The pullcable must not stretch under tensi

For example,mechanical stops on either side of the direction changingpulley can be set to give the 45.7-cm (18-in.) pull length.7.

Test blocks must be cut to 5.08 by 5.08 by2.54 cm, 0.13 cm (2.00 by 2.00 by 1.00 in., 0.05 in.).8. Test Specimen8.1 Test specimen

Procedure11.1 Preweigh conditioned sets of four test blocks cut to5.08 by 5.08 by 2.54 cm 6 0.13 cm (2.00 by 2.00 by 1.00 in.6 0.05 in.), within 60.05 g.11.2 Place a set of four blocks in the test frame. The blockscan be secured using double-stick carpet tape. Position the testframe such that i

27、t can be pulled with, against, or across thefabric machine direction. Center the 9.072-kg (20-lb) testweight on the test frame and attach the pull cable hook.11.3 Pull the loaded frame 45.7 cm (18.0 in.) in eachprimary surface direction (with, across, against, across, forexample), in succession with

28、out lifting the test frame so as tooutline a “square” on the surface. The test rate is not critical,but the time to travel each 45.7 cm (18-in.) side must bebetween 8 and 12 s.11.4 Note any deviations in rate, how smoothly the testframe could be pulled, and any deviation from a square pattern.11.5 C

29、arefully remove and store the test blocks for weigh-ing.11.6 Repeat the test procedure as required in 9.1 and 9.2.11.7 Record the general condition of the surface; whethermatted, clean, worn, etc. Temperature, humidity (or wet/dry)should also be noted.12. Calculation12.1 Abrasiveness IndexDetermine

30、the weight loss foreach set of four blocks in grams. Divide the weight lossexpressed in grams by 6.0 and multiply by 100 to determine theabrasiveness index. Average the specimen values and expressthe result as an integer.12.2 ExampleIn four block sets:Starting Weight,gFinal Weight,gAbrasivenessIndex

Discussion14.1 With regard to precision, the reproducibility is esti-mated to be 610 %.14.2 Potential sources of error or deviations are as follows;14.2.1 Variations in density, material, compressive strength,or cell properties of the friable test foam.14.2.2 Variati

34、ons in path of friable test foam.14.2.3 Path deviationSince the weighted foam is notconstrained to move in a straight path as it is pulled in aprincipal direction, it will tend to drift somewhat in thedirection of pile angle. The deviation of the abrasion patternleft on the surface from a square ref

35、lects the directionality ofthe surface.15. Precision and Bias15.1 Precision and bias evaluations have not been con-ducted for this test method.
