Summary of Method4.1 Atest sample is mounted in a special clamping fixture tothe base of a tensile testing machine. A hook
10、 (for loopsspecimen) or a tuft clamp (for cut pile specimen) are used toremove a specimen from the sample. The force to pull thespecimen free from the test sample is measured as the tuft bind.5. Significance and Use5.1 Test Method D1335 for tuft bind of pile yarn floorcoverings is being used for acc
11、eptance testing of commercialshipments. Comparative tests as directed in 5.1.1 may beadvisable.5.1.1 In case of a dispute arising from differences inreported test results using this test method, the purchaser andthe supplier should conduct comparative tests to determine ifthere is a statistical bias
12、 between their laboratories. Competentstatistical assistance is recommended from the investigation ofbias. As a minimum, the two parties should take a group of testsamples that are homogeneous as possible and are from a lot ofmaterial of the type in question. The test samples should thenbe randomly
13、assigned in equal numbers to each laboratory fortesting. The average results from the two laboratories should becompared using appropriate statistical analysis, and a probabil-ity level chosen by the two parties before testing begun. If abias is found, either its cause must be found and corrected or

16、r Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards, Guides and Recomm
17、endations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.1the purchaser and the supplier must agree to interpret futuretest results with consideration to the known bias.5.2 The satisfactory performance of a pile yarn floor cover-ing depends to a considerable exten
18、t on the maintenance of itsoriginal appearance. In a cut pile yarn floor covering aninadequate tuft bind may result in complete loss of pile in areasexposed to severe wear. In a looped pile yarn floor coveringwith inadequate tuft bind the pile loops may be pulled out toform unsightly long loops whic
19、h may be hazardous.6. Apparatus6.1 Tensile Testing Machine, Constant-rate-of-extension(CRE) type, conforming to Specification D76, with a capacityselected such that the force required to complete the test fallswithin 15 to 85 % of full scale. A full scale ranging from 1 to25 lbf (4.45 to 111 N) is g
20、enerally adequate. For constant-rate-of-extension (CRE) type and constant-rate-of-traverse (CRT)type machines, the rate is 12 6 0.5 in./min (300 6 12mm/min). In case of controversy the CRE type tensile testingmachine shall prevail.NOTE 1The test results obtained with different types of testingmachin
21、es is not always the same.6.2 Clamps and Jaw FacesThe use of hydraulic or pneu-matic clamping systems with a minimum of 1 by 3 in. (25 by76 mm) serrated or padded faces designed to minimizeslippage in the clamps during testing is recommended. Manualclamping is permitted providing no slippage of the
22、specimen isobserved. The faces shall be parallel and have matching centerswith respect to one another in the same clamp and to thecorresponding jaw face of the other clamp.6.3 Metal Cylindrical Sample Holder, 6.0 6 0.5 in. (152 612 mm) long made from 1.5 6 0.06 in. (38 6 1.5 mm) outsidediameter tubi
23、ng with a section 2.0 6 0.2 in. (50 6 5.0 mm)long and 1.5 6 0.2 in. (38 6 5 mm) wide cut away from thecenter portion of the tubing. See Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. The sampleholder should be constructed in a manner that will permitclamping the test sample in the non-measuring clamp of thetensile testing mach
24、ine or replacement of the non-measuringclamp by the sample holder.6.4 Tuft Clamp, for use with a cut pile specimen. The clampis a tweezer-like device that can be used to grip a single tufttightly enough to ensure removal from the sample withoutslippage. The gripping of the tuft by the tuft clamp is
25、shown inFig. 3. Alternatively, a hemostat3can be used.6.5 Loop Hook, for use with loop pile specimen. The hookshould be designed to readily pass through a tufted loop. Thehook should be made of steel wire having a diameter of at least132 in. (0.8 mm). The wire must be constructed so that it can beho
26、oked into the test specimen and then clamped/attached to, orreplace, the measuring clamp of the test machine. (See Fig. 4).7. Sampling7.1 Lot SampleAs a lot sample for acceptance testing, takeat random the number of rolls, or pieces, of pile yarn floorcovering as directed in an applicable material s
27、pecification orother agreement between the purchaser and the supplier.Consider the rolls, or pieces, of pile yarn floor covering to bethe primary sampling units. In the absence of such agreement,take one roll or piece from the lot to be tested.NOTE 2An adequate specification or other agreement betwe
28、en thepurchaser and supplier requires taking into account the variability betweenrolls or pieces of pile yarn floor covering and between specimens from aroll or pieces of pile yarn floor covering to provide a sampling plan witha meaningful producers risk, consumers risk, acceptable quality level,and
29、 limiting quality level.3Hemostats suitable for this purpose can be obtained from many laboratoryequipment suppliers.FIG. 1 Relative Position of Cylinder Opening, Cylinder, theCylinder, Hook or Tuft Clamp and the Carpet SampleFIG. 2 Cylinder ConfigurationD1335 17127.2 Laboratory SampleFor acceptance
30、 testing, cut a sec-tion extending the full width of the pile yarn floor covering andat least 4 in. (100 mm) longer than the test sample requested in7.3, from each roll, or piece, in the lot. For rolls of pile floorcovering, take a sample that will exclude fabric with visibledamage.7.3 Test SampleFr
