direction (TD).In general, the properties of plastics are influenced by testing environment (e.g.temperature and humidity), so film strip samples were conditioned at 23±2 ºC for 40hours in controlled laboratory environment, prior to the testing.The speed of testing can be determined from the experimental initial strain rate asspecified ASTM standard D882. The rate of grip separation was determined for thepurpose of the experiment from the initial strain rate as follows: A = BCWhere:A = rate of grip separation, mm (or in.)/min,B = initial distance between grips, mm (or in.), andC = initial strain rate, mm/mm·min (or in. /in·min).The initial strain rates of the experiment were chosen at 2 in/in·min and 10 in
