Purpose and Scope1.1 This method presents individualprocedures for the quantitative determi-nation of moisture content, nonfibrouscontent and fiber com
10、position of textiles.1.2 The procedures for the determina-tion of fiber composition include me-chanical, chemical and microscopicalmethods. They are applicable to blends ofthe following generic classes:Natural Fibers Man-Made FibersCotton AcetateHair AcrylicHemp ModacrylicLinen Nylon (see 17.1)Ramie
11、 OlefinSilk PolyesterWool RayonSpandex2. Uses and Limitations2.1 The procedure given for the re-moval of nonfibrous materials will re-move most, but not all, of these compo-nents. Each treatment is applicable onlyto certain categories of these substancesand no general scheme can be given thatis all
12、inclusive. Some of the newer fin-ishes may present special problems andthe analyst will have to deal with thesecases as they arise. Thermosetting resinsand crosslinking latices are not only diffi-cult to remove but in some cases cannotbe wholly removed without destroyingthe fiber. When it is necessa
13、ry to modifya procedure, or use a new one, one shouldmake sure that the fibrous portion of thespecimen under test is not attacked. Fibercomposition is generally expressed eitheron the oven-dry weight of the textile asreceived or on the oven-dry weight of theclean fiber after nonfibrous materials are
14、first removed from the textile before thefiber analysis is carried out, or if the treat-ments described in Section 9 are incapa-ble of removing them, any such materialspresent will increase the percentage ofthe fiber constituent with which they areremoved during the analysis.2.2 The procedure for de
15、termining fi-ber composition by mechanical separa-tion is applicable to those textileswherein the different fibers making up itscomposition are segregated in separateyarns, or plies, in the textile product.2.3 The chemical procedures for fibercomposition described herein are applica-ble to most of t
16、he current, commercialproduction fibers within each genericclass listed. Known exceptions are notedin Table II. However, there may be in-stances in which a method may not befully adequate for a newly developed fi-ber falling within one of the listed genericclasses and for re-used and/or physicallyor
17、 chemically modified fibers. Cautionshould be exercised when applying thesemethods to such cases.2.4 The microscopical procedures for fi-ber composition are applicable to all fibersand their accuracy depends to a consider-able extent upon the ability of the analystto identify the individual fibers p
18、resent.However, owing to the tedious nature ofthis technique, its use is generally limitedto those mixtures which cannot be sepa-rated mechanically or chemically; e.g.,mixtures of hair and wool and mixtures ofcotton, linen, hemp and/or ramie.3.

Sampling7.1 It is not
41、 possible to give specific in-structions for taking a laboratory testsample from all types of textile materialsto which these methods may be applica-ble; but a few general recommendationswill be given.7.1.1 The sample should be as repre-sentative as possible of the lot of materialfrom which it was t
42、aken.7.1.2 If a reasonably large lot is avail-able, and if it is possible to do so, sam-plings should be taken from different,widely separated areas or parts of the lot.7.1.3 In the case of fabrics where thereis a definite repetition in the pattern, thesample should include all yarns in a com-plete
43、pattern (see 17.6).7.1.4 In the case of yarns, not less thana 2-meter length should be taken.Test Methods8. Moisture Content8.1 Procedure. Place not less than 1 gof the textile to be tested in a previouslytared weighing bottle and immediatelyreplace the cover. Weigh to the nearest0.1 mg using the an
44、alytical balance andrecord the weight. Place the uncoveredweighing bottle containing the specimenin an oven maintained at 105-110C for1.5 h. At the end of the time period, re-move the bottle from the oven, immedi-ately replace the cover and put it in thedesiccator. When the bottle and contentshave c
45、ooled to room temperature, removethem from the desiccator and reweigh.Repeat the heating and reweighing pro-cess for periods of 30 min until theweight is constant to within 0.001 g andrecord the constant weight.8.2 Calculations.8.2.1 Calculate the moisture content ofthe specimen as follows:where:M =
46、 moisture content, percent.A = weight of sample before drying +bottle.B = weight of sample after drying +bottle.T = tare weight of weighing bottle.9.
