Sugar Project

The document provides a project report on assessing market samples of sugar bags and fertilizer bags according to BIS standards. Key points: - Samples of sugar bags and fertilizer bags were obtained from the market and tested against standards in IS 14968:2015 for sugar bags. - The sugar bag samples were tested for dimensions, mass, fabric properties like strength and elongation. - Test results for the sugar bag samples are presented in a table comparing measured parameters to the BIS standards. - A separate table shows test results for randomly obtained tarpaulin samples, as there is no applicable BIS standard.

SDP BATCH - 34th
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I sincerely thank the management of Lohia group and
Faculty and Instructors, Administrative staff of TTRC for
their support and guidance throughout the three month
in plant training. It was a great learning experience and
shall be very helpful for my career in the future.

INTRODUCTION:
Assessment of market samples of Sugar Bags (50 Kg) & Fertilizers bag is
been done, obtained parameters are been compared with BIS
standards, accordingly remarks are given and conclusion is made.
Samples were taken randomly.

REFERENCES:

The references are been taken from IS 14968:2015 for sugar bags which
are discussed below briet. There is no such Standard for tarpaulin, thus
only the test results are been concluded later.

SUGAR BAG IS 14968:2015


The sacks shall be of following two types depending upon the capacity:
a) Type 1-Sacks having packaging capacity of 50 kg.
b) Type 2Sacks having packaging capacity of 25 kg.

RAW MATERIAL

The high density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP) used for


manufacture of tape shall confirm to the requirements specified in IS
10146 or IS 10910 respectively. The raw material composition mix to be
used for manufacturing of the HDPE/PP woven sacks shall be as agreed
to between the buyer and the seller.

FABRIC
The fabric used in the manufacture of HDPE/PP woven sacks shall be
woven as a tube on circular looms from HDPE/PP tapes having width of
2.5 mm (tolerance of +10 percent) conforming to IS 6192 and IS 11197
respectively and linear density of 111 tex (1 000 denier) for 50 kg sugar
bags and 94 tex (850 denier) for 25 kg sugar bags. The denier of
HDPE/PP tape used in themanufacture of woven fabric/sacks shall be
subjected to the following tolerances: a) + 10 percent on individual
value, and b) +5 percent on average. The construction particulars of
fabric shall be as given in Table 1.

SACKS
The sacks shall be produced from tubular fabric woven as tube on a
circular loom and cut to the required length.
BOTTOM SEAM

The stitching of bottom seam shall be done with two rows of chain
stitch (see IS 10789). The two rows of stitches shall be separated from
each other by minimum 5 mm and the outer stitch shall be minimum 8
mm from the outer edge of the sacks. The stitching shall be done with
double fold over seam to a depth of minimum 25 mm, so that the
stitches pass through a minimum of six layers of the fabric. The number
of stitches/dm shall be 14 + 2. The material used for stitching shall be
UV stabilized HDPE/PP tape as used in the fabric or any other UV
stabilized thread/multifilament yarn suitable for the purpose. The
stitching shall be uniform without any loose thread or knot.

MOUTH

C Completely open mouth of the sack shall be hemmed with a fold of


minimum 5 mm and pcs shall not fray. The loose liner, if required, shall
be inserted inside the sack and snai D hemmed into the mouth with
single henm.

LINER
Required by the buyer, by the buyer, the unlamented sacks shall be
provided with a loose liner of food de virgin LDPE/LLDPE/HMHDPE/PP
conforming to is 10146 or IS 10910. The mass of nose liner shall be 35 +
2 g. The width of the loose liner shall be at least 20 mm more n the
Specified width of the sack and the length of the liner at least 50 mm
more than the pecified length of sack. The botom seam of the loose
liner shall be at least 25 mm from the Dottom edge. The liner shall be
free from pin holes (except for air removal holes), patches, tear, blisters
and any other visible defects

1.The
specified dimensions provide for optimum free space of minimum 20
percent of length when measured along the surface of the fabric from
mouth stitch line of the Sacks up to the surface level of contents.

2.The mass of sack is based on fabrics weighing 106 g/m2 and 96 g/m2
for Type 1 and Type 2 sacks respectively.(Width after ravelling = 50 mm,
Gauge length = 200 mm. 1N=0.102 kgf)

ASSESSMENT RESULTS:

The following table 2 shows the comparison of he measurcd/calculated


parameters win adards for sugar bags as discussed previously, Table 3
shows the measurcu parineters of the tarpaulin samples fomn the
market, randomly taken for the test.
