Paper and board — Determination of bending stiffness — Resonance method
ISO 5629:2017 specifies a method for the determination of bending stiffness using the resonance method. This method gives only a single result for each test piece tested, although in general, bending stiffness values may depend on which surface of the material forms the inner surface of the arc resulting from bending forces. The bending stiffness of a very wide range of papers and boards can be measured using this method. However, for some materials, such as those listed below, the measured numerical values will not be strictly identical with bending stiffness as defined in 3.1: a) multi-ply papers and boards in which the component plies can move separately during a test; b) papers and boards with appreciable curl, especially if the axis of the curl is in the long direction of the test piece; c) some soft papers with grammage below about 40 g/m2. This method is not applicable to corrugated boards.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Introduction
There are many methods of measuring the resistance of paper and board to bending forces. Because of
the visco-elastic nature of the material, results will depend to a considerable extent on the test method
used. In this method, the bending stiffness is determined under dynamic conditions (vibration) using
only a relatively small bending angle.

Paper and board — Determination of bending stiffness —
Resonance method
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of bending stiffness using the resonance method.
This method gives only a single result for each test piece tested, although in general, bending stiffness
values may depend on which surface of the material forms the inner surface of the arc resulting from
bending forces.
The bending stiffness of a very wide range of papers and boards can be measured using this method.
However, for some materials, such as those listed below, the measured numerical values will not be
strictly identical with bending stiffness as defined in 3.1:
a) multi-ply papers and boards in which the component plies can move separately during a test;
b) papers and boards with appreciable curl, especially if the axis of the curl is in the long direction
of the test piece;
2
c) some soft papers with grammage below about 40 g/m .
This method is not applicable to corrugated boards.

3.1
bending stiffness
S
moment of the resistance per unit width that a paper or board offers to bending in the region of elastic
deformation. It can be defined mathematically by Formula (1):

S= (1)

ISO 5629:2017(E)
where
E is the modulus of elasticity, i.e. Young's modulus;
I is the second moment of area (moment of inertia) of the cross-sectional area, about an axis
through the centre of that area, in its plane, and perpendicular to the direction of bending;
b is the width of the test piece.
4 Principle
Determination, under standard conditions, of the vibrational resonant length of a test piece clamped at
one end. Calculation of the bending stiffness from this value and the grammage of the material.
The vibrational resonant length of a material, in one direction, when it is subjected to vibration of a
given frequency, depends on its bending stiffness in that direction and its grammage.
5 Apparatus (see Figure 1)
Usual laboratory apparatus and the following.
5.1 Clamping system.
The clamp shall consist of two flat parallel metal plates which can be so adjusted as to give a separation
and a clamping pressure such as to just permit the test piece to be pulled through the clamp. The clamp
shall be so arranged that a test piece can project vertically in both directions through the clamp. The
dimensions of the clamp are not critical, but the width shall be greater than the width of the test piece
used. Generally, a width of slightly more than 25 mm is satisfactory.
The upper edges of the clamp may be rounded, in which case, the radius of curvature shall be less
than 0,1 mm.
1)
5.2 Means of vibrating the clamp in a horizontal plane, perpendicularly to the plane of the paper, at
a frequency of 25,0 Hz ± 0,1 Hz with an amplitude of not greater than 0,2 mm .
5.3 Means of measuring the length of test piece, projecting above the upper edge of the clamp.
5.4 Stroboscopic lamp, operating at the same frequency and in the same phase as the vibrator, for
illuminating the top edge of the test piece.
5.5 Optional components.
5.5.1 Magnifier, which can be adjusted for viewing the top edge of the test piece.
5.5.2 Movable lower clamp, of non-critical construction, so arranged that with its aid, the test piece
can be pulled (and for some materials, pushed) through the vibrating clamp. This clamp may be suitably
coupled to a measuring device, enabling the resonant length to be read directly from a scale.
