1、Designation: D 3217 07Standard Test Methods forBreaking Tenacity of Manufactured Textile Fibers in Loop orKnot Configurations1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 3217; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revisio

2、n, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These test methods cover the measurement of thebreaking tenacity of manufactured textile fibers taken

3、fromfilament yarns, staple, or tow fiber, either crimped or un-crimped, and tested in either a double loop or as a strandformed into a single overhand knot.1.2 Methods for measuring the breaking tenacity of condi-tioned and wet (immersed) fibers in loop and knot form areincluded.1.3 Elongation in lo

4、op or knot tests has no known signifi-cance, and is usually not recorded.1.4 The basic distinction between the procedures describedin these test methods and those included in Test MethodsD 2101 is the configuration of the specimen, that is, either as adouble loop or in the configuration of a single

5、overhand knot.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2

Summary of Test Methods4.1 Single-fiber specimens in the form of a loop as de-scribed in 9.4.1 are broken on a constant-rate-of-extension typetesting machine at a predetermined rate of elongation and thebreaking force is determined.4.2 Single-fiber specimens in the f

10、orm of a knot as de-scribed in 9.4.2 are broken on a constant-rate-of-extension typetesting machine at a predetermined rate of elongation, and thebreaking force is determined.4.3 The breaking tenacity is calculated from the breakingforce registered on the force-elongation curve and the previ-ously d

11、etermined linear density.5. Significance and Use5.1 Both the loop breaking tenacity and the knot breakingtenacity, calculated from the breaking force measured underthe conditions specified herein and the linear density of thefiber, are fundamental properties that are used to establishlimitations on

12、fiber-processing and upon their end-use appli-cations. Physical properties, such as brittleness, not welldefined by tests for breaking force and elongation can beestimated from the ratio of breaking tenacity measured in loopor knot tests, or both, and the normal tenacity as measured byTest Method D

17、en using this test method for acceptance testing, the statis-tical bias, if any, between the laboratory of the purchaser andthe laboratory of the supplier should be determined with eachcomparison being based on testing specimens randomly drawnfrom one sample of material of the type being evaluated.6

18、. Apparatus and Reagents6.1 Tensile Testing Machine, conforming to SpecificationD76 for Constant-Rate-of-Specimen-Extension-(CRE) typemachines, having a full-scale capacity ranging from 2 to 100 gand equipped with provisions for breaking fibers immersed ina liquid if such tests on a wet specimen are

19、 desired.6.2 Clamps, with flat jaws for gripping the fiber specimensdesigned to minimize slippage in the clamps during the tests, or6.2.1 Tabs, of thin plastic or other material for use withcementing techniques, and6.2.2 Cement or AdhesiveThe adhesive must bind the tabto the fiber without affecting

20、an appreciable solution of thelatter or any change in the moisture content of the specimen.6.3 Wetting Agent (0.1 % solution)Use a nonionic aque-ous solution.6.4 Jig, to aid in accurately mounting specimens on tabs atthe specified gage length.7. Sampling7.1 Lot SamplingAs a lot sample for acceptance

21、 testing,take at random the number of shipping containers directed inthe applicable material specification or other agreement be-tween the purchaser and the supplier, such as an agreement touse Practice D 3333 or Practice D 2258. Consider shippingcontainers to be the primary sampling units.NOTE 1An

22、adequate specification or other agreement between thepurchaser or the supplier requires taking into account the variabilitybetween shipping units, between packages, ends, or other laboratorysampling unit within a shipping unit if applicable, and within specimensfrom a single package, end, or other l

23、aboratory sampling unit to providea sampling plan with a meaningful producers risk, consumers risk,acceptable quality level, and limiting quantity level.7.2 Laboratory SampleAs a laboratory sample for accep-tance testing, take at random from each shipping container inthe lot sample the number of lab

24、oratory sampling units asdirected in an applicable material specification or other agree-ment between the purchaser and the supplier such as anagreement to use Practice D 3333 or Practice D 2258. Prefer-ably, the same number of laboratory sampling units are takenfrom each shipping container in the l

25、ot sample. If differingnumbers of laboratory sampling units are to be taken fromshipping containers in the lot sample, determine at randomwhich shipping containers are to have each number of labora-tory units drawn.7.2.1 For Staple FiberTake 50-g samples from laboratorysampling units.7.2.2 For Slive

26、r (or Top) or TowTake 1 m from theleading end which has a clean, uniform appearance.7.2.3 For YarnsPrepare at least a 50-m skein from eachpackage.7.3 Test SpecimensFrom each laboratory sampling unit,take ten specimens at random. If the standard deviationdetermined for the ten specimens is more than

27、a value agreedupon between the purchaser and the supplier, continue testingin groups of ten specimens from the same laboratory samplingunit in the container until the standard deviation for allspecimens tested is not more than the agreed to value or, byagreement, stop testing after a specified numbe

28、r.7.3.1 Carefully remove twist before taking specimens fromyarn. Using tweezers and grasping the specimens at the ends,gently remove the required number of specimens from thelaboratory sampling units for testing. In some cases, if speci-mens are not to be tested immediately, place them on anidentifi

Mount the specimen with one end ineach of the clamps, removing slack without stretching the f

35、iber.The knot should be located midway between the clamps. Tabsmay be attached to the fibers to assist in holding the specimens.If tabs are used, they define the nominal gage length of the fiberspecimen and are best located with the aid of a jig.

The components of variance expressedas coefficients of variation were calculated to be the values inTable 1.12.2 PrecisionFor the components of variance in Table 2,two averages of observed values should be considered signi
