Paper and board - Determination of bending resistance - Part 1: Constant rate of deflection

ISO 2493-1:2010 specifies procedures, based on the two-point loading principle, for determining the bending resistance of paper and board. ISO 2493-1:2010 applies to the measurement of the bending resistance within the range 20 mN to 10 000 mN. It is not applicable to corrugated board but can be applicable to the components of such board. The bending angle is 15° and the bending length is 50 mm. For samples having a bending resistance that is too low to measure with a bending length of 50 mm, a shorter bending length, i.e. 10 mm, can be used. For boards that tend to be permanently deformed if bent through 15°, the half bending angle, i.e. 7,5°, can be used.

L'ISO 2493-1:2010 spécifie les modes opératoires, fondés sur le principe de charge en deux points, destinés à la détermination de la résistance à la flexion des papiers et cartons. L'ISO 2493-1:2010 est applicable au mesurage de valeurs de la résistance à la flexion comprises entre 20 mN et 10 000 mN. Elle ne s'applique pas aux cartons ondulés, mais peut s'appliquer à leurs composants. L'angle de flexion est de 15° et la longueur de flexion est de 50 mm. Pour les échantillons présentant une résistance à la flexion qui est trop faible pour être mesurée avec une longueur de flexion de 50 mm, il est possible d'utiliser une longueur de flexion plus courte, à savoir de 10 mm. Pour les cartons qui ont tendance à se déformer de manière permanente lorsqu'ils subissent une flexion de 15°, il est possible d'utiliser la moitié de l'angle de flexion, à savoir 7,5°.

Overview

ISO 2493-1:2010 - "Paper and board - Determination of bending resistance - Part 1: Constant rate of deflection" specifies a laboratory test method for measuring the bending resistance of paper and board using a two-point loading (constant rate of deflection) principle. The method covers bending forces in the range 20 mN to 10 000 mN, with a default bending angle of 15° and bending length of 50 mm. Alternative settings (10 mm bending length or 7.5° bending angle) are allowed where required, but results obtained with different settings are not directly comparable.

Keywords: ISO 2493-1:2010, bending resistance, paper and board, constant rate of deflection, two-point loading, bending length, bending angle, bending resistance index

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Principle: Measure force required to bend a clamped test piece through a specified angle with a knife edge applying force at a fixed bending length.
  • Measurement range: 20 mN to 10 000 mN.
  • Standard geometry and motion:
    • Bending length l = 50.0 ± 0.1 mm (optionally 10.0 ± 0.1 mm for low-resistance samples).
    • Bending angle = 15.0° ± 0.3° (optionally 7.5° ± 0.3° for materials that deform permanently).
    • Clamp: ≥38 mm wide, rotation speed (5.0 ± 0.5)°/s.
    • Knife edge length 16 ± 2 mm, centrally applied.
  • Apparatus and calibration: Force sensor with specified accuracies (±5% for 0–100 mN, ±2% above 100 mN) and movement <0.05 mm; regular calibration required.
  • Sampling & conditioning: Follow ISO 186 (sampling) and ISO 187 (conditioning). Prepare at least 10 test pieces per principal direction (machine/cross), 38 mm wide with appropriate free length.
  • Results: Report bending resistance as the mean of valid readings and standard deviation to three significant figures. Optional bending resistance index = bending resistance ÷ (grammage^3) for normalized comparison.

Applications and users

  • Quality control in pulp, paper and board manufacturing - routine monitoring of stiffness and handling properties.
  • Product development and R&D - material selection and formulation to achieve target bending resistance.
  • Converters and coating/laminating operations - assess resistance for finishing and converting processes.
  • Test laboratories and certification bodies - standardized comparative testing and specification compliance.
  • Instrument manufacturers - design and validate bending-resistance testers to ISO requirements.

Related standards

  • ISO 2493-2 (Taber-type tester) - alternative bending-resistance principle (results not directly comparable).
  • ISO 5628 - description of two-point loading principle.
  • ISO 186 (sampling), ISO 187 (conditioning), ISO 536 (grammage determination).

Use ISO 2493-1:2010 when you need a repeatable, standardized method for measuring bending resistance with the constant-rate-of-deflection, two-point loading approach, particularly for homogeneous papers and boards (excluding corrugated board as a finished product).

