Specification Requirements4.1 The properties of fabrics for womens coverall, dunga-ree, overall, and shop co
18、ats shall conform to the specificationrequirements in Table 1.5. Significance and Use5.1 Upon agreement between the purchaser and the supplier,fabrics intended for this end use should meet all of therequirements listed in Table 1 of this performance specifica-tion.5.2 It is recognized that for purpo
19、ses of fashion or aestheticsthe ultimate consumer of articles made from these fabrics mayfind acceptable fabrics that do not conform to all of therequirements in Table 1. Therefore, one or more of therequirements listed in Table 1 may be modified upon agree-ment between the purchaser and the supplie
20、r.5.2.1 In such cases, any references to the specification shallspecify that: “This fabric meets ASTM Specification D 4118except for the following characteristic(s).”5.3 Where no prepurchase agreement has been reachedbetween the purchaser and the supplier, and in case ofcontroversy, the requirements
21、 listed in Table 1 are intended tobe used as a guide only. As noted in 5.2, ultimate consumerdemands dictate varying performance parameters for anyparticular style of fabric.TABLE 1 Specification RequirementsNOTE 1Class for colorfastness and DP rating is based on a numerical scale of 5 for negligibl

Sampling6.1 Lot SampleAs a lot sample for acceptance testing,take at random the number of rolls as directed in an applicablespecification or other agreement between the purchaser and thesupplier, such as an agreement to use
28、MIL-STD-105D.6.2 Laboratory SampleFrom each roll or piece in the lotsample, cut two laboratory samples the full width of the fabricand at least 375 mm (15 in.) along the selvage.7. Test Method (See Note 1)7.1 Breaking ForceDetermine the dry breaking force, inthe standard atmosphere for testing texti
29、les, as directed in TestMethod D 5034, using a constant rate of traverse (CRT)tensile-testing machine with the speed of the pulling clamp at300 6 10 mm (12 6 0.5 in.)/min.NOTE 2If preferred, the use of a constant-rate-of-extension (CRE)tensile-testing machine is permitted. The crosshead speed should
30、 be asagreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier. There may be nooverall correlation between the results obtained with the CRT and the CREmachines. Consequently, these two machines may not be used inter-changeably. In case of controversy, the CRT machine shall prevail.7.2 Tearing StrengthDet
31、ermine the tearing strength asdirected in Test Method D 2262.NOTE 3If preferred, the use of Test Methods D 1424 and D 2261 ispermitted with existing requirements as given in this performancespecification. There may be no overall correlation between the resultsobtained with the tongue-tear methods an
32、d the Elmendorf method.Consequently, these three methods cannot be used interchangeably. Incase of controversy, Test Method D 2262 shall prevail.7.3 Dimensional Change:7.3.1 Pressing and Finishing During GarmentManufacturing7Mark specimen(s) as directed in 4.3.1 ofAATCC Test Method 135. Press and fi
33、nish specimen(s) asagreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier withrespect to time cycles, temperature, steam, vacuum, andmechanical pressure of the press head. Measure the speci-men(s) and calculate the dimensional change as directed inSections 6 and 7 of AATCC Test Method 135.7.3.2 Launderi
34、ngDetermine the maximum-dimensionalchange after 5 launderings as directed in the applicableprocedure in AATCC Test Method 135 or as agreed uponbetween the purchaser and the supplier.7.3.2.1 Non-durable press fabrics shall be ironed beforemeasuring as directed in Section 5.12 of AATCC TestMethod 96.7
35、.3.2.2 The wash conditions and drying procedure shall beas specified by the supplier.NOTE 4Launderable fabrics are expected to be dry-cleanable exceptwhere all or part of the fabric is not dry-cleanable and is so labeled. Forexample, the fabric could contain a functional finish that is soluble in th
36、esolvent, or the fiber could be degraded by the solvent, which would be thecase with poly(vinyl chloride) fiber. “Dry-cleanable” goods are to bedrycleaned only.NOTE 5Specimens prepared for 7.3.1 may be used for 7.3.2 or 7.3.3as desired. When this is done, the dimensional change due to launderingor d
37、rycleaning is calculated using Eq 1. The dimensional change topressing and finishing is determined on the fabric as it will reach the user.It is not additive to the dimensional change to laundering or drycleaningof the fabric as it will reach the consumer (see 6.1).Percent Dimensional Change 5 100D1

The test conditions shall be as specified by thesupplier (Note 5).7.4.3 CrockingDetermine colorfastness to dry and wetcrocking as directed in AATCC Test Method 8 for solid shadesand AATCC Test Method 116 for prints, or as agreed uponbetween the purchaser and
41、 the supplier.7.4.4 PerspirationDetermine colorfastness to perspirationas directed in AATCC Test Method 15.7.4.5 LightDetermine colorfastness to light as directed inAATCC Test Method 16.NOTE 7There are distinct differences in spectral distribution betweenthe various types of machines listed in AATCC
42、 Test Method 16, with nooverall correlations between them. Consequently, these machines cannotbe used interchangeably. In case of controversy, results obtained with theWater Cooled Xenon Arc machine listed in Option E shall prevail.7.4.6 DrycleaningDetermine colorfastness to drycleaningas directed i
