11、mittee. It is based on the first edition of BS3838, published in1964, and on the Hard Wearing Blazer Cloth Scheme developed by the Retail Trading-Standards Association Incorporated. This revision is applicable both to wool and wool blends and to man-made fibres and blends. The first edition of BS383
12、8 covered blazer fabrics for school use; in the present edition it has been decided not to specify the end use of the fabrics but to allow the standard to be applied to other blazer fabrics if required. Additional performance criteria have been introduced. The extension of the standard to permit the
13、 use of man-made fibres in blazer fabrics has necessitated the inclusion of test procedures for dimensional stability and for colour fastness to washing. Procedures for colour fastness to dry cleaning and perspiration and for resistance to pilling have also been included. Two sets of requirements ha
14、ve been specified, one for extra hard wearing blazer fabrics and one for standard hard wearing blazer fabrics. For black and navy fabrics it is sometimes possible to obtain higher levels of performance for certain properties, such as tensile strength, colour fastness and abrasion resistance, than it
15、 is for fabrics of other colours. It should be indicated on the blazer whether the garment has been manufactured from fabric which complies with the requirements for the extra hard wearing blazer fabric or for the standard hard wearing blazer fabric. A British Standard does not purport to include al
16、l the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. In particular, attention is drawn to Statutory Instrument1986 No.26, the Textile Products
17、(Indications of Fibre Content) Regulations1986. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 to6, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be i
18、ndicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.BS3838:1980 BSI 12-1999 1 1 Scope This BritishStandard specifies requirements for blazer fabrics made from wool or wool blends or man-made fibres or blends. It is applicable to woven and knitted fabrics. 2 References The titles of the publica
19、tions referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 3 Definition For the purposes of this standard the following definition applies. snag a yarn or a number of filaments that have been pulled out from a fabric to form unsightly distorted loops on the surface of the fabric 4 Techn
20、ical requirements When tested in accordance with the methods specified in the second column of Table 1 the fabrics shall comply with the requirements specified in the third column. 5 Sampling A representative sample of fabric is required for testing purposes, having an area of150cm 175cm. No specime
21、n shall be cut less than10cm from a selvedge or from the end of a piece. 6 Marking Fabric shall be marked with the following information: a) the number and date of this BritishStandard, i.e.BS3838:1980 1) ; b) the name, trademark or other means of identification of the supplier and/or manufacturer;
22、c) cleansing instructions in accordance with the recommendations and terminology of BS2747; Garments made from fabrics complying with the requirements of this standard shall be marked additionally with either d) or e) as follows: d) “Made from fabric which complies with the requirements of BS3838:19
23、80 Extra hard wearing blazer fabric”; e) “Made from fabric which complies with the requirements of BS3838:1980 Standard hard wearing blazer fabric”. 1) Marking BS3838:1980 on or in relation to a product represents a manufacturers declaration of conformity, i.e.a claim by or on behalf of the manufact
24、urer that the product meets the requirements of the standard. The accuracy of the claim is therefore solely the responsibility of the person making the claim. Such a declaration is not to be confused with third party certification of conformity, which may also be desirable.BS3838:1980 2 BSI 12-1999

BS3838:1980 BSI 12-1999 3 Appendix A Assessment of snagging tendency of weft knitted fabrics by a mace snag tester A.1 Principle The fabric specimen is formed into a sleeve and slipped over a cylinder which is rotated at a constant speed. A spiked ball (referred to as the mace for
33、 the purposes of this standard) is suspended by a chain in such a way that some of its points rest on the fabric. The rotation causes the mace to be continuously bounced from the fabric in a random manner due to the points catching in the threads of the rotating specimen. The degree of snagging prod
34、uced is rated, under standard viewing conditions, against photographic standards. A.2.1 Four-position mace snag tester consisting of four rotating cylinders above which are suspended four spheres equipped with equi-spaced points (the mace). These are adjusted so that the points of the mace rest agai
