Significance and Use5.1 This test method is considered satisfactory for accep-tance testing of commercial shipments because current esti-mates of between-laboratory precision are acceptable and themethod is used extensively in the trade for acceptance testing.5.1.1 If th

17、 numbers to each laboratory for testing.Other materials with established test values may be used forthis purpose. The test results from the two laboratories shouldbe compared using a statistical test for unpaired data, at aprobability level chosen prior to the testing series. If a bias isfound, eith
18、er its cause must be found and corrected, or futuretest results must be adjusted in consideration of the knownbias.5.2 Elapsed time between spinning and testing has a markedeffect on the results of the draw tension test, especially duringthe first 24 h. Therefore, if tested within 24 h of spinning,s
19、pecimens should be compared only if tested after the sameelapsed time. No specimen should be tested within4hofspinning because the aging process is at its most rapid rateduring this period, and the differences in rate due to fiberstructure are most pronounced.5.3 The extension force of manufactured
20、filament yarns isrelated to the alignment of the molecules in the yarn filaments,which influences the yarn processing behavior. Knowledge ofthis property of partially oriented yarn is useful to determineprocessing conditions.6. Apparatus6.1 Extension Force Measuring Instrument,4,5which willperform t
21、he test on a running threadline. This instrumentshould include the following: (1) an input section to withdrawthe yarn from a package and position the yarn for delivery tothe drawing section and establish constant tension, (2)adrawing section that should include a constant heat source toprovide for
22、the extension of the yarn, and (3) a means ofrecording the force required to draw the yarn.7. Sampling and Test Specimens7.1 Primary Sampling UnitConsider shipping containersof yarns to be the primary sampling unit.7.2 Laboratory Sampling UnitFrom the combined num-ber of primary sampling units in a
23、designated lot, take tenrandomly selected packages as directed in Practice D2258 aslaboratory sampling units.7.3 Test SpecimensFor acceptance testing, take one testspecimen from each laboratory sampling unit. For nylon andpolyester, use a 50-m test length. For polypropylene, use a100-m test length.8
24、. Conditioning8.1 Prior to conditioning, prepare the test packages byremoving at least 100 m (10 yds) of yarn from the outside ofeach test package to avoid testing nonrepresentative yarn. Nopreconditioning is required.NOTE 1Preconditioning is generally not advisable because it prolongsthe time requi
25、red for conditioning.8.2 Bring the specimens in package form to moistureequilibrium for testing in the standard atmosphere for testingtextiles 216 1C (70 6 2F) and 65 6 2 % relative humidityin accordance with Practice D1776. A 24-h period is usuallysufficient.9. Procedure9.1 Perform all tests in the
26、 standard atmosphere for testingtextiles, which is 21 6 1C or 70 6 2F and 65 6 2 % relativehumidity.9.2 Calibrate the test instrument as specified by the manu-facturer. Test certified control packages and evaluate themusing statistical procedures to verify calibration.9.3 Test Conditions:9.3.1 Use t
27、he test conditions as specified in Table 1 for tothe instrument being used. The use of these conditions willallow for the direct comparison of test results from the twoinstruments.NOTE 2Due to the difference in heater length on the two testinstruments, the draw roll speed is different to maintain th
28、e same dwelltime of the yarn in the heater. It is important to maintain the same dwelltime in the heater at a given heat to assure reproducible data for extensionforce test.NOTE 3For conditions other than those given in 9.3.1, see AppendixX1 for test condition optimization, which provides for direct
29、 comparisonbetween users.9.4 Procedure for Testing Specimens:9.4.1 Remove surface yarn from the outside of each packageimmediately before the test is run to remove damaged ordisturbed yarn.9.4.2 Mount the test package on a suitable holder.9.4.3 Turn the instrument on.9.4.4 Feed the yarn through the
30、instrument as specified bythe instrument operators manual (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).9.4.5 Set the yarn test speed.9.4.6 Check the yarn pretension, if applicable.9.4.7 Run the test for a minimum of 1 min.10.

36、TIMIZATION OF EXTENSION FORCE TEST CONDITIONSX1.1 The selection of test conditions (yarn speed, heatertemperature, and draw ratio) that will assure data reproductiv-ity for extension force testing is as follows:X1.1.1 Select a draw ratio (DR) based on the ratio of the tex(denier) of the feed yarn to
37、 the drawn yarn, using Eq X1.1:DR 5 F/D (X1.1)where:DR = draw ratio,F = feed yarn, tex (denier), andD = drawn yarn, tex (denier).X1.1.2 If a set of draw rolls is not available at the calculatedDR, use the next higher ratio that is attainable.X1.2 Select speed and temperature settings that assureeffe
38、ctive yarn temperatures that exceed the glass transitiontemperature (Tg) of the yarn being tested. This conditionprovides the most stable results for extension force testing.This condition is met on the flat portion of the curves in Fig.X1.1.X1.2.1 To select speed and temperature combinations, de-ve
39、lop a series of extension force versus speed plots at increas-ing heater temperature settings as shown in Fig. X1.1. Selectheater temperatures and speed combinations that fall on the flatportion of the curve.X1.3 The fiber producer should be a source for testconditions that provide the most stable t
40、est results for extensionforce testing.FIG.
