It is a measure of diffuse opacity
(paper backing) of white and
near-white papers, previously
known as “printing opacity.” The

Resistance Test. measurement of the resistance
of paperboard to edgewise
compression. Corrugated and
solid fibreboard containers are
subjected to crushing forces in
shipment. This test is used for
two purposes in the evaluation
of the paperboard to be used as
components of such fibreboard
containers: (a) to indicate
edgewise rigidity of the board so
that manufacturing processes
 may be controlled to secure the
desired results, and (b) to
indicate the probable crushing
resistance of the finished
container. This method is
intended only for paperboard
not exceeding 0.49 mm in
thickness.
