DIN 53363:2003-10

The object of the testing according to this standard is to determine the resistance to tear propagation of a plastic film under stipulated conditions. The method described in this standard can be applied to products which, by reason of their softness, do not break when secured between the grips of the tensile testing machine. The test procedure allows a comparison of specimens from different products provided specimen thicknesses do not differ by more than 10 %.
