Methods of test for pulp and paper, Method 440: Determination of air permeance (medium range) — Bendtsen method

Adopts ISO5636-3:2013, which specifies the Bendtsen method for determining the air permeance of paper and board using the Bendtsen apparatus. It is applicable to papers and boards which have air permeances between 0.35μm/(Pa.s) and 15μm/(Pa.s) when tested with the Bendtsen apparatus.
