The ASTM E171/E171M-11 (2020) standard specifies standard environmental conditions for regulating and testing Flexible Barrier Encasement materials, such as paper and plastics. The standard defines the temperature and Humidity required during testing to reduce variation in test results due to fluctuations in Temperature Humidity. Suitable for situations where precise control of environmental conditions is required, such as comparing laboratory results or evaluating the effect of Temperature Humidity on material performance. While many materials do not exhibit significant variation under routine environments, adjustments should be considered under specific test conditions to ensure accuracy. This specification does not cover all factors that may affect material performance, such as time, light, etc.
