Abstract
This work deals the creasing characteristics of coated paperboard. It was not clarified to estimate the deformation behavior of creased line from the first peak bending moment Mp1 and the initial gradient C1 of bending moment. In this study, a new prototype testing apparatus has been developed for seeking the bending moment and the side view picture of creased part during repeated folding motion. The permanent (residual) deformation angles, the variance of residual stiffness and the hysteresis characteristics of bending moment were analyzed for the nominal shear strain (the scoring depth) γ . The obtained results were as follows: (1) C1 was characterized with γ, while the second term gradient C2 was characterized with γ and the inverse of tracking angle Θ-1. (2) By introducing the area of closed curve of second term hysteresis ACC, it is revealed that the gradient of ACC was remarkably varied with Θ at near the peak point Mp1.
