17、ard has been prepared by the Technical Committee CEN/TC 248, Textiles and textile products, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.

19、celand, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.Page 3 EN 1735 : 1996 BSI 1997 1 Scope This standard specifies two methods for determination of the flexibility of fabrics coated with rubber or plastics. Method 1 of this standard de
20、scribes the flat loop method, and method 2 describes the method of bending length. This standard does not apply to coated fabrics which, when they are cut into small pieces, tend to curl or to form a spiral, nor to those which are too rigid to form a loop. This standard is applicable: a) to the coat
21、ed fabric in the delivery state; b) to a coated fabric subjected to specified treatments. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the p
22、ublications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.

24、ated fabric, placed on a horizontal plane, by superposing the two ends which are then held together under a steel bar. Measurement of the height of the loop. The flexibility is characterized by the height of the loop; this is an inverse measure, and the lower the loop height, the greater the flexibi
25、lity. 3.2 Apparatus (see figure 1) The apparatus shall consist of: 3.2.1 Flat rectangular board. The board is equipped near one of its ends with a shoulder having its face perpendicular to the board. NOTE. The dimensions shown in the figure are given as an example; they can be increased to permit th
26、e installation of several test specimens on the same board. 3.2.2 Steel bar, of stainless steel or non-corrosive steel, having a length of approximately 200 mm and a square section of approximately 20 mm side. 3.2.3 Rule, graduated in millimetres. 3.3 Atmosphere for conditioning and testing The temp
27、erature of the test pieces has a strong influence on the value of flexibility. Therefore it is necessary to condition them for at least 24 h in one of the standard atmospheres defined in EN ISO 2231 and to carry out the test in the same atmosphere. To avoid any deformation of the test specimens, the
28、y shall be placed, during conditioning, on a horizontal surface, the face that is to form the outside of the loop being turned upwards. 3.4 Test specimens 3.4.1 Shape and dimensions The test specimen shall have the shape of a rectangle, 600 mm 5 mm long and 100 mm 2m m wide. 3.4.2 Number Use three t
29、est specimens cut in the longitudinal direction and three test specimens cut in the transverse direction. 3.4.3 Sampling The test specimens shall be cut in the usable width of the roll according to EN 22286. 3.5 Procedure Powder the surface of the board (3.2.1) evenly with zinc stearate or talcum. H
30、olding the end of the test specimen between the fingers, place it on the board so that one side rests on the board and one end is against the shoulder (the choice of the side depends on the use of the product; it is subject to agreement between the interested parties; the test may also be repeated a
31、fter the test specimen has been reversed side for side). Bring the other end onto the first end (so as to form a loop), pressing it also against the shoulder. Place the steel bar (3.2.2) on the superimposed ends. Keep the test specimen in this position for 5 min 0,5 min. Measure, with the rule (3.2.
32、3), the maximum heights of the two edges of the loop for each of the test specimens with respect to the board. 3.6 Expression of results 3.6.1 For each of the two directions there are three test specimens (see 3.4.2). 3.6.2 For each test specimen cut in the longitudinal direction, express in millime
33、tres the maximum height of each of the two edges of the loop formed. Take the arithmetic mean of the six values obtained as the result for the longitudinal direction. 3.6.3 Repeat the procedure described, for test specimens cut in the transverse direction.Page 4 EN 1735 : 1996 BSI 1997 20 Shoulder T

Apparatus 3.7 Test report The test report shall include the following: a) reference to this standard; b) the conditioning and testing atmosphere; c) full identification of the product tested;
35、d) indication of, or reference to, the side (or sides) for which the results have been obtained; e) the individual values obtained; f) the arithmetical mean of the results for each test specimen: 1) for those cut in the longitudinal direction, on the face; 2) for those cut in the longitudinal direct
36、ion, on the back side; 3) for those cut in the transverse direction, on the face; 4) for those cut in the transverse direction, on the back side; g) whether the test was conducted on coated fabric as delivered or after it had undergone specified treatments (give details); h) any deviation, by agreem
37、ent or otherwise, from the procedure specified. 4 Method 2: Bending length 4.1 Principle A rectangular strip of coated fabric is supported on a horizontal platform. When this strip is moved on the platform, the end leaves the platform then bends down under its own weight. When the strip is sufficien
38、tly advanced, the end reaches an inclined plane. The bending length is the length of the test specimen between the edge of the platform and the point 0 of the rule. This length is given by a direct reading of the rule, when no slippage occurs. 4.2 Apparatus The essential features of the flexometer u
39、sed are shown in figure 2. 4.2.1 Horizontal platform. The horizontal platform P is treated on its upper face to ensure the easy slippage of the test specimen. 4.2.2 Graduated rule. The graduated rule S shall be rigid. (A metal rule, approximately 25 mm in width, is suitable.) The under surface of S
40、is covered with a layer of high-friction material, such as a sheet of rubber, so that when S is moved, it will carry forward the test specimens placed between the slide and the surface P .Page 5 EN 1735 : 1996 BSI 1997 S D P Figure 2. Apparatus 4.2.3 Inclined plane. The inclined plane forms an angle
41、 of 41 309 309 below the horizontal (the measurement range is governed by the size of the device). 4.3 Atmosphere for conditioning and testing The temperature of the test specimens has a strong influence on the value of flexibility. Therefore it is necessary to condition them for at least 24 h in on
42、e of the standard atmospheres defined in EN ISO 2231 and to carry out the tests in the same atmosphere. To avoid any deformation of the test specimens, they shall be placed, during conditioning, on a horizontal surface, the face that is to be upwards on the flexometer being turned upwards. 4.4 Test
43、specimens 4.4.1 Form and dimensions The test specimens shall be rectangular, 25 mm 1m m wide and of a length that allows bending length measurements. A length of 200 mm is generally sufficient. 4.4.2 Number Use 10 test specimens cut in the longitudinal direction, and 10 test specimens cut in the tra
44、nsverse direction. 4.4.3 Sampling The test specimens shall be cut within the usable width of the roll according to EN 22286. 4.5 Procedure Place the flexometer on a level table. Place the test specimen between the platform P and the slide S so that the zero of the slide and the end of the test speci
45、men are in line with the mark D. Push the slide forward so that the end of the test specimen projects beyond the inclined plane, and bends down under its own weight until it reaches the inclined plane. The test should last about 10 s. The bending length is the length of the test specimen between the
46、 edge of the platform and the point 0 of the slide. This length is given by a direct reading of the slide, when no slippage occurs. Repeat the test on the other test specimens by changing the surface in contact with the platform. 4.6 Expression of results Determine the bending lengths for longitudin
47、al and transverse directions separately and on each face. For each measurement, there are five test specimens. The result obtained is the arithmetic mean of the five measurements in centimetres.Page 6 EN 1735 : 1996 BSI 1997 4.7 Test report The test report shall include the following: a) reference t
48、o this standard; b) the conditioning and testing atmosphere; c) full identification of the product subjected to the test; d) indication of, or reference to, the side (or sides) for which the results have been obtained; e) the individual values obtained; f) the arithmetical mean of the results for ea
