Significance and Use4.1 Break depends on the fiber structure and on the relation between the grain and other strata of the leather. A fine break, ora grain pattern which shows many fine wrinkles when it is bent to form a con

A coarse break, on the other hand, where a few coarse wrinkles are formed onbending the grain to form a concave surface may indicate that the grain layer is separating from the corium or main stratum

Apparatus5,65.1 Satra Mandrel, consisting of two windows or hollows.5.2 Satra Visual Break Scale, consisting of eight

15、 levels of break ranging from 1, fine, to 8, coarse.6. Test Specimen6.1 The sample for the test should be taken from an agreed area of the hide, and shall be a piece of leather 2 by 4 in. (51 by102 mm) with the long dimension perpendicular to the backbone; or a cut shoe part.6.2 Unless otherwise spe

16、cified, one specimen shall be tested from each sample.7. Conditioning7.1 All specimens shall be conditioned according to Practice D1610.8. Procedure8.1 With long dimension of the specimen parallel to the length of the mandrel, bend it with thumb and fingers to bring it intocontact with the outside o

17、f the mandrel, and observe the wrinkles through the windows.8.2 Compare the wrinkle pattern of the specimen with those of the Satra break scale.8.3 The specimen should be rated to the nearest 12-grade, that is, if it appears that the break is better than 4 but not as goodas 3, the break of the leath

18、er should be graded as 312 . Thus, the 8-point scale gives a 15 reading range from 1 to 8 in steps of12 scale unit.9. Report9.1 The report shall include the following:9.1.1 Thickness of the specimen to the nearest 0.2 mm (12 oz), if specified.9.1.2 The rating to the nearest 12-grade.10. Precision an

19、d Bias10.1 Replicate evaluation by individuals, and among laboratories on same and different days will result in errors of less than61 grade.10.2 Method of inducing wrinkles by other than manual means does not seem to affect the break rating.10.3 Precision of repeated observations on some specimens

20、can be seriously affected if regions other than those initiallyobserved through the windows are rated, or if the orientation of the bend is varied. According to the original Satra investigation,colors, including white, cause no difficulty in evaluating break.11. Keywords11.1 break scale; grain patte
