3、inued in 1969 because theresponsible subcommittee failed to recommend adoption as standard after several years publication asa tentative. The subcommittee action was based on the members knowledge that the standard did notinclude several fiber types introduced to the textile trade after the methods

4、were published, and thatthe techniques required to identify these fibers were lacking in the text, so that the text had becomeout of date. Reinstatement as a standard using the previously assigned designation was requested sincethe listed procedures were reliable and the text was considered to be th

5、e best available, though notall-inclusive. Extensive editorial changes were made in various sections in 1972, and the methodswere reinstated as D276 72.The methods have been revised completely, emphasizing infrared spectroscopic techniques foridentifying man-made fiber types. Methods for determining

6、 several physical properties and solubilitydata useful for confirming infrared spectral identifications have been included. The longitudinal andcross-section photographs of the various fibers have been omitted since they are published elsewhereand the usefulness for identification is limited. Extens

Differences in tenacity, linear density,bulkiness, or the presence of inert delustrants normally do notinterfere with analytic tests, but chemical modifications (forsuch purposes as increased dyeability with certain dyestuffs)may affect the infrared spectra and some of th

These differences will beevident upon microscopical examination of the fiber and mayinterfere with the measurements of refractive indices

19、 andbirefringence.1.4 Microscopical examination is indispensable for positiveidentification of the several types of cellulosic and animalfibers, because the infrared spectra and solubilities will notdistinguish between species. Procedures for microscopic iden-tification are published in AATCC Method

The analysis scheme based on solubility is very reliable.The infrared technique is a useful adjunct to the solubility testmethod. The other meth

28、rincipal (maximum or mini-mum) refractive indices. Numerically, birefringence is thedifference between the maximum and minimum refractiveindices.3.1.2 densitymass per unit volume.3.1.2.1 DiscussionDue to the volume of included air, theapparent density of fibers and yarns will differ from thedensitie

29、s of the materials of which the fibers and yarns arecomposed. Test results for fiber density will also vary depend-ing on the test method used. Density is commonly expressed asgrams per cubic centimetre (g/cm3), but the preferred term inthe International System of units is kilograms per cubic metre(

30、kg/m3). Multiply g/cm3by 1000 to obtain kg/m3and multiplylb/ft3by 16.018 to obtain kg/m3.3.1.3 fiber birefringence, nthe algebraic difference of theindex of refraction of the fiber for plane polarized light3The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to the list of references at the end ofthis method.

Summary of Test Method4.1 The fiber generic type is identified from its solubility invarious reagents, using a solubility decision scheme (Fig. 1).4.2 Alternatively, infrared spectra of fibers from te

38、xtilematerials to be identified are obtained using a FTIR (FourierTransform Infrared) or a double-beam spectrophotometer.Identification of the fiber generic class is made by analysis ofthe fiber spectrum using a decision chart (Fig. 2).4.3 For plant (native cellulose) and animal hair fibersmicroscop

Significanc

40、e and Use5.1 These test methods are a generally reliable means ofidentifying the generic types of fibers present in a sample oftextile material of unknown composition. The methods aregenerally not useful for distinguishing fibers of the samegeneric class from different manufacturers or for distingui

41、shingdifferent fiber types of the same generic class from oneproducer.5.2 Many fibers are chemically modified by their producersin various ways so as to alter their properties. It is possible forsuch modifications to interfere seriously with the analyses usedin these test methods. Considerable exper

42、ience and diligence ofthe analyst may be necessary to resolve satisfactorily thesedifficulties.5.3 Dyes, lubricants, and delustrants are not present nor-mally in amounts large enough to interfere with the analyses.5.4 These test methods are not recommended for acceptancetesting of commercial shipmen

43、ts because of the qualitativenature of the results and because of the limitations previouslynoted.NOTE 2For statements on precision and bias of the standard quanti-tative test methods for determining physical properties for confirmation offiber identification refer to the cited test method. The prec

44、ision and bias ofthe nonstandard quantitative test methods described are strongly influ-enced by the skill of the operator. The limited use of the test methods forqualitative identification cannot justify the effort that would be necessaryto determine the precision and bias of the techniques.5.5 Qua

45、litative and quantitative fiber identification is ac-tively pursued by Committee RA24 (Fiber Identification) ofAATCC and presented in AATCC Test Method 20 and TestMethod 20A. Since precision and bias development is also partof the AATCC test methods, both AATCC and ASTM D13have agreed that new devel

46、opment will take place in RA24.However, because there is valuable information still present inthe ASTM standards, Test Methods D276 and D629 will bemaintained as active standards by ASTM.6. Sampling, Selection, Preparation, and Number ofSpecimens6.1 The quantity of material per specimen and the numb

47、erof specimens required differ according to the types of analysesthat are to be conducted. It is possible to make an identificationusing a sample of less than 10 mg of each type of fiber present.6.2 In order to identify the components of a textile materialreliably, it is essential that an adequate s

48、ample of each type offiber present be isolated physically, and vice-versa. It is notpossible, in general, to identify the components of a mixture byanalysis of the mixtures infrared spectrum and, in fact, falseconclusions may be drawn if such a procedure is attempted.Comparison of the spectra of unk

49、nown materials to a proper setof reference spectra of various fiber types (see 7.1) can beuseful for avoiding these problems.6.3 An essential first step in isolation and identification offibers is visual examination and physical separation of allvisually different types of fibers in the material. In order toaccomplish this, it is necessary to consider the following:6.3.1 Asingle yarn may be composed of more than one typeof fiber (a blend of polyester and cotton staples, for instance).In such cases it may be impractical to separate the fibersmechanically.
