the unstretched film according to 8.2, expressed in millimetres (mm); W2 is the measured width of the stretched film on the bale (D.5.4), expressed in millimetres (mm). 8.6 Determination of tensile characteristics The tensile characteristics shall be determined according to EN ISO 527-1 and EN ISO 527-3 using five test pieces type 2, see EN ISO 527-3:1995, Figure 1, 15 mm wide, cut in MD and TD of the film, at a test speed of 500 mm/min, with an initial grip-to-grip separation of 50 mm. Calculate the arithmetic average value of the five measurements. The arithmetic average values shall fulfil the requirements of Table 2, as applicable. NOTE A possible way to prepare the test specimens is to cut
from a stack of 2 or more (max. 10) layers of the film under investigation and then separate them individually by delaminating in order to limit the risk of creating micro-fractures in the specimens because stretch films are thin and sticky SIST EN 14932:2018
made of
preferably not pigmented rigid plastic (e.g. fluorinated polymer) and the tacky side of the film facing the backing. After the exposure, determine the tensile strain at break according to EN ISO 527-1 and EN ISO 527-3, using five type 2 test pieces, see Figure 1 of EN ISO 527-3:1995, 15 mm wide, taken in MD of the film, at a test speed of 500 mm/min, with an initial grip-to-grip separation of 50 mm. SIST EN 14932:2018
Exposure to other light sources A.1 Medium pressure mercury vapour lamps A.1.1 Exposure method Carry out the exposure according to EN 16472 using the test conditions given in A.1.2 and A.1.3. The exposure may be carried out in the presence of moisture in the form of water spray, condensation or by immersion cycles with or without light. In this case, test parameters shall be agreed between parties and recorded in the test report. NOTE Information on the influence of water and additive migration can be found in ISO 10640 [10]. A.1.2 Irradiance The irradiance at the surface of the test specimens shall be (95 ± 15) W/m2 in the spectral passband 290 nm to 420 nm. A.1.3 Temperature NOTE An accurate control of the actual temperature of exposed specimens is critical since the thermal activation energy of photochemical processes leads to exponential variation of the degradation rate according to a type-Arrhenius law. For apparatus including a platinum sensor in contact with a specimen attached to the specimen holder, the film temperature shall be controlled at (60 ± 4) °C. For apparatus including a platinum sensor inserted in a white thermally-controlled component, the initial set point of the temperature shall be (58 ± 0,5) °C. As a given temperature set point can lead to different results depending on the apparatus, it is necessary to calibrate them. See A.1.4. A.1.4 Apparatus calibration The calibration of the apparatus shall be carried out relatively to the photochemistry be means of an actinometer made from a polyethylene reference specimens (PERS), as defined in ISO/TR 19032:2006 [11]. The calibration by means of a PERS allows controlling accurately the photochemical attack from both irradiance and temperature. PERS shall be exposed during 72 h using test conditions specified in A.1.2 and A.1.3. The oxidation level shall be measured by using an infrared spectrometer in the transmission mode. The absorbance ratio (carbonyl index); Ar, shall satisfy the following condition: ≤=≤171520201,82,4rAAA (A.1) SIST EN 14932:2018
for the duration specified by the film manufacturer. The test method consists of an irradiance step (dry, with irradiance) and a condensation step (high humidity, without irradiation), with the following test conditions: a) irradiance shall be (0,76 ± 0,06) W/m2, measured at 340 nm at the surface of the test specimen. b) the temperature of the test specimen shall be (60 ± 3) °C during irradiance and (50 ± 3) °C during condensation step. The temperature shall be measured with an uninsulated black-panel thermometer (BPT). An accurate control of the effective temperature of the test specimen is of main importance. The thermal activation energy of photochemical processes leads to an exponential variation of the rate of degradation according to an Arrhenius type law. A.2.2 Procedure The sample shall be exposed according to A.2.1 for the duration specified by the film manufacturer. After the exposure, the tensile strain at break shall be determined according to EN ISO 527-1 and EN ISO 527-3, using five type 2 test pieces, 15 mm wide, taken longitudinally in the film (MD), at a test speed of 500 mm/min, with an initial grip-to-grip separation of 50 mm. SIST EN 14932:2018
Numerical correlation between durations of stretch forage films exposed to artificial weathering and a natural exposure B.1 Exposure to xenon-arc lamps The method specified in EN ISO 4892-2:2013, Method A, consists to expose stretch forage films to radiations in the ultraviolet (UV) and visible regions of the spectrum that are very similar to the solar spectrum. For this reason it is reasonable to presume that a correlation exists between the artificial exposure and the natural exposure of a film to daylight. A numerical correlation between durations of exposure to artificial weathering according to 8.11.2 and durations of natural exposure, measured in terms of average yearly global solar radiant exposure, of stretch forage films is given in Table B.1. Table B.1 — Correlation between the exposure to artificial weathering using xenon-arc lamps and natural weathering Global solar radiant exposure GJ/m2/year (kLy/year) Duration of exposure for an expected lifetime of 1 year h Up to 4,2 (up to 100) 1 370 Up
to 5,4 (up to 130) 1 780 Up to 6,7 (up to 160) 2 200 1kLy = 0,0418 4 GJ/m2 In practice many factors reduce the correlation between the duration of a stretch film used for forage bale wrapping in outdoor real conditions and the duration of the same film exposed to artificial weathering. Among these it is appropriate to mention the use of agrochemicals that may
