2、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 This test method provides a procedure for evaluatingfabric stability by measuring the resistance to yarn

4、national System ofUnits. “Inch-pound units” is the technically correct name forthe customary units used in the United States. The valuesexpressed in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other.Combining values from the two systems may resu

8、s are used in various prod-ucts such as reinforced plastics, mat-like material, tire cords,electrical insulation, etc. Each of these materials requiresdifferent testing atmospheres. It is the intent of the wide spreadin testing atmosphere to allow testing of glass textiles inrespective laboratories
9、where end-product test atmosphererequirements differ. The test atmospheres for respective prod-ucts should be controlled as specified in Specification E 171. Itis the opinion of ASTM Subcommittee D13.18 that fabricstability of insect screening and louver cloth would not beaffected by the range selec

Summary of Test Method4.1 Samples of the vinyl-coated glass yarn insect screeningor louver cloth are subjected to a breaking force test whereyarns have been severed within the gage length area. The forcerequired to break the fu

Significance and Use5.1 This test method is considered satisfactory for accep-tance testing of commerical shipments since the method hasbeen used
13、 extensively in the trade for acceptance testing.5.1.1 In cases of a dispute arising from differences inreported test results when using this test method for acceptancetesting of commercial shipments, the purchaser and the sup-plier should conduct comparative tests to determine if there isa statisti

Competent statis-tical assistance is recommended for the investigation of bias.As a minimum, the two parties should take a group of testspecimens which are as homogeneous as possible and whichare from a lot of material of the type in question. The testspecimens s

If a bias is found, eitherits cause must be found and corrected or the purchaser and thesuppl

The force at whichyarns in one direction move over yarns in
19、 the oppositedirection is a measure of the bond of fusion. The degree of thebond of fusion on the vinyl-coated glass yarn insect screeningand louver cloth is used for process control. Fabric stabilitywas formerly called resistance to yarn slippage.6. Apparatus6.1 Tensile Testing MachineIn case of di

A lot may constitute all or part of asingle customer order.7.2 Lot SampleAs a lot sample for acceptance testing,take the number of rolls of insect screening or louver clo

In the absence of such an agreement, take the number ofrolls specified in Table 1.NOTE 2An adequate specifi
24、cation or other agreement between thepurchaser and the supplier requires taking into account the variabilitybetween rolls of insect screening or louver cloth and between testspecimens from a swatch or roll of insect screening or louver cloth toproduce a sampling plan with meaningful producers risk,
25、consumersrisk, acceptable quality level, and limiting quality level.7.3 Laboratory SampleAs a laboratory sample for accep-tance testing, proceed as directed in an applicable materialspecification or other agreement between the purchaser and thesupplier. In the absence of such an agreement, use the l
26、otsampling units for the laboratory sampling units. Take a fullwidth swatch,2m(2yd)long, from each selected lot samplingunit of screening or louver cloth. Take swatches after firstdiscarding a minimum of1m(1yd)from the very outside ofthe roll.7.4 Test SpecimensFrom each swatch in the laboratorysampl

Cut alternatelengthwise yarns as shown in Fig. 1. Cut yarns equidistant fromthe center of the specimen length having three widthwise yarn

Ensure each lengthwise yarn has only one cut.The short direction is the direction of test. Take test specimensfrom each swatch in the laboratory sample in such a wa
29、y thatno specimen is closer than one tenth the width of the swatchfrom the selvage with no two specimens cut parallel to thewarp containing the same set of warp ends or if cut parallel tothe filling, containing the same set of filling picks, and thespecimens from different swatches are each taken fr

Ensure that the tension in the specimen is uniform acrossthe clamped width.8.3 When using air-actuated clamps set the air pressure to275 6 15 kPa (40 6 2 psi).

If a specimen slips in the jaws, breaks at the

42、.2-10.4.10.2 Interlaboratory Test Data5An interlaboratory testwas run in 1986 in which randomly drawn specimens ofvinyl-coated glass yarn insect screening were tested in each offour laboratories. Each laboratory used two operators, each ofwhom tested five specimens of each material in each the warpa
43、nd filling direction at different times. The components ofvariance expressed as coefficients of variation are listed inTable 2.NOTE 5The square roots of the components of variance are beingreported to express the variability as a percent of the average fabricstability rather than as the square of th
44、at unit of measure.10.3 PrecisionFor the components of variance reported inTable 2, two averages of observed values should be consideredsignificantly different at the 95 % probability level if thedifference equals or exceeds the critical differences listed inTable 3.NOTE 6Since the interlaboratory t
