29、leather is partially immersed in water in a vertical position. After 120 min, the following parameters are measured:a) wicking value as the maximum height reached by the water front on the strip of leather;b) percentage increase of the weight of the test piece due to absorption of water.4 Apparatus

From the sample, using the press knife specified in 4.6, cut four rectangular test pieces (100 2) mm (2

34、rom each hide or skin, provided that the overall total is not less than two test pieces in each direction.5.2 Condition the leather sample in accordance with ISO 2419.5.3 Measure the thickness of the test pieces in accordance with ISO 2589.5.4 Using a water resistant marker, mark lines parallel to t

In this ca
36、se, a mass (4.5) of (10 1) g shall be applied to the lower edge of the test piece using a nylon thread or a small hook through a hole (4.7) of approximately 2 mm diameter made at a distance of (5 1) mm from the lower edge and in the centre of the width of the test piece (see Figure 1).The hole (4.7)
