Summary of Practice4.1 The lot is core sampled in accordance with one of aseries of equivalent schedules based on estimates of variabilityof the percentage clean wool fiber present and on the required
11、level of precision. A set of packages of wool is taken as a lotsample. From each package in the lot sample, a fixed numberof cores of wool is drawn to be used as a laboratory sample.Guidance in the selection of the most economical of theequivalent schedules is provided.5. Significance and Use5.1 Cor
12、e sampling is widely accepted, when applicable, forobtaining a laboratory sample representative of the clean woolfiber present in a lot of packaged raw wool.5.2 If the wool is so loosely packed that a core cannot becut, or if it is so highly compressed that the sampling toolcannot readily penetrate
13、into the package to the required depthand in the required direction, core sampling is not applicable.The density of wool in most types of commercial packages issuitable for sampling by this method.5.3 The procedure described in this practice is adapted tothe application of statistical methods for es
14、timating the size ofsample required to achieve a required level of sample precisionat minimum cost.1This practice is under the juristiction of ASTM Committee D13 on Textiles andis the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D13.13 on Wool and Wool Felt.Current edition approved Jan. 1, 2005.

17、he determination of other properties that are not affectedby boring, such as average fiber diameter, and for sampling lots of otherbulk fibers in packages.6. Apparatus6.1 Sampling Tool3A tube equipped with a cutting edge,together with a drill, hammer, press, or similar device, andaccessories. The tu
18、be must be capable of penetrating therequired distance (see 7.2) into a package of wool and cuttinga core therefrom, which core must be retained substantiallyunchanged within the tube during its withdrawal from apackage.6.1.1 Fig. 1 illustrates the design of a recommended type ofrotatable small-diam
19、eter wool sampling tube.6.1.2 Sampling tubes in common use range from approxi-mately12 to 2 in. (13 to 50 mm) in diameter, and from 10 to40 in. (250 to 1000 mm) in length.6.1.3 Some types of sampling tubes are equipped withreceptacles at the rear of the tube.6.1.4 Drills of12 hp (375 w) rotating at
20、200 to 550 rpm (3.3to 10 rps), have been found to be satisfactory.6.1.5 A toothed cutting edge on a rotating tube of smalldiameter, instead of the smooth edge illustrated in Fig. 1,isacceptable provided that for any specific design it has beenshown that a bias is not introduced thereby. The absence
21、of biasin samples obtained with a rotating 2-in. (50 mm) diametertube with a toothed cutting edge has been demonstrated.6.2 Sample ContainerA container with closure of suchmaterial and so constructed that a sample stored therein willnot show a material change in its moisture content during theinterv
22、al between sampling and weighing the sample for test.7. Sampling Procedure7.1 Time of SamplingTake the sample at or about the timethe lot is weighed.7.2 Depth of PenetrationPenetrate a bale of wool with thesampling tube to a depth such that substantially all parts of thepackage can be reached. Maint
23、ain the same depth of penetra-tion for each core taken from a given lot.7.3 Location of Borings:7.3.1 Consider a package as composed of eight sectionsapproximately equal in volume, defined by top or bottom, frontor back, left or right.7.3.2 Alternate the location of boring in such a fashion thatthe
24、total composite sample will consist of approximately thesame number of cores from each section of the packages.7.3.3 If the packages have been compressed in a balingpress, enter a package through a compression surface and in adirection normal to that surface.7.4 Whenever there is danger that loose s
25、and or othermaterial may drop out of the tube during or after boring, soposition the package that the direction of boring will behorizontal.3The sole source of supply of the apparatus known to the committee at this timeis Yocom-McColl Testing Laboratories, Inc., 540 Elk Place, Denver, CO 80216. Ifyo

Your comments will receive careful consideration at a meeting of theresponsible technical committee,1which you may attend.(Metric equivalents may be calculated by multiplying inches by 25.4 to obtain equivalen

28、the package.7.6 Immediately upon withdrawal of the tube after boring,extrude the core directly into the sample container or theintermediate receptacle (6.1.3) without loss of material orunnecessary exposure to atmospheric conditions that mayresult in a change in the moisture content of the core.8.

30、 is given usingEq 1 (Notes 2 and 3):sx25sb2n3N 2 nN1sw2n 3 k1st2m5ss21st2m(1)where:sx2= variance of the mean of the m observations,sb2= variance for percent clean wool fiber present be-tween packages within the lot,sw2= average variance for percent clean wool fiberpresent of cores within packages of
31、 the lot,st2= variance of observations on a homogeneous sample,ss2= variance for percent clean wool fiber present for thesample, as defined by Eq 1,n = number of packages selected at random from the lotfrom which cores are taken,N = number of packages in the lot,k = number of cores taken from each o
32、f the n packages,andm = number of observations made on the compositesample.NOTE 2Uniform mass of packages and of cores are assumed. If thedeparture from uniformity is such that a material error would beintroduced by this assumption, proportional compositing must be adheredto.NOTE 3The factor (N-n)/N
33、 is the correction for sampling from a finitepopulation. A corresponding correction is generally not necessary forcores and tests.8.2 Number of CoresUnless otherwise agreed upon, aswhen specified in an applicable material specification, take anumber of cores such that ss2will be 0.2603.NOTE 40.2603
34、is the value calculated from (1.0/1.960)2where:1.0 = allowable variation of the percent clean wool fiber present ofthe composite sample, and1.960 = value of Students t for infinite degrees of freedom, two-sided limits, and a 95 % probability level.8.2.1 Reliable Estimates of Variances AvailableWhenr
35、eliable estimates of sb2and sw2are available, determine therequired number of packages based on a specific number ofcores per package using Eq 2 or Table 1:n 5 N sw21 ksb2!/0.2603 kN 1 ksb2# (2)where:n = number of packages to be selected from the lot forcoring (rounded upward to a whole number),N =k

38、:B = average cost of selecting and positioning a package for coring,andC = average cost of taking and handling a core, and the other termsare defined in the legend for Eq 2.NOTE 6Estimates of the variances are best based on data obtained ininvestigations using analysis of variance techniques for lot
39、s of similarpackaged raw wool. The estimates listed in Table A1.1 were so obtained.Estimates may also be based on records in the users laboratory if the planfor sampling and testing described in STP 1145has been followed. Fortesting that does not involve a dispute between the purchaser and thesuppli
40、er, variances may be estimated as specified in Practice E 122.8.2.2 No Reliable Estimates of Variances AvailableWhenno reliable estimates of sb2and sw2are available, determinethe required number of packages based on a specific number ofcores per package using Eq 2 or Table 1 and sw= sb= 5.0percentag
41、e points. These estimates of variability are somewhatlarger than the variability usually found in practice and willusually require a larger number of cores than when reliableestimates of variability are available.9.
