Significance and Use5.1 This test method is not recommended for the acceptancetesting of commercial shipments of wool top, card sliver, orscoured wool since the referee method, Test Method D 2130,isrecommended for that purpose. Although this test method isnot recommended for acceptance test

11、ing, it is useful for fastquality control checks.5.1.1 .If there are differences of practical significance be-tween reported test results for two laboratories (or more),comparative test should be performed to determine if there is astatistical bias between them, using competent statistical assis-tan

12、ce. As a minimum, use the samples for such a comparativetest that are as homogenous as possible, drawn from the samelot of material as the samples that resulted in disparate resultsduring initial testing and randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory. The test results from the laboratories

13、involved should be compared using a statistical test forunpaired data, a probability level chosen prior to the testing1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D13 on Textilesand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D13.13 on Wool and Wool Felt.Current edition approved Mar

The instruments have been calibrated to read averagediameter in microme

17、tres. Although the reading is affected bythe average fiber diameter distribution of the specimen, theresults secured by the instruments give no indication of thisdistribution. However, in converting the micrometres readingto millitex units (Annex A1), low, medium, and high standarddeviations were us

18、ed in the calculations to arrive at the rangeof millitex units which accordingly reflect the distribution offiber diameters.6.

Specimen Preparation10.1 Prepare test specimens of wool top, card sliver,

32、scoured, or grease wool as directed in Test Method D 2130.10.2 If no mechanical card is available, take two subsamplesof scoured wool, each weighing approximately 4 g more thanthe mass of wool required for measurement in the air-flowinstrument being used; hand card these subsamples at least 30stroke

33、s each and prepare a test specimen from each of them.10.3 Rinse all test specimens in the recommended solvent toreduce the extractable matter to less than 1 % of the specimenmass. Condition the test specimens as prescribed in 11.1 or11.2. From the conditioned test specimen, weigh the amount ofwool r

34、equired for measurement in the air-flow instrumentbeing used.10.3.1 Port-ArPlace approximately 12.5 g of the condi-tioned wool specimen in the balance basket. One pump of theatomizer bulb will indicate whether the specimen is too light ortoo heavy: If the meter reads above the red triangle, thespeci

35、men is too heavy; if below, the specimen is too light.Adjust the specimen to 12.5 g by adding or removing smallamounts of wool. The meter indicates the mass of the specimento within6 0.5 % if the pointer is on scale, so the mass needsto be adjusted only until the pointer reads within the redtriangle

36、.NOTE 3The accuracy of the balance should be thoroughly checkedbefore and while using the Port-Ar. The specimen may be weighed on aseparate balance.10.3.2 WIRA Fiber Fineness MeterWeigh a 2.500 60.005 g test specimen. Remove pieces of vegetable matter andother impurities before weighing.11. Conditio

37、ning11.1 For tests made on the Port-Ar as directed in 11.2,reasonable results may be obtained even if the standardatmosphere for testing is not available since the instrumentuses low-pressure ambient air. Keep the instrument in adraft-free room, away from radiators, sunlight, and otherelements which

38、 disturb temperature or air. Allow the instru-ment and the well-opened wool to be tested to remain in thesame atmospheric conditions for approximately 4 h before thespecimens are tested.11.2 For tests made on the WIRA Fiber Fineness meter asdirected in 12.2, bring the test specimen to moisture equil

39、ib-rium with the standard atmosphere. A 4 h conditioning periodis usually sufficient.12. Procedure12.1 Procedure with the Port-Ar:12.1.1 Wool Top, Card Sliver, Scoured Wool, Grease WoolUsing the weighed test specimen, (see 10.3.1) place one end ofthe sliver in the chamber and tamp in the remainder.

40、Do notfold the wool top before placing in the chamber. When all ofthe specimen has been forced into the chamber, close thecompression chamber lid, 5, in place. Pull forward on thecompression lever, 9, until it locks in place. Apply air pressure5May be obtained from Agricultural Marketing Service, Li

44、A Fiber Fineness Meter:12.2.1 Feed the weighed specimen into the metal container,meanwhile pushing the wool down evenly into the containerwith the short end of the rod provided. It is important to usethis rod and nothing else for packing since it prevents tightpacking of the fibers. Then push in the

45、 metal plunger (avoidingtrapping any fibers) until it rests on the lip of the container andscrew down the retaining collar to the furthest extent, mean-while holding the plate attached to the metal plunger to preventit rotating.12.2.2 With the control knob in the OFF position switch onthe pump then

46、turn the knob slowly until the liquid level in thegage tube falls to the lower mark reading at eye level.12.2.3 Reading at eye level across the top of the spinnerrecord the scale reading to the nearest millimetre.12.2.4 Take out the specimen, reverse its direction, repackin the container using the r

47、od and take another reading. Repeatthis until 4 readings have been recorded and take the average.Do not repack the specimen with the fingers.12.2.5 Turn the control knob back to zero.12.2.6 For wool above 30 micrometres make four readingson each of four weighings and for wool of 30 micrometres orles

48、s make four readings on each of three weighings.13. Calculation13.1 Calculate the average fiber diameter of the lot from allthe readings, to the nearest 0.05 m.14.