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 2493-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 6, Paper, board and pulps, Subcommittee SC 2,
Test methods and quality specifications for paper and board.
This first edition, together with ISO 2493-2, cancels and replaces ISO 2493:1992, which has been technically
revised. In the revision, ISO 2493:1992 was divided into two parts due to different measuring principles. This
part of ISO 2493 describes the constant rate of deflection and ISO 2493-2 describes the Taber-type tester.
This part also gives the possibility to use a smaller bending length and a lower bending angle if needed.
Optional calculation in index form has been added. A precision statement has been added in informative
Annex A.
ISO 2493 consists of the following parts, under the general title Paper and board — Determination of bending

Introduction
In ISO 2493:1992, two principles for determining the bending resistance were incorporated in the same
standard, although the two principles were very different.
One principle involved the deflection of an equal number of test pieces with opposing surfaces towards the
direction of deflection; this principle is described in this part of ISO 2493.
The other principle used a Taber-type tester, where the test piece was inserted and deflected to the top side
and then, without changing the test piece, it was deflected in the opposite direction. This principle is described
[4]
in ISO 2493-2. The method is based on TAPPI Test Method T 489 om-04 .

NOTE 1 See ISO 5628 for a detailed description of the two-point loading principle.
This part of ISO 2493 applies to the measurement of the bending resistance within the range 20 mN to
10 000 mN. It is not applicable to corrugated board but can be applicable to the components of such board.
The bending angle is 15° and the bending length is 50 mm.
For samples having a bending resistance that is too low to measure with a bending length of 50 mm, a shorter

IMPORTANT — The results obtained when using different bending lengths will not be comparable.
For boards that tend to be permanently deformed if bent through 15°, the half bending angle, i.e. 7,5°, can be

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes nationaux de
normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des Normes internationales est en général confiée
aux comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du
comité technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non
gouvernementales, en liaison avec l'ISO participent également aux travaux. L'ISO collabore étroitement avec
la Commission électrotechnique internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les Normes internationales sont rédigées conformément aux règles données dans les Directives ISO/CEI,
Partie 2.
La tâche principale des comités techniques est d'élaborer les Normes internationales. Les projets de Normes
internationales adoptés par les comités techniques sont soumis aux comités membres pour vote. Leur
publication comme Normes internationales requiert l'approbation de 75 % au moins des comités membres
votants.
L'attention est appelée sur le fait que certains des éléments du présent document peuvent faire l'objet de
droits de propriété intellectuelle ou de droits analogues. L'ISO ne saurait être tenue pour responsable de ne
pas avoir identifié de tels droits de propriété et averti de leur existence.
L'ISO 2493-1 a été élaborée par le comité technique ISO/TC 6, Papiers, cartons et pâtes, sous-comité SC 2,
Méthodes d'essais et spécifications de qualité des papiers et cartons.
Cette première édition, conjointement avec l'ISO 2493-2, annule et remplace l'ISO 2493:1992, qui a fait l'objet
d'une révision technique. Lors de la révision, l'ISO 2493:1992 a été divisée en deux parties en raison de
principes de mesurage différents. La présente partie de l'ISO 2493 décrit la valeur à gradient de flexion
constant et l'ISO 2493-2 décrit le rigidimètre Taber. La présente partie de l'ISO 2493 permet également
l'utilisation d'une longueur de flexion inférieure et d'un angle de flexion plus faible si nécessaire. Un calcul
facultatif sous forme d'indice a été ajouté. Une déclaration de fidélité a été ajoutée en Annexe A informative.
L'ISO 2493 comprend les parties suivantes, présentées sous le titre général Papier et carton — Détermination
de la résistance à la flexion:

Introduction
L'ISO 2493:1992 regroupait deux principes de détermination de la résistance à la flexion, bien que ces deux
principes étaient très différents.
Le premier principe impliquait la flexion de deux lots d'éprouvettes de même effectif, en inversant les faces
orientées vers le sens de flexion; ce principe est décrit dans la présente partie de l'ISO 2493.
Le second principe utilisait un rigidimètre Taber, dans lequel était insérée l'éprouvette dans le but de lui faire
subir une flexion vers le haut puis, sans changer l'éprouvette, une flexion dans le sens opposé. Ce principe
[4]
est décrit dans l'ISO 2493-2. La méthode est fondée sur la méthode d'essai TAPPI T 489 om-04 .

