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.INTRODUCTIONMethods D 629-59 T, Quantitative Analysis of Textiles, were discontin
3、ued in 1969 because theresponsible subcommittee failed to recommend their adoption as a standard after several years ofpublication as a tentative. The subcommittee action was based on the members knowledge that thestandard did not include several fiber types introduced to the textile trade after the
4、 method waspublished, and that the techniques required for their identification were lacking in the text, allowingit to become out of date. The procedures included in the text, however, are believed to be reliable forthe fiber types named and the techniques described are currently being used in the
5、trade and arereferenced by other standards sponsored by Committee D-13 on Textiles. Reinstatement as a standardusing the previously assigned number was requested since the listed procedures were reliable and thetext considered to be the best available, though not all inclusive. Extensive editorial c
6、hanges weremade in various sections in 1972, and the methods were reinstated as D 629-72. Editorial changeshave again been made throughout the text, and statements on precision and bias and suitability foracceptance testing have been added.The text of Methods D 629-59 T was published by the American
7、 Association of Textile Chemistsand Colorists in that societys Technical Manual as “Test Method 20A-1959” issued in the years 1959through 1974. The AATCC Method was revised completely in 1975 and since published as “TestMethod 20A-1975.”1. Scope1.1 These test methods cover procedures for the determi

Procedures for quantitative estimation of theamount of moisture and certain nonfibrous materials in textilesare also described, for use in the analysis of mixtures, but theseare not the primary methods for the determinati

Summary of Test Methods4.1
32、Summaries of the specific methods used for differenttests are given in the appropriate sections.4.2 The methods for fiber analysis are grouped under threeheadings, as follows: Mechanical Separation or Dissection,Chemical Test Methods, and Microscopical Analysis.NOTE 2It is assumed that the analyst k
33、nows from qualitative tests (asdirected in Test Methods D 276) what fibers are present and, therefore,which method of analysis is applicable. The choice of method will dependupon the nature of the material to be analyzed and, in some cases, on theaccuracy required.5. Significance and Use5.1 Test Met
34、hods D 629 for the determination of quantita-tive analysis of textiles may be used for acceptance testing ofcommercial shipments but caution is advised since informationon between-laboratory precision is lacking. Comparative testsas directed in 5.1.1 or by Table D 1909 may be advisable.5.1.1 In case
35、 of a dispute arising from differences inreported test results using Test Methods D 629 for acceptancetesting of commercial shipments, the purchaser and the sup-plier should conduct comparative tests to determine if there isa statistical bias between their laboratories. Competent statis-tical assist
36、ance is recommended for the investigation of bias.As a minimum, the two parties should take a group of testspecimens which are as homogeneous as possible and whichare from a lot of material of the type in question. The testspecimen should then be randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory
37、for testing. The average results from the twolaboratories should be compared using Students t-test and anacceptable probability level chosen by the two parties beforethe testing began. If a bias is found, either its cause must befound and corrected or the purchaser and supplier must agreeto interpre
38、t future test results in the light of the known bias.5.2 The effects of the various reagents used in the chemicalmethods on the residual fibers in a blend depend upon thehistory of the fibers and, unless otherwise stated, are generallytoo small or too uncertain to warrant the application ofcorrectio
39、n factors.5.3 Fiber composition is generally expressed either on theoven-dry mass of the original sample or the oven-dry mass ofthe clean fiber after the removal of nonfibrous materials. Ifnonfibrous materials are not first removed from the textilebefore the fiber analysis is carried out, or if the
40、treatmentsdescribed in Section 8 are incapable of removing them, anysuch materials present will increase the percentage of the fiberconstituent with which they are removed during the analysis,assuming they are soluble in the solvent used.5.4 The analytical methods are intended primarily for thesepar
41、ation of binary mixtures of fibers. These procedures mayalso be used for the analysis of mixtures containing more thantwo types of fibers by selecting the best combination ofmethods to use (Table 1). Since a sequence of solvents on agiven fiber may produce different results than the expectedresults
42、from a single solvent, it is advisable to determine theresults of such sequential effects when testing multiple fiberblends. It is sometimes more convenient to separate mechani-cally the yarns in a textile which are of similar types, and thenuse the appropriate chemical method to analyze each of the
43、components. Table 2 shows the solubilities of the various fibersin different chemical reagents.6. Purity of Reagents6.1 Use reagent-grade chemicals in all tests. Unless other-wise indicated, it is intended that all reagents shall conform tothe specifications of the Committee on Analytical Reagents o
44、fthe American Chemical Society, where such specifications areavailable.5Other grades may be used, provided it is firstascertained that the reagent is of sufficiently high purity topermit its use without lessening the accuracy of the determi-nation.6.2 Unless otherwise indicated, references to water
45、shall beunderstood to mean water conforming to Type I grade ofSpecification D 1193.7.
