13、been prepared under the direction of the Packaging and Freight Containers Standards Committee at the request of the Chemical Industries Association. It had been the intention to include a performance requirement for resistance to degradation by ultraviolet (UV) light together with an appropriate met
14、hod of test. However, methods of test currently available are not considered suitable. The position will be reviewed at a later date according to developments in this area. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are respo
15、nsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages 1 to 8, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has be
16、en updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.

29、ance with the performance requirements in clause 8. 6.3.2 Turned-over and stitched. Where the base closure is effected by a turned-over and stitched seam (see Figure 3) the turnover shall be 20 mm minimum, and the stitch line shall be 10 3 mm from the base so formed and shall pass through all four t
30、hicknesses of material. 6.3.3 Woven. Where the base closure is woven, the woven portion shall extend for 20 mm minimum from the base of the sack and shall be such as to ensure compliance with the performance requirements specified in clause 8. 6.3.4 Bonded. Where the base closure is bonded, the seam
31、 shall be effected by applying capping tape over the ends of the sack and securing by means of an adhesive. The bond shall be such as to ensure compliance with the performance requirements specified in clause 8. 6.4 Longitudinal seams 6.4.1 General. Where longitudinal seams are used, they shall be e
32、ither stitched, woven or bonded and shall be such as to ensure compliance with the performance requirements specified in clause 8. All longitudinal seams shall be along the edge fold except for bonded seams which shall be on the back face in the centre, unless required to be off-set to accommodate p
33、rinting. 6.4.2 Stitched. Where the longitudinal seam is effected by a turned-over and stitched seam (see Figure 3) the turnover shall be 20 mm minimum, and the stitch line shall be 10 3 mm from the outer edge of the seam so formed and shall pass through all four thicknesses of material. 6.4.3 Woven.
34、 Where the longitudinal seam is woven, the woven portion of the seam shall extend 15 mm minimum from the outer edge of the seam, and shall be such as to ensure compliance with the performance requirements specified in clause 8. 6.4.4 Bonded. Where the longitudinal seam is bonded, the edges of the ma
35、terial shall be overlapped 30 mm minimum and bonded with a width of bond of 15 mm minimum. The bond shall be such as to ensure compliance with the performance requirements specified in clause 8.
