This Standard specifies a method for measuring the bursting strength of board submitted to increasing hydraulic pressure.
It is applicable to all types of board (including corrugated and solid fibreboard) having bursting strengths within the range 350 kPa to 5 500 kPa. It is also applicable to papers or boards having bursting strengths 250 kPa or over to and excluding 350 kPa if the
paper or board is to be used to prepare a material of higher bursting strength, such as corrugated board. In such cases, the measurements will not necessarily have the
accuracy or precision stated for this method and it is necessary to include a note in the test report stating that the test gave results that were below the minimum value required by the method.
In the absence of any commercial agreement as to which method should be used for materials with bursting strengths between 350 kPa and 1 400 kPa, all materials
with bursting strengths below 600 kPa, except components of solid and corrugated fibreboard, should be tested by JIS P 8112 and the remainder by this Standard.
NOTE 1 The International Standard corresponding to this Standard is as follows.
ISO 2759 : 2001 Board--Determination of bursting strength (MOD)
In addition, symbols which denote the degree of correspondence in the contents between the relevant International Standard and JIS are
IDT (identical), MOD (modified), and NEQ (not equivalent) according to ISO/IEC Guide 21.
NOTE 2 Annex JA is due to be withdrawn as of 31 March, 2014 and delete JIS B 0601 from the normative reference.
