The APR specifies that plaque sample meet the following parameters in comparisonto the control in order to be acceptable:A. L* >82 for all BlendsB. ∆b* and ∆a* <1.5C. Haze (Control not to exceed <9.5%, Test not to exceed >20%)

The test plaque samples are acceptable per the APR guidelines.

Conclusions

This study examines a shrink sleeve substrate material using theAPR’s Sleeve Label Substrate Protocol guidelines the followingconclusions were determined from testing.

The test label had a density close to 1.0 which allowed most of thelabel flakes to float and be collected during the Sink/Float step of theprotocol.

The label passes the specifications according to the APR’s SleeveLabel Critical Guidance Document.
