Summary of Test Method4.1 A specimen is clamped over an expandable diaphragm.The diaphragm is expanded by fluid pressure to the point ofspecimen rupture. T

9、he difference between the total pressurerequired to rupture the specimen and the pressure required toinflate the diaphragm is reported as the bursting strength.5. Significance and Use5.1 This method for the determination of diaphragm burst-ing strength of knitted, nonwoven and woven fabrics is being

10、used by the textile industry for the evaluation of a wide varietyof end uses.5.2 In cases where test results obtained using the proceduresin Test Method D 3786 have not been correlated with actualperformance, Test Method D 3786 is considered satisfactoryfor acceptance testing of commercial shipments

11、 of textilefabrics for bursting strength since the method has been usedextensively in the trade for acceptance testing. In cases wheredisagreement arising from differences in values reported by thepurchaser and the supplier when using Test Method D 3786 foracceptance testing, the statistical bias, i

12、f any, between thelaboratory of the purchaser and the laboratory of the suppliershould be determined with comparison based on testing speci-mens randomly drawn from one sample of material of the typebeing evaluated.NOTE 2The kind of load transfer and stretch that occur when knitted1This test method

Apparat

16、us and Materials6.1 Inflated Diaphragm Bursting Tester4 A testing ma-chine that meets the requirements of 6.1.1-6.1.4. Mounted so asto be free of externally induced vibrations.6.1.1 Clamps, for firmly and uniformly securing the testspecimen between two annular, parallel, and durable surfaces,without

17、 slippage during the test. Use sufficient pressure toeffect the practicable minimization of slippage The upper andlower clamping surfaces shall have a circular coaxial apertureof 31 6 0.75 mm (1.22 6 0.03 in.) in diameter: The surfacesof the clamps shall be durable and any edge which might causea cu

18、tting action shall be rounded to a radius of not more than0.4 mm. The lower clamp shall be integral with the chamber inwhich a pressure medium inflates the rubber diaphragm.NOTE 3Since the clamping mechanism and clamping surfaces aresubject to considerable wear and distortion, they should be examine

19、dperiodically and repaired or replaced when necessary. The effectiveness ofgrooving the clamping surfaces in the manner specified has not beendetermined.6.1.2 DiaphragmA diaphragm of molded synthetic ornatural rubber, clamped between the lower clamping plate andthe rest of the apparatus so that befo

20、re the diaphragm isstretched by pressure underneath it the center of its uppersurface is nominally level with the plane of the clampingsurface. The diaphragm should be inspected frequently forpermanent distortion and renewed as necessary.6.1.3 Pressure GageThe instrument must be fitted with apressur

21、e measuring system, accurate throughout the entirerange of its scale to within a value of1%ofitsmaximumcapacity. For those instruments with a Bourdon type gage thecapacity of the gage shall be such that the individual readingswill be not less than 25 % nor more than 75 % of the totalcapacity of the

22、gage.6.1.4 Pressure SystemA means of applying controlledincreasing pressure to the underside of the diaphragm until thespecimen bursts. This can be achieved by two methods;hydraulic or pneumatic.6.1.4.1 Hydraulic Pressure is produced by a fluid displacedat the rate of 95 6 5 mL/min. The fluid is dis

23、placed by a pistonin the pressure chamber of the apparatus. The recommendedchamber fluid is USP chemically pure 96 % glycerin.NOTE 4Ethylene glycol may be substituted for the glycerine ifdesired.6.1.4.2 Pneumatic Pressure is produced by controlling theflow of clean dry air through a valve. The valve

24、 is configuredas per 11.4.16.1.5 Aluminum Foil For Calibration of Tester5Pieces ofpretested aluminum sheet having a known bursting strength inthe range of 70 to 790 kPa (10 to 115 psi) are used for checkingthe overall performance of the tester6.1.6 Pressure Recording.6.1.6.1 Hydraulic InstrumentsMea

25、ns shall be provided atthe instant of rupture of the specimen for stopping any furtherapplication of the loading pressure and for holding unchangedthe contents of the pressure chamber until the total burstingpressure and the pressure required to inflate the diaphragmindicated on the gage have been r

26、ecorded.6.1.6.2 Pneumatic InstrumentsMeans shall be providedfor recording the loading pressure at the point of rupture.Diaphragm correction (tare pressure) is achieved by inflatingthe diaphragm to the same distension recorded at bursting andrecording the amount of pressure to achieve this.7.

27、g7.1 Lot SampleAs a lot sample for acceptance testing,take at random the number of rolls of fabric directed in anapplicable material specification or other agreement betweenthe purchaser and the supplier. Consider rolls of fabric to be theprimary sampling units.NOTE 5An adequate specification or oth

28、er agreement between thepurchaser and the supplier requires taking into account the variabilitybetween rolls of fabric and between specimens from a swatch from a rollof fabric to provide a sampling plan with a meaningful producers risk,consumers risk, acceptable quality level, and limiting quality l

29、evel.7.2 Laboratory SampleAs a laboratory sample for accep-tance testing, take a full width swatch 1 m (1 yd) long from theend of each roll of fabric in the lot sample, after first discardinga minimum of1m(1yd)offabric from the very outside of theroll. From each roll or piece of circular knit fabric

30、 selectedfrom the lot sample, cut a band at least 305 mm (1 ft) wide7.3 Test SpecimensCut ten test specimens from eachswatch in the laboratory sample with each specimen being 125mm (5 in.) square.8. Calibration8.1 Routine Verification of Testing MachineCheck theoperation of the testing machine at le

