2、, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers
3、 the grab and modified grab testprocedures for determining the breaking strength and elonga-tion of most textile fabrics. Provisions are made for wet testing.1.1.1 The grab test procedure is applicable to woven,nonwoven, and felted fabrics, while the modified grab testprocedure is used primarily for
4、 woven fabrics.1.2 This test method is not recommended for glass fabrics,or for knitted fabrics and other textile fabrics which have highstretch (more than 11 %).NOTE 1For the determination of the breaking force and elongation oftextile fabrics using the raveled strip test procedure and the cut stri
5、p testprocedure, refer to Test Method D5035.1.3 This test method provides the values in both inch-poundunits and SI units. Inch-pound units is the technically correctname for the customary units used in the United States. SI unitsis the technically correct name for the system of metric unitsknown as
6、 the International System of Units. The values statedin either acceptable metric units or in other units shall beregarded separately as standard. The values stated in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each systemmust be used independently of the other, without combining inany way.1

Significance and Use5.1 The grab test procedure in this test meth
19、od for thedetermination of breaking force and elongation is consideredsatisfactory for acceptance testing of commercial shipments ofmost woven or nonwoven textile fabrics, and the modified grabtest procedure is considered satisfactory for acceptance testingof commercial shipments of most woven texti
20、le fabrics, sincethe procedures have been used extensively in the trade foracceptance testing.5.1.1 In case of disagreement arising from differences inreported test values when using this test method for acceptancetesting of commercial shipments, the purchaser and the sup-plier should conduct compar
21、ative tests to determine if there isa statistical bias between their laboratories. 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 materia
22、l of the type in question. The testspecimens should then be randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory for testing. The average results from the twolaboratories should be compared using Students t-test forunpaired data and an acceptable probability level chosen by thetwo parties before tes
23、ting is begun. If a bias is found, either itscause must be found and corrected, or the purchaser and thesupplier must agree to interpret future test results in light of theknown bias.5.2 This test method is not recommended for knitted fabricsbecause of their high stretch.5.3 Some modification of tec
24、hnique may be necessary forany fabric having a strength in excess of 200-N/cm (1140-lb/in.) width. Special precautionary measures are provided for usewhen necessary for strong fabrics.5.4 All of the procedures are applicable for testing fabricseither conditioned or wet.5.5 Comparison of results from
25、 tensile testing machinesoperating on different principles is not recommended. Whendifferent types of machines are used for comparison testing,constant-time-to-break at 20 6 3 s is the established way ofproducing data. Even then the data may differ significantly.5.6 Although a constant-rate-of-exten
26、sion is preferred inthese procedures, in cases of dispute, unless there is agreementto the contrary between the purchaser and the supplier, aconstant-time-to-break (20 6 3 s) is to be used.5.7 The grab test procedure is applicable to the determina-tion of the effective strength of the fabric; that i
27、s, the strengthof the yarns in a specific width together with the fabricassistance from the adjacent yarns. The breaking force deter-mined by the grab procedure is not a reflection of the strengthof the yarns actually gripped between clamps and cannot beused for direct comparison with yarn strength
28、determinations.Grab test specimens require much less time to prepare althoughthey require more fabric per specimen. There is no simplerelationship between grab tests and strip tests since the amountof fabric assistance depends on the type of fabric and construc-tion variables.5.8 The modified grab t
29、est procedure is applicable to thedetermination of the breaking force of fabrics with construc-tions in which the application of tensile stress on raveled stripspecimens produces further unraveling. This test method isparticularly applicable to high-strength fabrics.6. Apparatus, Reagents, and Mater

32、n, gripping surface.The faces shall be parallel and have matching centers withrespect to one another in the same clamp and to the corre-sponding jaw face of the other clamp.6.2.1 For grab tests, each clamp shall have a front (or top)jaw face measuring 25 6 1 mm (1.0 6 0.02 in.) perpendicularto the d
33、irection of the application of the force, and not less than25 nor more than 50 mm (1.0 nor more than 2.0 in.) parallel tothe direction of the application of the force (Note 2). The back,or bottom, jaw face of each clamp shall be at least as large asits mate. Use of a larger face for the second jaw r
34、educes theproblem of front and back jaw face misalignment.NOTE 2Front (or top) faces measuring 25 by 50 mm (1.0 by 2.0 in.)will not necessarily give the same value as 25 by 25-mm (1.0 by 1.0-in.)faces. For many materials, the former are preferable because of the largergripping area which tends to re
35、duce slippage. While both sizes of grippingsurface are permitted, the face sizes used must be the same for all samplesin the test and must be recorded in the report.6.2.2 For modified grab tests, the top (or front) jaw facesshall measure 25 by 50 mm (1.0 by 2.0 in.) or more, with thelonger dimension

39、3An adequate specification or other 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 qual

Conditioning8.1 For Conditioned Testing:8.1.1 If the samples have a higher mois
44、ture content than themoisture present when at equilibrium in the standard atmo-sphere for testing textiles, precondition as directed in PracticeD1776.8.1.2 Bring samples to moisture equilibrium in the standardatmosphere for testing textiles as directed in Practice D1776.Equilibrium is considered to
45、have been reached when theincrease in mass of the specimen in successive weighings madeat intervals of not less than 2 h does not exceed 0.1 % of themass of the specimen.NOTE 5It is recognized that in practice, materials are frequently notweighed to determine when moisture equilibrium has been reach
46、ed. Whileconditioning for a fixed time cannot be accepted in cases of dispute, it maybe sufficient in routine testing to expose the material to the standardatmosphere for testing textiles for a reasonable period of time before thespecimens are tested. As a guide the following conditioning periods ar
47、esuggested:FiberMinimum Condi-tioning Period, h5Animal Fibers (for example, wool, and regenerated proteins) 8Vegetable Fibers (for example, cotton) 6Viscose 8Acetate 4Fibers having a regain less than 5 % at 65 % relativehumidity28.2 For Wet Testing:8.2.1 Specimens to be tested in the wet condition s
48、hall beimmersed in water at room temperature until thoroughly wetted(Note 6). To thoroughly wet a specimen, it may be necessary toadd not more than 0.05 % of a nonionic wetting agent to thewater. A test of any wet specimen shall be completed withintwo minutes after its removal from the water.NOTE 6T
49、he material has been thoroughly wet out when it has been4Apparatus and accessories are commercially available.5These periods are approximate and apply only to fabrics, spread out in singlethickness, and exposed to freely moving air in the standard atmosphere for testingtextiles. Heavy or coated fabrics may require conditioning periods longer than thosesuggested. If a fabric contains more than one fiber, it should be conditioned for theperiod required by the fiber component which requires the most time (for example,8 h for a wool and acetate blend).D50
