16、of specimen, and threealternative types of testing machines. For reporting, use thefollowing system to identify specific specimen and machinecombinations.4.2.1 Type of specimen:4.2.1.1 1R25 mm (1.0 in.) raveled strip test4.2.1.2 2R50 mm (2.0 in.) raveled strip test4.2.1.3 1C25 mm (1.0 in.) cut strip

19、 a constant-rate-of-extension tensiletesting machine.5. Significance and Use5.1 The raveled strip test in this test method is consideredsatisfactory for acceptance testing of commercial shipments ofwoven textile fabrics because the method has been usedextensively in the trade for acceptance testing.
20、 The same is truefor the cut strip test for felted or nonwoven textile fabrics.5.1.1 If there are differences of practical significance be-tween reported test results for two laboratories (or more),comparative test should be performed to determine if there is astatistical bias between them, using co
21、mpetent statistical assis-tance. At a minimum, use the samples for such a comparativetest that are as homogeneous as possible, drawn from the samelot of material as the samples that resulted in disparate resultsduring initial testing and randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory. The test
22、 results from the laboratoriesinvolved should be compared using a statistical test forunpaired data, a probability level chosen prior to the testingseries. If bias is found, either its cause must be found andcorrected, or future test results for that material must beadjusted in consideration of the
23、known bias.5.2 The method is not recommended for knitted fabricsbecause of their high stretch.5.3 Some modification of the techniques may be necessaryfor any fabric having a strength in excess of 200 N/cm (1140lbf/in.) width. Special precautionary measures are provided foruse when necessary with str
24、ong fabrics, or fabrics made fromglass fibers (see Specification D 579), to prevent them fromslipping in the clamps or being damaged as a result of beinggripped in the clamps.5.4 All of the procedures are applicable for testing fabricseither conditioned or wet.5.5 Comparison of results from tensile
25、testing machinesoperating on different principles is not recommended. Whendifferent types of machines are used for comparison testing,constant time-to-break at 206 3 s is the established way ofproducing data. Even then the data may differ significantly.5.6 Although a constant-rate-of-extension tensi
26、le testingmachine is preferred in these methods, in cases of dispute,unless there is agreement to the contrary between the purchaserand supplier, a constant-time-to-break (20 6 3 s) is to be used.5.7 The raveled strip procedure is applicable to the deter-mination of the force required to break a spe
27、cific width offabric. The breaking force information on woven fabrics isparticularly useful for comparison of the effective strength ofthe yarns in the fabric with the combined strength of an equalnumber of the same yarns which are not woven. The procedureis not recommended for fabrics having fewer
28、than 20 yarnsacross the width of the specimen. If a 20-yarns-per-specimenwidth cannot be obtained with a 25-mm (1-in.) strip, a 50-mm(2-in.) strip should be used. In general, the observed force fora 50-mm (2-in.) specimen is not double the observed force fora 25-mm (1-in.) specimen and the results s
29、hould be reported asobserved on a 50-mm (2-in.) strip without mathematicaladjustment to 25 mm (1 in.). If a fabric cannot be raveledreadily, use either a cut strip or grab procedure.5.8 The cut strip procedure is applicable to heavily fulledfabrics, woven fabrics that cannot be readily raveled, felt
30、edfabrics and nonwoven fabrics. This procedure is not recom-mended for fabrics which can be raveled because the yarns atthe edges tend to unravel during testing. The recommendationregarding the minimum number of yarns in a woven specimendiscussed in 5.7 for raveled strips applies equally to cut stri

Sampling7.1 Lot SampleTake a lot sample as directed in theapplicable material specification. In the absence of such aspecification randomly select the rolls or pieces that constituteth
36、e lot sample using the following schedule:Number of Rolls, Pieces inLot, InclusiveNumber of Rolls or Pieces inLot Sample1to3 All4to24 425 to 50 5Over 50 10 % to a maximum of 10 of the rollsor piecesNOTE 3An adequate specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and supplier requires taking i
37、nto account the variability betweenrolls of fabric and between specimens from a swatch from a roll of fabricto provide a sampling plan with a meaningful producers risk, consumersrisk, acceptable quality level, and limiting quality level.7.2 Laboratory SampleFrom each roll or piece of fabrictaken fro
38、m the lot sample, cut at least one laboratory samplethe full width of the fabric and1m(1yd)along the selvage(machine direction).NOTE 4Results obtained on small hand samples or swatches can onlybe considered as representative of the sample swatch submitted and cannotbe assumed to be representative of
39、 the fabric piece from which the handsample or swatch was taken.7.3 Test SpecimensFrom each laboratory sample, take fivespecimens from the warp (machine) direction and eight speci-mens from the filling (cross) direction (if tested) for eachtesting condition.7.3.1 Testing conditions include the follo

41、 technique andunfamiliar fabrics, prepare two or three extra specimens toestablish the proper rate of loading (speed for testing).8. Conditioning8.1 For Conditioned Testing:8.1.1 If the samples have a higher moisture content than themoisture present when at equilibrium in the standard atmo-sphere fo
42、r testing textiles, precondition as directed in PracticeD 1776.8.1.2 Bring samples to moisture equilibrium in the standardatmosphere for testing textiles as directed in Practice D 1776.Equilibrium is considered to have been reached when theincrease in mass of the specimen in successive weighings mad
43、eat intervals of not less than 2 h does not exceed 0.1 % of themass of the specimen.NOTE 5It is recognized that, in practice, materials are frequently notweighed to determine when moisture equilibrium has been reached. Whileconditioning for a fixed time cannot be accepted in cases of dispute, it may
44、be sufficient in routine testing to expose the material to the standardatmosphere for testing textiles for a reasonable period of time before thespecimens are tested. As a guide, the following conditioning periods aresuggested:FiberMinimum Condi-tioning Period,h4Animal Fibers (for example, wool and
45、regenerated proteins) 8Vegetable Fibers (for example, cotton) 6Viscose 8Acetate 4Fibers having a regain less than 5 % at 65 % relativehumidity28.2 For Wet Testing:8.2.1 Specimens to be tested in the wet condition shall beimmersed in water at room temperature until thoroughly wetted(Note 6). To thoro
46、ughly wet a specimen, it may be necessary toadd not more than 0.05 % of a nonionic wetting agent to thewater. A test of any specimen shall be completed within 2 minafter its removal from the water.NOTE 6The material has been thoroughly wet out when it has beendetermined that additional immersion tim
47、e does not produce any addi-tional changes in breaking strength of test specimens. This method ofdetermination must be used in cases of dispute; however, for routinetesting in the laboratory, it may be sufficient to immerse the material 1 h.8.2.2 The procedures in this test method should be used wit
48、hcaution when testing fabrics that do not wet out uniformly andthoroughly because of the presence of sizing, oil, protectivecoatings, or water repellents.8.2.3 When the strength of wet specimens without sizing,water repellents, etc. is required, before preparing the testspecimens, treat the material
49、 as directed in Test MethodsD 629, using appropriate de-sizing, etc. procedures, that willnot affect the normal physical properties of the fabric.9. Preparation of Specimens9.1 General:9.1.1 Cut specimens with their long dimensions paralleleither to the warp (machine) direction or to the filling (cross)direction, or cut specimens for testing both directions asrequired. Preferably, specimens for a given fabric directionshould be spaced along a diagonal of the fabric to allow forrepresentation of different warp and filling yarns, or machineand cross dir