NORME INTERNATIONALE ISO 2493-1:2010(F)

Papier et carton — Détermination de la résistance à la flexion —
Partie 1:
Valeur à gradient de flexion constant
1 Domaine d'application
La présente partie de l'ISO 2493 spécifie les modes opératoires, fondés sur le principe de charge en deux
points, destinés à la détermination de la résistance à la flexion des papiers et cartons.
[1]
NOTE 1 Voir l'ISO 5628 pour une description plus détaillée du principe de charge en deux points.
La présente partie de l'ISO 2493 est applicable au mesurage de valeurs de la résistance à la flexion
comprises entre 20 mN et 10 000 mN. Elle ne s'applique pas aux cartons ondulés, mais peut s'appliquer à
leurs composants.
L'angle de flexion est de 15° et la longueur de flexion est de 50 mm.
Pour les échantillons présentant une résistance à la flexion qui est trop faible pour être mesurée avec une
longueur de flexion de 50 mm, il est possible d'utiliser une longueur de flexion plus courte, à savoir de 10 mm.
IMPORTANT — Les résultats obtenus avec des longueurs de flexion différentes ne pourront pas être
comparés.
Pour les cartons qui ont tendance à se déformer de manière permanente lorsqu'ils subissent une flexion de
15°, il est possible d'utiliser la moitié de l'angle de flexion, à savoir 7,5°.
NOTE 2 Les résultats issus de rigidimètres Taber et de rigidimètres reposant sur le principe de la valeur à gradient de
flexion constant ne peuvent pas être comparés. Pour cette raison, l'ISO 2493:1992 a été divisée en deux parties.

3 Termes et définitions
Pour les besoins du présent document, les termes et définitions suivants s'appliquent.
3.1
force de flexion
force requise pour fléchir une éprouvette rectangulaire fixée à l'une de ses extrémités, mesurée dans les
conditions spécifiées dans la présente partie de l'ISO 2493
3.2
résistance à la flexion
moyenne de tous les mesures valides de la force de flexion (3.1), calculée comme spécifié dans la présente
partie de l'ISO 2493
NOTE La résistance à la flexion est exprimée en newtons ou en millinewtons.
3.3
longueur de flexion
distance radiale constante entre la ligne d'encastrement et le point d'application de la force sur l'éprouvette
NOTE Voir l à la Figure 1.
3.4
angle de flexion
angle de rotation de la mâchoire qui passe de sa position initiale à la position à laquelle la résistance à la
flexion est mesurée
3.5
longueur libre
longueur totale de la partie de l'éprouvette qui dépasse de la mâchoire
NOTE Voir L à la Figure 1.
3.6
indice de résistance à la flexion
résistance à la flexion divisée par le grammage au cube
4 Principe
Mesurage de la force nécessaire pour fléchir d'un angle spécifié une éprouvette fixée à l'une de ses
extrémités, la force étant appliquée à la longueur de flexion spécifiée (50 mm ou 10 mm). La résistance à la
flexion est calculée en moyennant les résultats de mesurage de la force.
5 Appareillage
5.1 Dispositif de découpe, destiné à la préparation des éprouvettes avec l'exactitude requise, par
exemple une cisaille à deux lames ou un emporte-pièce.
5.2 Rigidimètre (voir Figure 1), constitué des composants suivants.
5.2.1 Mâchoire (5), de largeur supérieure ou égale à 38 mm et de longueur supérieure ou égale à 20 mm,
réglable dans la direction perpendiculaire au plan de l'éprouvette, destinée à maintenir l'éprouvette. Dans sa
position initiale, la mâchoire maintient l'éprouvette dans le plan vertical. La mâchoire doit pouvoir tourner
autour de l'axe formé par la ligne d'encastrement à une vitesse constante de (5,0  0,5)°/s jusqu'à atteindre
un angle de flexion de (15,0  0,3)°. Si nécessaire, il est possible d'utiliser un angle de flexion de (7,5  0,3)°;
voir Article 10.

5.2.2 Couteau (2), installé de façon à être perpendiculaire au déplacement initial de l'éprouvette (3),
appliquant une force au milieu de la largeur de l'éprouvette.
La longueur du bord du couteau est de (16  2) mm et le bord est parallèle à l'axe de rotation (4) de la
mâchoire. Le bord est émoussé et la distance le séparant de l'axe de rotation de la mâchoire (l) est de
(50,0  0,1) mm. Si nécessaire, cette distance (l) peut être réglée à (10,0  0,1) mm.
5.2.3 Dispositif de mesurage de la force (1), exercée sur le bord du couteau par l'éprouvette lorsqu'elle
subit une flexion de (15,0  0,3)°, ou si nécessaire une flexion de (7,5  0,3)° (voir Article 10). L'exactitude des
mesures de la force comprises entre 0 mN et 100 mN doit être de 5 % et l'exactitude des mesures
supérieures à 100 mN doit être de 2 %.
Le déplacement du capteur en cours de mesurage doit être inférieur à 0,05 mm sur toute la plage de
mesurage. Le capteur de force présente une faible sensibilité aux forces latérales.