35、nst the cylinder. A suitable machine is described inA.9. A.2.2 Gauge for setting the position of the mace. A.2.3 Template, 330mm 203mm with two slots parallel to the short side to mark the sewing line (seeFigure 1). The slot29mm from the short side is to be used for extensible fabrics and the slot16
36、mm from the short side is to be used for inextensible fabrics. A.2.4 Rubber rings for securing the test specimens onto the cylinder. A.2.5 Lockstitch sewing machine and sewing thread. A.2.6 Viewing cabinet equipped with two illuminated viewing windows. A.2.7 Specimen mounting boards appropriate to t
37、he size of the test specimen. A.2.8 Photographic snagging standards comprising nine photographs ranging from Standard5 (nosnagging) to Standard1 (severe snagging) in half-standard steps and carried on a slide. A.3 Atmosphere for conditioning and testing The atmosphere required for conditioning and t
38、esting is the standard atmosphere for testing textiles as defined in BS1051, i.e.a relative humidity of652%and a temperature of20 2 C. Figure 1 Template Figure 2 Single specimen folded for sewingBS3838:1980 4 BSI 12-1999 A.4 Sample size and preparation A.4.1 Size. Select a sample of sufficient size
39、to provide four test specimens as described inA.5. A fabric area of at least610mm 610mm is required for sampling. A.4.2 Conditioning. Prior to testing, condition all fabric samples for at least24h in the standard atmosphere for testing specified inA.3. A.5 Preparation of test specimens Using the tem
40、plate in contact with the back of the fabric cut four test specimens from the sample, two lengthways and two widthways with the appropriate sewing line marked. Mark the lengthways specimen with an arrow indicating the direction of the knitting. NOTEFor highly extensible fabrics it may be found neces
41、sary to use an alternative sewing line, as agreed between the parties concerned. The specimens shall be as representative of the sample as possible and no specimens shall contain selvedge edges. With the face of the test specimen inside, fold as shown in Figure 2 and stitch accurately along the sewi
42、ng marks. On completion turn the specimen face side out. Repeat this for the remaining test specimens. A.6 Test procedure A.6.1 Mounting. Slide one of the prepared specimens carefully over one of the cylinders of the tester keeping the seam flat, i.e.one seam edge on each side of the line of sewing.
43、 Secure the inner end of the specimen by passing one of the circular rubber rings round it and the cylinder. Smooth out any creases or fullness in the specimen and secure the outer end with another rubber ring. Repeat the procedure for the remaining three specimens. Mount the lengthways specimens on
44、 the cylinders so that the heads of the loops (direction of arrow) face to the right of the machine. NOTELengthways and widthways specimens should be placed on cylinders chosen at random, i.e.lengthways specimens should not always be put on the same two cylinders. A.6.2 Testing. With the machine at
45、rest, take each appropriate mace from its holder and place it on its specimen with the chain passing round the covered guide rod. Set the counter to the desired number of revolutions. NOTEThe recommended test is600revolutions in10min. Start the machine and check the behaviour of the maces. They shou
46、ld move freely in a random manner over the fabric surfaces and any tendency for movement to be restricted should be rectified. When the machine stops, carefully lift each mace from its specimen and return it to its individual holder. Remove the specimens from the cylinders and pair them as lengthway
47、s and widthways specimens. Figure 3 Outline sketch of mace snag testerBS3838:1980 BSI 12-1999 5 A.7 Assessment of the test specimens Take a specimen and pull it over the appropriate flat mounting board, keeping the seam at the centre back. Insert the mounted specimen into the left side of the viewin
48、g cabinet so that it is visible through the left hand viewing opening. Adjust the set of photographic standards so that one photograph at a time is visible on the right hand viewing opening. Rate the specimen for the density of snags by comparison with the standards. If the density of snags lies bet
49、ween two photographs it is given the more severe rating. Repeat this procedure for the three remaining specimens. A.8 Test report The report shall state: a) that the test was conducted in accordance with the method given in Appendix A of BS3838:1980; b) any deviations from the test method; c) the number of revolutions used; d) the sewing line used (extensible or inextensible fabric); e) the individual ratings for the two lengthways and two widthways specimens and the mean of the four results obtained.
