Sig
19、nificance 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. The same is truefor the cut strip test for felted or nonwo
20、ven 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 competent statistical assis-tance. At a minimum, use the samp
21、les 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 results from the laboratoriesinvolved should be compared u
22、sing 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 known bias.5.2 The method is not recommended for knitted fa
23、bricsbecause 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 strong fabrics, or fabrics made fromglass fibers (see Specific
24、ation D579), 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 testing machinesoperating on different principles is not rec
25、ommended. 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 tensile testingmachine is preferred in these methods, in cases of
26、 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 specific width offabric. The breaking force information on wove
27、n 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 than 20 yarnsacross the width of the specimen. If a 20-yarns
28、-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 should be reported asobserved on a 50-mm (2-in.) strip withou
29、t 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, feltedfabrics and nonwoven fabrics. This procedure is not recom-
30、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 strips.6. Apparatus, Reagents, and Materials6.1 Tensile Testing

In the absence of such aspecification randomly select the rolls or pieces that constitutethe lot sample us
36、ing 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 into account the
37、 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 from the lot sampl
38、e, 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 the fabric pie
39、ce 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 following:7.3.1.1 Wa
40、rp or Machine DirectionStandard conditionsfor testing textiles,7.3.1.2 Warp or Machine DirectionWet at 21C (70F),7.3.1.3 Filling or Cross DirectionStandard conditions fortesting textiles, and7.3.1.4 Filling or Cross DirectionWet at 21C (70F).7.3.2 When using the constant-time-to-break technique andu
41、nfamiliar fabrics, prepare two or three extra specimens toestablish the proper rate of loading (speed for testing).NOTE 5Reinforcing fabric systems generally need to demonstrate acompatibility with the properties of the system being reinforced. Thiscomes with an understanding that this compatibility
42、 may be influenced bysuch factors as stress and strain orientation. It is therefore suggested thatthe option of testing in off-axis orientations, such as 645, be consideredto verify suitability for applications where stresses and strains are knownto exist in orientations other than along the directi
43、on of the primary axes.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 for testing textiles, precondition as directed in PracticeD1776.8.1.2 Bring samples to moisture equilibrium i
44、n the standardatmosphere for testing textiles as directed in Practice D1776.Equilibrium is considered to have been reached when theincrease in mass of the specimen in successive weighings madeat intervals of not less than 2 h does not exceed 0.1 % of themass of the specimen.NOTE 6It is recognized th
45、at, 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 maybe sufficient in routine testing to expose the material to the standardatmosphere for testing textiles for a
46、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 regenerated proteins) 8Vegetable Fibers (for example, cotton) 6Viscose 8Acetate 4Fibers having a regain less
47、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 7). To thoroughly wet a specimen, it may be necessary toadd not more than 0.05 % of a nonionic wetting agent to thewater.
48、 A test of any specimen shall be completed within 2 minafter its removal from the water.NOTE 7The material has been thoroughly wet out when it has beendetermined that additional immersion time does not produce any addi-tional changes in breaking strength of test specimens. This method ofdeterminatio
49、n 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 withcaution 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 as directed in Test Methods D629,using appropriate de-sizing, etc.
