26、ments 4 Test methods 4.1 Determination of the crimp contraction 4.1.1 Principle The crimp of a specimen of a textured filament yarn in the form of a skein of known nominal linear density is developed by treatment with hot air while the specimen is subjected to a low tensile force. After reconditioni
27、ng, the straightened length of the skein is measured under a high tensile force. After a specified recovery time, the contracted length of the skein, shortened by the effect of the yarn crimp, is measured under the low tensile force. Crimp contraction is calculated as the difference between the two
28、length values related to the straightened length. 4.1.2 Apparatus 4.1.2.1 Reel A reel with a circumference of (1 000 2,5) mm is used for winding the yarn skeins. The reel shall be fitted with a device to provide the specified tensile force per unit linear density to the material being wound on with
29、the maximum possible accuracy and to maintain the separation between a number of skeins wound at the same time. 4.1.2.2 Automatic testing device A suitable testing device (see Figure 1) uses a loading apparatus, which extends the skein at a speed of (1 000 10) mm/min until the pre-set tensile force
30、is reached at which the yarn crimp is pulled out, and which determines the straightened skein length related to that tensile force. NOTE The speed of the loading apparatus may be reduced e.g. in case of less extensible textured yarns, for example to 250 mm/min, provided that this is clearly stated i
31、n the test report. Only test results obtained with identical speeds may be compared. The same apparatus determines in a second measurement the contracted length of the skein under a low tensile force provided by a pre-tension weight attached to the skein or a hook-shaped pre-tension weight attached
32、to the skein. Resolution of the length measurement is 0,05 mm or better. A number of skeins are arranged in a holder, with the skeins being tested in succession. The holder can be removed from the automatic testing device. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Mon Apr 17 08:12:44 BST 2006, Uncontrolled Copy,

35、ate the holder of the automatic testing device in an upright position, so that the skeins can hang perfectly. The oven shall be operated with forced air circulation.

36、ation of the test specimens Take off at least 500 m from the packages representing the laboratory samples before preparing the test specimens. Prior to testing, the specimens are exposed for at least 24 h to the standard atmosphere according to EN ISO 139. To permit the use of the same linear densit
37、y related tensile forces for yarns of different linear density, a skein is produced having a linear density of about 2 500 dtex (250 tex) by winding a corresponding length of yarn onto a reel. While the yarn is being reeled, a tensile force per unit linear density of 2 cN/tex 10 % shall be maintaine
38、d as uniformly as possible. (See Annex A for the calculation of the length of yarn to be reeled.) The two yarn ends shall then be tied together, but in such a way that stretching of the yarn is avoided. When suspending the skeins from the specimen holder, the knots are placed at the suspension hooks
39、. Throughout the sampling and conditioning procedures, particular care should be taken that any stress applied to the specimens in the course of handling does not exceed the tensile force applied during reeling. 4.1.4 Procedure After the skein is removed from the winding reel, it is suspended from t
40、he holder of the automatic testing device, and a tension weight of 2,5 cN (e.g. an S-shaped hook) is attached to the skein to produce the required tensile (force per unit linear density of 0,01 cN/tex) which remains on the skein throughout the whole testing procedure. Following this, the holder with
41、 the skeins is placed into the oven preheated to a temperature of (120 4) C, with its forced air circulation in operation, and is kept there for a period of 10 min 20 s to develop the crimp. Placing the holder into the oven shall be carried out within a time of 5 s to 10 s to minimize the temperatur
42、e drop in the oven. When the crimp development time has elapsed, the holder with the specimens is removed from the oven and exposed again to the standard atmosphere for 24 h for reconditioning and relaxation. NOTE 1 The period of conditioning the specimens after reeling as well as after the heat tre
43、atment may be reduced, e.g. to 30 min, provided that this is clearly stated in the test report. Only test results obtained with identical conditioning periods may be compared. NOTE 2 Polypropylene or polyethylene may be tested under different conditions of time and temperature, provided that this is
44、 clearly stated in the test report. Only test results obtained under identical test conditions may be compared. To determine the straightened length L0, the holder with the specimens is placed into the automatic testing device tester. Thereafter, starting with the first specimen in the holder, the l
45、oading apparatus gradually extends the skein until a tensile force of 500 cN (i.e. 2 cN/tex 5 %) is reached. This force is maintained for (10 1) s, and after this, the straightened length L0is measured. Following the determination of the straightened length, the loading apparatus travels in the oppo
46、site direction to release the tensile force on the skein. The specimen holder now turns to the next position, and the loading apparatus subjects the next skein to the same tensile force. After all specimens in the holder have been tested, and after a relaxation period of 10 min 20 s has elapsed, the
47、 contracted length L1of each skein under the pre-tension weight of 2,5 cN is measured by the same loading apparatus.

48、ressed in percent, is calculated from the following equation: 010100LLLCC= (%) where L0 is the straightened length; L1 is the contracted length. 4.2 Determination of the hot air shrinkage 4.2.1 Principle Skeins of known nominal linear density are subjected to a low tensile force and treated with hot
49、 air at a specified temperature for a specified time. The skein length is measured under a specified tensile force suitable to straighten the skein before and after the heat treatment. Shrinkage is calculated as the difference between the two length values related to the length before the heat treatment. 4.2.2 Apparatus 4.2.2.1 Reel A reel with a circumference of (1 000 2,5) mm is used for winding the yarn skeins. The reel shall be fitted with a device to provide the specified tensile force per unit linear density to the material
