适用范围：<p>These test methods are used to indicate the integrity of the container and closure system in the distribution environment.</p> <p>These test methods measure the ability of the container and closure system to prevent leakage when stored or transported upright, inverted, or on the side.</p> <p>These test methods allow for comparison of container/closure designs of threaded and lug-style closures of similar or different materials, or different manufacturers. These tests are suitable for packaging development, engineering and tooling evaluations.</p><p id="s00002">1.1 These test methods may demonstrate container/closure integrity with threaded or lug-style closures by the determination of gross leaks in rigid and semi-rigid containers (up to 4 L [1.06 g]). Such tests may be used to indicate the ability of a liquid container to survive the distribution environment without leaking. These test methods may not be suitable to determine the leak resistance of containers intended for transport of hazardous materials.</p> <p id="s00003">1.2 <span class="italic"><span class="italic">Test Methods</span>: </span> <p id="s00004">1.2.1 <span class="italic"><span class="italic">Test Method A, Shipping Container Vibration and Storage Test</span>, </span> covers the ability of a shipping container and its interior packaging to protect the contents from leakage after transportation induced vibration and high-temperature storage.</p> <p id="s00005">1.2.2 <span class="italic"><span class="italic">Test Method B, Shipping Container Vibration and Vacuum Chamber Test</span>, </span> is suitable for individual containers and is usually less severe than Test Method A. The advantage of Test Method B is the shortness of the test.</p> <p>1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.</p> <p id="s00006">1.4 <span class="italic"> This standard does not purport to address the safety conserns associated with its use.
