1、Designation: D6182 00 (Reapproved 2015)Standard Test Method forFlexibility and Adhesion of Finish on Leather1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6182; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of las
2、t revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method is intended for use on finished leatherto evaluate resistance to cracking, delamination, and discolor-at
3、ion of the finish when subjected to repeated flexing. This testmethod does not apply to wet blue.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any
4、, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
