1、Designation: D 2255/D2255M 09Standard Test Method forGrading Spun Yarns for Appearance1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 2255/D2255M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A

2、number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONCotton yarn appearance standards were first adopted in 1938 and revised in 1964, with Series IIIbeing revised again in 1975. The 1964 b

3、oards had different yarn sizes for the four-grade exhibits oneach board. The 1975 Series III board used the same yarn number for each grade.The appearance grade of yarn is based on the composite evaluation of several factors, such asunevenness, fuzziness, and neppiness. The differences in the yarn n

4、umbers in the 1964 standards alongwith the differences in other factors distort the comparison between grades and makes grading moredifficult.To overcome this shortcoming, in 1975 the Series III board was revised using the same size yarnfor all four grades. After evaluating the improvements, it was

5、decided to revise all of the series usinga mid-range yarn number for each grade in the series, and narrow the range in the most active series.This was accomplished by adding a new board, Series VI.Anear mid-range yarn number was selectedto represent equal steps between adjacent grades for all the fa

6、ctors considered in yarn appearancegrading. These yarns were produced with current commercial manufacturing equipment and practices.Finally, to obtain better yarn definition and better reproducibility from set to set, it was decided touse offset photo printing.Shortly after these new boards were pub

7、lished in 1979, it became apparent that in the Series II-79Board the A and B grades were not clearly defined and appeared to be switched. This was correctedin the 1987 Series II Board.In 1987 a world wide survey was conducted on how the Yarn Appearance Boards were being used.From responses it became

8、 apparent that the boards are being used for grading yarns other than 100 %cotton combed or carded yarns. Respondents were using the boards to grade yarn blends, ring spunyarns, open-end spun yarns and other spinning systems. The boards are used both for process qualitycontrol and customer acceptanc

9、e.In view of the above findings, it was decided to revise the method to include grading of all singlespun yarns.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the grading of singles spunyarns for appearance.1.2 This test method does not apply to plied yarns.1.3 The values stated in either inch-pound or SI unit

10、s are tobe regarded separately as the standard. The values stated ineach system are not exact equivalents, therefore, each systemmust be used independently of the other.1.4 This standard does not purport to address the safetyconcerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of theuser of th

11、is standard to establish appropriate safety and healthpractices and determine the applicability of regulatory limita-tions prior to use.21This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D13 on Textilesand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D13.58 on Yarns and Fibers.Current ed

Description of Yarn Grades4.1 Grade A YarnGrade A yarn may have no large nepswhich are over three times the normal diameter of the yarn andvery f

16、ew small ones. Grade A yarn must have good uniformityfrom 25 mm to 25 mm (inch to inch), and good cover withoutexcessive fuzziness. No foreign matter may be present inGrade A yarn.4.2 Grade B YarnGrade B Yarn may have no large neps,but may have a few small ones. Grade B yarn may have nomore than thr

17、ee small pieces of foreign matter per board orspecimen providing they do not form slubs. Grade B yarn maybe slightly more irregular and may have slightly more fuzz thana Grade A yarn.4.3 Grade C YarnGrade C yarn may have more neps, andlarger ones as well as more fuzziness and a greater amount offore

18、ign matter than Grade B yarn. The contrast between thethick and thin places and the normal diameter of the yarn maybe greater than in Grade B yarn resulting in an over-all rougherappearance.4.4 Grade D YarnGrade D yarn may have some slubs thatare more than three times the average diameter of the yar

19、n.Grade D yarn may have more neps, neps of a larger size, morethick and thin places, more fuzz and more foreign matter thanGrade C yarn. When slubs or large neps are present, Grade Dyarn may have fewer neps than Grade C yarn. Grade D yarnmay have an over-all rougher appearance than Grade C yarn.4.5

20、Yarn Below Grade DYarn below Grade D may havemore defects and an overall rougher appearance than Grade Dyarn.NOTE 1The permitted number of defects for any grade should alwaysbe determined by comparison with the official “ASTM Spun YarnAppearance Standards” photographs.5. Summary of Test Method5.1 Ya

21、rn specimens, wound on black boards, are comparedwith photographs of specimens representing the appearancegrades. The grade is based on fuzziness, neppiness, uneven-ness, and visible foreign matter.6. Significance and Use6.1 This method is considered satisfactory for acceptancegrading of commercial

22、shipments because it has been usedextensively in the trade for this purpose.6.1.1 If there are differences of practical significance be-tween reported test results for two laboratories (or more),comparative tests should be performed to determine if there isa statistical bias between them, using comp

23、etent statisticalassistance. As a minimum, use the samples for such a com-parative tests that are as homogeneous as possible, drawn fromthe same lot of material as the samples that resulted in disparateresults during initial testing and randomly assigned in equalnumbers to each laboratory. The test

