<p>This document specifies a method for the determination of tear resistance based on the action of an active force applied to a notched test piece.</p>
<p>The test can be carried out on:</p>
<ul>
<li>test pieces that have been conditioned in a standard atmosphere; or</li>
<li>test pieces that have undergone pre-treatment, e.g. water immersion.</li>
</ul>
<p>The results obtained by this method cannot be compared with those obtained by methods involving constant rate of tear.</p>
