1、Designation: D1234 13Standard Test Method ofSampling and Testing Staple Length of Grease Wool1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1234; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A n

2、umber 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 method2covers procedures for sampling andmeasuring the unstretched staple length, and variability inlength, of grease or pulle

3、d wool staples. The test method is alsoapplicable to mohair and other animal fibers in staple form. Theprocedure is not recommended for individual fibers or groupsof straightened fibers.NOTE 1The determination of fiber length in wool top is covered inTest Method D519, the determination of fiber leng

Summary of Test Method4.1 By hand or by means of a sampli

8、ng tool, staples(subsampling units) are withdrawn from randomly selectedsampling units (bags, bales, or packages) from a lot of wool orother animal fibers. The unstretched lengths of the staples aremeasured and the average staple length, standard deviation,and coefficient of variation calculated.5.

9、Significance and Use5.1 The testing procedure in this test method for thedetermination of staple length is considered satisfactory foracceptance testing of commercial shipments of grease woolsince the test method has been used in the trade for acceptancetesting.5.1.1 In case of a dispute arising fro

10、m differences inreported test results when using this test method for acceptancetesting of commercial shipments, the purchaser and the sup-plier should conduct comparative tests to determine if there isa statistical bias between their laboratories. Competent statis-tical assistance is recommended fo

11、r the investigation of bias.As a minimum, the two parties should take a group of testspecimens that are as homogeneous as possible and that arefrom a lot of material of the type in question. The testspecimens should then be randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory for testing. The averag

12、e results from the twolaboratories should be compared using Students t-test forunpaired data and an acceptable probability level chosen by thetwo parties before the testing is begun. If a bias is found, eitherits cause must be found and corrected, or the purchaser and thesupplier must agree to inter

13、pret future test results in the light ofthe known bias.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D13 on Textilesand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D13.13 on Wool and Felt.Current edition approved July 1, 2013.

17、e length distri-bution of a lot of wool in order to assign length classes whendetermining the conformance of lots and shipments to lengthspecifications.5.3 In this test method, the size of a lot covered by the testprocedure is limited to not more than 200 packages per test.Any shipment exceeding the

18、 above limits is divided into lotswithin the prescribed limits.5.4 The nature of the sampling procedure is such that greasewool staples as originally drawn from the wool of the lotrequire only a slight amount of preparation before measure-ment. The bulk and laboratory samples are synonymous in thist

19、est method.5.5 Compression of wool in the bale makes it difficult topenetrate the interior of the bale with the sampling tool.However, staples can be drawn from the surface of the balewith the sampling tool or by hand.5.6 Practice D4271 contains information on how to write asection on sampling in te

Apparatus6.1 Sampling ToolAspear-shaped tool with a hook or barbat one end for use in extracting a small quantity of wool fromwithin a bag (Fig. 1). This tool is not available commercially.6.2 V

22、e number of packages of wool from a lot asdirected in Table 1. Consider packages of wool as the primarysampling units.7.2 Laboratory SamplesConsider the packages of wool inthe lot sample as the laboratory sample.7.3 Test SpecimensFrom each package in the laboratorysample, take ten staples, with five

23、 staples being taken at equallyspaced intervals from each of two opposite sides of thepackage. Each staple should be about 0.25 in. (5 mm) indiameter. If larger, reduce the staple to the correct size bygently withdrawing the excess fibers from one side of thestaple. Take the staples as follows:7.3.1

24、 Sampling by Tool:7.3.1.1 Depth of DrawGage the depth for inserting thesampling tool so that different levels of the package aresampled. For example, draw the first specimen from the centerof the package, the next about two thirds of the distance fromthe outside to the center, and the third specimen

25、 about one thirdthe distance from the outside to the center. Repeat this order at5Donald D. Johnston, H. Dean Ray, and Elroy M.

Pull the toolfrom the package, using a slight turning movement. Retain, asthe test specimen, that portion of the

Withdraw a staple at random from theexposed wool with the fingers. Discard and replace the stapleif it appears to h

29、ave been cut by opening the burlap.8. Conditioning8.1 For tests made as directed in Section 9, specimens needbe neither preconditioned nor conditioned.9. Procedure9.1 Place the ruler lengthwise on the velvet board. Lay thestaple alongside the ruler, flattening and pressing the staple outstraight in

30、order to remove any crooks or bends. Do not stretchor elongate the staple by pulling or exerting pressure. With thestaple held in position by the pile of the fabric, carefully adjustthe position of the ruler so that the zero mark corresponds withthe base of the staple. Remove the hands and read the

31、length ofthe staple to the nearest 0.25 in. (5 mm). When a staple doesnot have a clearly defined length, that is, a blunt end, but hasa tapered end or tip, determine the length at a point midwaybetween the base of the taper and the tip. Record the measure-ments obtained from successive staples by 0.

32、25 in. on aclass-interval form as shown in Table 2.10. Calculation10.1 Calculate the average staple length and the standarddeviation rounded to the nearest 0.1 in. (2 mm), and calculatethe coefficient of variation to the nearest 0.1 %. If the distri-bution of staple lengths is desired, calculate cum

33、ulative fre-quencies and construct a cumulative staple length frequencycurve. The worksheet illustrated in Table 2 is recommended forrecording and calculating the test data. Plot a cumulative staplelength frequency curve like that illustrated in Fig. 2. Plot thepoints using the first cumulative freq

34、uency and the correspond-ing upper limit for each class interval (100 % and 4.125 in. forthe first class interval in Table 2).
