United States1trade for the acceptance testing of commercial shipments offabrics, but caution is advised since technicians may fail to getgood agreement between results on certain fabrics. Compara-tive tests as directed in 5.1.1

16、 may be needed.5.1.1 In case of a dispute arising from 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

17、. Statistical assis-tance is recommended for the investigation of bias. As aminimum, the two parties should take a group of test speci-mens that are as homogeneous as possible and that are from alot of fabric of the type in question. The test specimens shouldthen be randomly assigned in equal number

18、s to each laboratoryfor testing. The average results from the two laboratoriesshould be compared using appropriate statistical analysis andan acceptable probability level chosen by the two parties beforethe testing began. If a bias is found, either its cause must befound and corrected or the purchas

19、er and the supplier mustagree to interpret future test results with consideration to theknown bias.5.2 Microprocessor systems for automatic collection of datacan provide economical and reliable results when properlycalibrated. See Test Methods D2261 and D5587.6. Apparatus6.1 Falling-Pendulum (Elmend

20、orf-Type) Tester4The testerincludes: a stationary clamp, a clamp carried on a pendulumthat is free to swing on a bearing, means for leveling asapplicable, means for holding the pendulum in a raisedposition, means for instantly releasing the pendulum, andmeans for measuring the force to tear the test

21、 specimen.6.1.1 A knife can be mounted on a stationary post for initialslitting of the specimens centered between the clamps andadjusted in height to give a tearing distance of 43.0 6 0.15 mm(1.69 6 0.005 in.); that is, the distance between the end of theslit made by the knife and the upper edge of

22、the specimen is43.0 6 0.15 mm (1.69 6 0.005 in.) when the lower edge of the63.0-mm (2.5 6 0.005 in.) wide specimen rests against thebottom of the clamp.6.1.2 With the pendulum in its initial position ready for atest, the two clamps are separated by a distance of 2.5 6 0.25mm (0.1 6 0.01 in.) and are

23、 aligned such that the clampedspecimen lies in a plane parallel to the axis of the pendulum,the plane making an angle of 0.480 rad (27.5 6 0.5) with theperpendicular line joining the axis and the horizontal lineformed by the top edges of the clamping jaws. The distancebetween the axis and the top ed

24、ges of the clamping jaws is1036 0.1 mm (4.055 6 0.004 in.). The clamping surface ineach jaw is at least 25 mm (1.0 in.) wide and 15.9 6 0.1 mm(0.625 6 0.004 in.) deep.6.1.3 The tester may have a pointer mounted on the sameaxis as the pendulum to register the tearing force, or it may besubstituted by

25、 means of calculating and displaying the requiredresults without the use of a pointer, such as digital display andcomputer driven systems. Preferably the clamps may be airactuated, but manual clamping is permitted.6.1.4 The test instrument should be equipped to provideinterchangeable full scale forc

26、e ranges. Typical full scaleranges are shown in Table A3.1.6.2 Calibration Weight(s) for graduation of 50 % of the fullscale force range, or other means as described by the manu-facturer of the test apparatus.6.3 Cutting Die having essentially the shape and dimensionsshown in Fig. 1(a) or (b). Eithe

The criticaldimension of the test specimen is th

28、e distance 43.0 6 0.15 mm(1.696 0.005 in.) which is to be torn during the test.NOTE 1The improved die model shown in Fig. 1(a) has two newfeatures not found in the original model, Fig. 1(b), namely a cutout for thebottom of the specimen to aid in centering it in the clamps, and (optional)provision f

Sampling and Test Specimens7.1 Lot SampleAs a lot sample for acceptance testing,randomly select the number of rolls or pieces of fabri

32、c directedin an applicable material specification or other agreementbetween the purchaser and the supplier. Consider the rolls orpieces of fabric to be the primary sampling units. In the4Apparatus is commercially available. FIG. 1 Die Diagram for Cutting Notched SpecimensD1424 09 (2013)2absence of s

33、uch an agreement, take the number of fabric rollsor pieces specified in Table 1.NOTE 2An adequate specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and supplier requires taking into account the variability betweenrolls or pieces of fabric and between specimens from a swatch from a rollor piece o

34、f fabric to provide a sampling plan with a meaningful producersrisk, consumers risk, acceptable quality level, and limiting quality level.7.2 Laboratory SampleFor acceptance testing, take aswatch extending the width of the fabric and approximately 1m (1 yd) along the machine direction from each roll

35、 or piece inthe lot sample. For rolls of fabric, take a sample that willexclude fabric from the outer wrap of the roll or the inner wraparound the core of the roll of fabric.7.3 Test SpecimensFrom each laboratory sampling unit,take five specimens from the machine direction and fivespecimens from the

36、 cross-machine direction, for each testcondition described in 9.1 and 9.2, as applicable to a materialspecification or contract order.7.3.1 Direction of TestConsider the long direction of thespecimen as the direction of test.7.3.2 Cutting Test SpecimensTake the specimens to beused for the measuremen

37、t of machine direction with the longerdimension parallel to the machine direction. Take the speci-mens to be used for the measurement of the cross-machine withthe longer dimension parallel to the cross-machine direction.Use the cutting die described in 6.3 and shown in Fig. 1(a) or(b), as applicable

38、. When specimens are to be tested wet, cutfrom areas adjacent to the dry test specimens. Label tomaintain specimen identity.7.3.2.1 In cutting the woven fabric specimens, take care toalign the yarns running in the short direction parallel with thedie such that when the slit is cut, the subsequent te

39、ar will takeplace between these yarns and not across them. This precautionis most important when testing bowed fabrics.7.3.2.2 Cut specimens representing a broad distributionacross the width and length, and preferably along the diagonalof the laboratory sample, and no nearer the edge than one-tenthi

40、ts width. Ensure specimens are free of folds, creases, orwrinkles.Avoid getting oil, water, grease, etc. on the specimenswhen handling.NOTE 3The reading obtained is directly proportional to the length ofthe material torn, therefore, it is essential that the specimen be prepared tothe exact size spec

Ensure the clamps are spaced as directedin A1.4.NOTE 4For standard test apparatus, the useable portion of the ful

42、lscale force range is 20 to 80 %. For the high capacity test instrument, theuseable portion of the full scale force range is 20 to 60 %.8.2 When equipped with a registering sensor, examine thescale and the complementary sensor, as applicable. Using careand without touching the sensor, vacuum away an

46、ract order.9.1.2 After preconditioning, bring the test specimens tomoisture equilibrium for testing in the standard atmosphere fortesting textiles as directed in Practice D1776 or, if applicable,in the specified atmosphere in which the testing is to beperformed, unless otherwise directed in a materi

47、al specificationor contract order.9.2 Condition 2, Wet Specimen Testing Conditioning:9.2.1 When desizing treatments are specified prior to wettesting, use desizing treatments that will not affect the normalphysical property of the fabric as directed in Test MethodD629.9.2.2 Submerge the specimens in

48、 a container of distilled ordeionized water at ambient temperature until thoroughlysoaked (see 8.2.1.1).9.2.2.1 The time of immersion must be sufficient to wet outthe specimens, as indicated by no significant change in tearingforce followed by longer periods of immersion. For mostfabrics this time p

49、eriod will be about 1 h. For fabrics notreadily wet out with water, such as those treated with water-repellent, or water resistant materials, add a 0.1 % solution ofa nonionic wetting agent to the water bath.10.
