Scope

4.1 Air permeability is an important factor in the performance of vacuum cleaner bag filter media, because it is a direct indicator of the resistance to air flow. It may also indicate the size of vacuum cleaner bag needed to achieve the desired air flow volume.

4.2 Performance specifications, both industrial and military, have been set up on the basis of air permeability and are used in the purchase of materials where permeability is of interest.

4.3 Since air permeability is not a linear function of pressure differential between paper surfaces, all tests should be made at a prescribed pressure differential, 0.5 in. (12.7 mm) of water.

1.1 This specification covers procedures to be followed for qualifying papers to be used in the manufacture of vacuum cleaner bags and filters. The filtration efficiency of the paper is not evaluated with the use of these test methods.

1.2 The procedures appear in the following sections:

Procedure	Sections
Air Permeability (Test Method D737)	3-5
Basis Weight (TAPPI Test Method T 410)	6-8
Bursting Strength (Mullen Test) (TAPPI Test Method T 403)	9-11
Internal Tearing Resistance (TAPPI Test Method T 414)	12-14