24、results from the labora-tories involved should be compared using a statistical test forunpaired data, a probability level chosen prior to the testingseries. If a bias is found, either its cause must be found andcorrected, or future test results for that material must beadjusted in consideration of t

25、he known bias.6.2 The appearance of a woven or knitted fabric depends toa large extent on the smoothness, cleanliness, and generalappearance of the yarns from which the fabric is manufactured.Instruments are available for the measurement of unevennessand for counting neps and other imperfections in

26、yarn, but thevalues obtained from such tests are not easily integrated into anover-all expression for actual fabric appearance. Yarn appear-ance grading affords additional information which the manu-facturer of woven or knitted goods may, through experience,correlate with the appearance to be expect

In one of the short edges there shouldbe knife cuts or small notches to hold the ends of the yarn. Oneof these

36、should be placed approximately 10 mm (0.40 in.) fromthe straight side of the board and the other about 20 mm (0.80in.) from the notched side.7.4 Yarn Board WinderA small machine to rotate a yarnboard end-over-end, and fitted with a traversing guide toadvance the yarn across the board as it is wound.

37、 The machineshall be capable of spacing the yarn evenly as required in Table1 with a tolerance of 610 %.7.4.1 All parts of the tension device on the winder whichcomes in contact with the yarn shall be made of a smoothmaterial, such as porcelain or metal, to prevent disturbance ofthe fibers in the ya

38、rn.8. Adjustment of Yarn Board Winder8.1 Set the traversing mechanism of the winder for therequired spacing, wind a trial board, and count the wraps in awidth of at least 25 mm (1 in.). If the number of wraps does notconform to the tolerances specified in Table 1, adjust to thecorrect spacing (Note

39、2). On the most generally used type ofmachine, this adjustment may be made by changing thediameter of the friction wheel or by filing a new notch in theshaft on which the friction wheel slides.NOTE 2The spacing is critical in its influence on the appearance of thespecimen. Closer spacing places a gr

40、eater length of yarn on the board andhence, a larger number of imperfections per unit of area. Wider spacinghas the opposite effect.9. Sampling, Selection, and Number of Specimens9.1 Take the lot sample as specified in the applicablematerial specification or as directed in Practice D 2258.9.2 For th

41、e laboratory sample, take five packages (cones,spools, bobbins, etc.) at random from each case of the lotsample.9.3 Prepare one specimen from each package in the labora-tory sample.10. Conditioning10.1 Specimens need be neither preconditioned nor condi-tioned.11. Preparation of Specimens11.1 Mount a

42、 yarn board in the revolving clamp of thewinder and set the traversing mechanism to give the spacingspecified in Table 1 for the nominal yarn number.11.2 If comparing two or more lots which differ slightly inyarn number and fall in different series (example: 35s and 37s),wind them to the same spacin

43、g and compare with the sameseries of standards. In any case, compare only yarns thenumbers of which are not more than 10 % above the upperlimit nor more than 10 % below the lower limit of the series ofstandards by which they are graded.11.3 Mount the package to unwind freely, lead the yarnthrough th

44、e tension device and traversing pigtail guide, andsecure the end in a notch or knife-cut near the left hand side ofthe board. When unwinding yarn over the end of the package,wind the board at 50 to 100 rpm using just sufficient tension tospace the yarn evenly on the board. If the package must beunwo

45、und from the side, wind at a low enough speed to avoidjerking, breaking, or tangling the yarn.11.4 Wind until the last wrap is within approximately 20mm (0.8 in.) of the right-hand side and secure the end of theyarn near the right-hand corner.12. Procedure12.1 Place the appropriate series of Spun Ya

46、rn AppearanceStandards in the grading position on the shelf or support in theyarn grading cabinet. Set one specimen at a time in front of thepanel of standards and move it from side to side for comparisonwith the different standards from about1m(1yd).12.2 Thick places, bunches, or slubs are consider

47、ed theworst defects in yarn because in practically all cases they willcause end breakage in later processing. Yarn with bunches orslubs will not be assigned Grade A or Grade B.12.3 When any one defect or combination of them isexcessive for a grade, assign the next lower grade to thespecimen.12.4 Ass

48、ign to the specimen the grade designated for thephotograph which it is equal to or better than without beingequal to the next higher grade. Consider the information inSection 4 in making the assignment.Also, grade the back of thespecimen in a similar manner. Record the grade of the poorerside as the

49、 grade of the specimen if the two sides are as muchas one grade different.12.5 Each specimen shall be graded independently by threeexperienced yarn graders, and the grade reported shall be thatassigned by all three graders when they are in agreement, or bytwo in agreement, provided the third grader does not differ bymore than one grade from the grade assigned by the other two.When the range of the grades assigned by the three graders toa specific specimen is greater than one, the three graders shallreview the specimen in conference and agree on the grade to beassigned,