31、om each laboratory sampling unit, cutfive test samples with the longer direction parallel to themachine direction. Consider the long direction as the directionof test. Cut each test sample 6 by 8 in. (150 by 200 mm). Thetest sample should be taken no nearer to the edge than 5 % ofthe pile yarn floor
32、 covering width.7.3.1 If the pile floor covering is back coated only, exercisecare in handling the sample to prevent breaking, or otherwisedisturbing, the back coating.7.4 Test SpecimensTest three specimens from each testsample. A specimen is a tuft leg or loop. In cases where a pileyarn floor cover
33、ing contains both cut and uncut pile, test onlythe uncut (loop).NOTE 3If the uncut (loop) is satisfactory, the cut pile will be adequate.7.5 Test ResultThe test result is the average for the threespecimens in a test sample.8. Preparation and Verification of Apparatus8.1 Tensile Testing Machine, A co
34、nstant-rate-of extension(CRE) type conforming to Specification D76 with a constantrate-of-traverse of 12 6 0.5 in./min (300 6 12 mm/min) ispreferred. A constant-rate-of-traverse (CRT) type tensile test-ing machine conforming to Specification D76 and operated atthe same speed is permitted.8.2 If requ
35、ired, replace the nonmeasuring clamp of the testmachine with the sample holder described in 6.3.8.3 Replace the measuring clamp of the test machine with,or attach to the measuring clamp of the test machine, the tuftclamp described in 6.4 or the loop-hook described in 6.5depending on which is require
36、d for the type of pile yarn floorcovering under test (Note 3).8.3.1 Because the tuft clamp or loop hook is attached to, orreplaces, the usual measuring clamp of the test machine,compensate for the effect of the altered mass of the clamp toretain the previous verification of the testing machine.9. Co
37、nditioning9.1 Condition the specimen in the standard atmosphere fortesting textiles in accordance with Practice D1776.10. Procedure10.1 Cut Pile Yarn Floor Covering:10.1.1 Test the conditioned specimens in the standard atmo-sphere for testing textiles.10.1.2 Mount the test sample on the sample holde
38、r and placein the stationary clamp jaws with the rows of tufts (machinedirection) at right angles to the long axis of the holder in sucha position that the tuft to be tested is approximately centeredover the cut away portion of the holder. The tension on the testsample should be uniform across the c
39、lamp width so that thesample presents an undistorted cylindrical surface over the cutaway section of the sample holder. Locate a tuft or loop to bepulled out directly below the center of the pulling clamp orhook (see Fig. 1).10.1.3 Select only one specimen for testing from any onerow and allow at le
40、ast 1.0 in. (25 mm) between any tuft testedand the edge of the sample.FIG. 3 Tuft Clamp Device Gripping Tuft LegFIG. 4 Loop Hook Secured in the Upper Clamp (Note the hookhas been passed through the loop)D1335 171310.1.4 Using the tuft clamp grip one tuft leg (Fig. 3). Makecertain that all fibers for
41、ming the tuft leg are securely grippedby the tuft clamp. If multiple, single yarn ends form a leg,combine all the yarn ends, and test as one end. Take care not topinch, “break the back” or otherwise deform the test sample inthe selection of, and attachment of the clamp to, the specimenunder test.10.
42、1.5 Start the testing machine. Record the maximum forceto remove the tuft to the nearest 0.1 lbf (0.5 N). This force iscalled a tuft bind.10.1.6 If the specimen breaks before it pulls away from thepile floor covering, evaluate the tuft and determine if the breakwas: (a) away from the jaw of the clam
43、p, or (b) at the jaws ofthe clamp. If the break is away from the jaws of the clamp,consider the tuft bind strength of the specimen greater than thestrength of the yarn and record the value. Note that thespecimens tuft bind exceeded the strength for the yarn.Conversely, if the break is at the jaws of
44、 the clamp, discard theresult because the clamping of the specimen damaged the tuftleg. Note that the specimen was discarded because of clampingdamage to the specimen.10.1.7 Test the remaining specimens taking them fromdifferent tuft rows at least 1 in. (25 mm) away from the firstspecimen.10.2 Loop
45、Pile Yarn Floor Covering:10.2.1 Test the conditioned specimens in the standard atmo-sphere for testing textiles.10.2.2 Mount the test sample on the sample holder asdescribed in 10.1.2.10.2.3 Select only one loop for testing from any one row oftufts and allow at least 1 in. (25 mm) between any loop t
46、estedand the edge of the test sample. Insert the loop hook in the loopto be tested. See Fig. 4.NOTE 4If Section 10 is not followed, a spurious value may beobtained because one or both ends of the tested loop may be buried in theback construction for a number of construction repeats.10.2.4 Start the
47、testing machine. Record the maximum forceto remove the loop specimen from the sample to the nearest 0.1lbf (0.5 N). This value is called tuft bind. If the yarn breaksbefore the tuft is removed from the sample, record the resultand note that the tuft blind strength exceeded the yarn strength.10.2.5 T
48、est the remaining specimens taking them from adifferent tuft row.11. Calculation11.1 Calculate the average tuft bind to the nearest 1.0 lbf(0.5 N) for each test sample, each laboratory sampling unit, andthe lot.11.1.1 Tufting machines can produce stitches which crossover other stitches on the back s
49、ide of the material. The stitchesin the plane which are closest to the primary backing, and thosewhich cross over other stitches create a bimodal distribution ofnumbers which should not be used to calculate an “average”value without including an expression of the averages varia-tion (that is, the population range or standard deviation).12.
