Abstract:
In some applications, film opacity is a key parameter. For instance, the films used for garbage bags should hide the bag's contents. However, films used for some agricultural mulch require a certain level of opacity to prevent weeds from growing.
This brochure details the measurement principles and the test methods used to determine the opacity of black films.