31、ast once each month bybursting five specimens of standard aluminum sheet. Theaverage of the indicated bursting resistance for the fivespecimens of aluminum sheet should be between 65 % of thatmarked on the package of the pretested aluminum sheetstandard.8.2 Calibration of Pressure Measuring System C

32、alibratethe pressure measuring system, while inclined at the sameangle at which it is used, by means of a dead-weight tester ofthe piston type. Alternatively, a traceable electronic pressuregage may be used or other calibration instrumentation recom-mended by the equipment manufacturer. Such calibra

33、tion ispreferably carried out with the gage in its normal position inthe tester.8.3 Where agreement is not attained, check the testeraccording to the instructions given in Tappi Method T-403OS-74.NOTE 6Possible causes of low readings are gage error (bias ornonlinearity), gage expansivity too high, e

34、xcessive gage pointer friction,air in hydraulic system or gage, diaphragm collapsed too far at zero, andlow pumping rate (hand-driven tester). Possible causes of high readingsare: gage error (bias nonlinearity), loose gage pointer (overshoot), gagepointer bent by stop-pin, insufficient clamping forc

36、sheet testing, high pumping rate(hand-driven tester), and double bursts. If a gage is accidentally usedbeyond its capacity, it must be recalibrated before it is used again.9. Conditioning9.1 Bring the specimens (or laboratory samples) from theprevailing atmosphere to moisture equilibrium for testing

37、 in thestandard atmosphere for textile testing as directed in PracticeD 1776.10. Selection and Number of Specimens10.1 Unless otherwise agreed upon, as when specified in anapplicable material specification, take ten specimens of thelaboratory sample(s) of fabric. Each specimen shall be at least125 m

38、m (5 in.) square, or a circle 125 mm (5 in.) in diameter.Specimens need not be cut for testing. No two specimens fromknitted fabric should contain the same wale or course yarns.Take no specimens nearer the selvage than one tenth the fabricwidth. This restriction does not apply to tubular knitted fab

39、ric.11. Procedure11.1 Make all tests on specimens conditioned in the stan-dard atmosphere for testing textiles as directed in 9.1.11.2 Hand Driven Hydraulic Tester:11.2.1 Insert the conditioned specimen under the tripod,drawing the specimen taut across the plate, and clamp speci-men in place by brin

40、ging the clamping lever as far to the rightas possible.NOTE 7For specimens with considerable stretch, it may be necessaryto extend the fabric uniformly over the plate to remove some of the stretchbefore clamping.11.2.2 Rotate the hand wheel, clockwise at a uniform speedof 120 rpm until the specimen

41、bursts.11.2.3 Stop turning the hand wheel at the instant of ruptureof the specimen (see Note 8).11.2.4 Immediately after rupture and in rapid succession,release the clamping lever over the specimen. Immediatelyrelease the strain on the diaphragm by turning the wheelcounterclockwise to its starting p

42、osition and record the pres-sure required to inflate the diaphragm (tare pressure). Recordthe total pressure required to rupture the specimen.NOTE 8If the pressure stops increasing, as indicated by the dial, andthe specimen has not broken, push the operating lever to remove thepressure. Record that

43、the stretch of the fabric exceeds the dimensionallimitations of the tester. If slippage of the specimen is noted, discard theresult and use a new specimen.11.3 Motor-Driven Hydraulic Tester:11.3.1 Insert the specimen between the top and bottomclamp ensuring that the specimen is free from creases and

44、folds. Securely clamp the specimen in place by following themanufacturers instructions appropriate to the machine. Applypressure to the specimen until it bursts.11.3.2 Diaphragm Correction (Tare Pressure)Using thesame settings as employed to burst the specimen, record thepressure required to distend

45、 only the diaphragm to the sameheight as used to burst the specimen.11.4 Pneumatic Tester:11.4.1 Adjust the control valve of the bursting tester so thatthe mean time to distend a specimen to burst falls within(20+/-5) s. Preliminary trials may be needed to fix the correctsetting of the control valve

46、. Time to burst is to be recordedbetween the beginning of vaulting and the bursting of the testspecimen.11.4.2 Clamp the specimen securely. Ensuring that thespecimen does not slip. Place the distension recording deviceinto the measuring position and adjust it to the zero position.Fasten the safety c

47、over in position according to machinerequirements. Apply pressure to the test specimen until thefabric bursts.11.4.3 Diaphragm correction. With the same setting of thecontrol valve as that employed in the above tests, distend thediaphragm without the presence of a test specimen by anamount equal to

48、the mean height at burst of the test specimen.Note the pressure at this distension of the diaphragm as the“diaphragm pressure”.12. Calculation12.1 Calculate the bursting pressure of each specimen bysubtracting the tare pressure required to inflate the diaphragmfrom the total pressure required to rup

49、ture the specimen.12.2 Report the pressure reading of each individual speci-men and the average for each laboratory sampling unit and thelot.12.3 Report the type of bursting tester used.13. Report13.1 State that the specimens were tested as directed in TestMethod D 3786 using the Inflated Diaphragm Bursting Tester.Describe the material or product sampled and the method ofsampling used.13.2 Report the bursting strength of each individual speci-men and their average in kPa (psi).13.3 Report the type of bursting tester used.14.
