1、Designation: D6075 00 (Reapproved 2010)Standard Test Method forCracking Resistance of Leather1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6075; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A n

2、umber 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 the determination of the resis-

3、tance of leather to cracking when the leather is bent or foldedwith the grain (or finish) surface on the outside of the bend.Heavy leathers (for example, harness, belt, strap, bag, case, andso forth) are usually bent around a mandrel using eithermechanical resistance (for example, clamp, vise, and s

4、o forth)or by hand. Lighter leathers (for example, shoe upper, uphol-stery, garment, glove, and so forth) are usually given a sharpdouble-fold (crosswise) bend after cooling to a low tempera-ture. This test method does not apply to wet blue.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the

5、standard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 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 app

7、minology D1517.3.2 Definitions:3.2.1 finish crackingthe appearance of cracks (that is,ruptures) in the finish of leather which may extend through thefinish layer to the surface of the crust leather or deeper.3.2.2 grain crackingthe appearance of cracks (that is,ruptures of the grain enamel) on the g

8、rain surface of the leatherwhich may even extend deeper into the leather cross section.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A specimen of leather is conditioned and then bent byone of three procedures. The grain (or finish) surface of thebent specimen is then examined for the appearance of anycracks or rupt

9、ures in the area around the bend.4.1.1 One bending procedure for heavier leathers involves amandrel rod, a metal bar with thickness equal to the diameterof the mandrel, and a large clamp or vise to force and hold theleather in the bent configuration around the mandrel with themetal bar placed betwee

10、n the flesh surfaces of the bent leather.4.1.2 A second bending procedure for heavier leathersinvolves bending the leather around a mandrel by hand andforcing and holding the leather so the flesh surfaces of the bentleather are in contact.4.1.3 A third bending procedure for lighter leathers involves

11、cooling the leather specimen and then creating a sharp double(crosswise) fold while the specimen remains in the coldchamber.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is designed to determine the crackingresistance of the grain or finish surface of leather on a pass/failbasis. This test method atte

12、mpts to replicate the conditions thatmay be encountered by leather that is bent around a buckleframe or other anchoring device, folded over in seams or welts,and so forth. The cracking resistance of leather is influenced bymany factors such as quantity, location, and type of fatliquor-ing materials;

13、 moisture content; thickness; the presence ofdefects or scar tissue, or both; the presence of processingdamages to the skin or hide tissue; finish system formulation,and so forth. This test method is useful for manufacturingcontrol in the tannery, specification acceptance, and qualitycontrol in the

14、end product manufacturing plant.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D31 on Leatherand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D31.01 on Vegetable Leather. Thistest method is a combination of three methods (that is, Methods 4011, 4021,and 7211) that were part of Federal

Apparatus6.1 Vise or Clamp, shall have plain (that is, smooth and notknurled or roughened) jaws not less than 7 cm

18、 (234 in.) wide.6.2 Mandrel, shall be a rod approximately 15 cm (6 in.) inlength and shall have a diameter as specified in the materialspecification.6.3 Metal Bar, shall be approximately 15 cm (6 in.) inlength, 1.9 cm (34 in.) in width, and shall have a thicknessequal to the diameter of the mandrel

19、as specified in the materialspecification.6.4 Low-temperature Chamber, shall be capable of main-taining the required temperature (usually 0C) to within 6 1Cand equipped so as to permit insertion of hands to hold andmanipulate the leather specimen within the chamber.7. Test Specimens7.1 The test spec

20、imen for bending around a mandrel shall be150 mm (6 in.) long by 25 mm (1 in.) wide. The direction ofthe long dimension relative to the backbone shall be noted.7.2 The test specimen for low-temperature double-foldingshall be 50 6 2mm(26 0.08 in.) square.7.3 All test specimens shall be free from mech

21、anical dam-age and defects.8. Conditioning8.1 Condition all specimens in accordance with PracticeD1610. Conditioning other than that prescribed shall be notedin the results.9.

22、 TestMethod D2813.9.2 Vise- or Clamp-aided BendingBend the specimen intoa loop with the grain or finish side of the leather out. Place themandrel of the specified diameter in the loop of the specimen.Place the metal bar having a thickness equal to the diameter ofthe mandrel on top of the mandrel. Pl

23、ace the whole assemblyin the vise with the loop downward as illustrated in Fig. 1.Bend the specimen around the mandrel and against the bar byslowly closing the vise jaws until the mandrel and bar cannotbe moved by hand.
