3、its introduction in1953. The first successful instrument was an inclined plane device with the beam calibrated in pounds.The specimen was clamped with no space between the jaws and was called zero-gauge strength.Results were expressed in Pressley Index (P.I.) calculated as the force-to-break in poun

4、ds divided bythe bundle weight in mg. Obviously, P.I. is not a standard engineering unit.Before the introduction of the flat bundle test, cotton fiber strength had been measured by theChandler round bundle test (see former Method D414) and the results expressed in pounds per squareinch (psi).psi. Th

5、e U.S. Department of Agriculture obtained results from both instruments onspecimens from the same samples of a large number of cottons. From this study, an empirical equationto express flat bundle test results in psi wasBreaking strength, 1000 psi = (10.81106 3 P.I.) 0.12When it was shown that a fin

6、ite gauge length test was more highly correlated with yarn strengththan tests made at zero gauge length, the clamp design was modified to accommodate a18 inch (3.2mm)in. 3.2 mm spacer. Selection of an engineering unit for reporting of results from18 inch (3.2mm)in. 3.2 mm gauge tests presented a pro

7、blem. However, the use of the tex for linear density andthe introduction of a pendulum type instrument calibrated in kilograms led to the expression of resultsin grams-force per tex (gf/tex).gf/tex. The clamp width without spacer is 11.81 mm and with spaceris 15.00 mm. The bundle of fibers is mounte

8、d across the clamp width and trimmed to the width. Thebundle mass is mg/11.81 mm or mg/15.00 mm.The use of the flat bundle test in domestic and international commerce has had a long and successfulhistory. Correcting this error in the empirical relationship would have serious adverse affects in thete

9、xtile industry. Therefore, the empirical relationship is retained to calculate zero gauge cotton fibertensile strength designated as the Pressley strength in Eq 3 and 4 of D1445.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of (1) the tensile strength or breaking tenacity of cotton fibers as

10、 a flat bundleusing a nominal zero gauge length, or (2) the tensile strength or breaking tenacity and the elongation at the breaking load of cottonfibers as a flat bundle with18-in. (3.2-mm)3.2-mm clamp spacing. This test method is applicable to loose ginned cotton fibersof untreated cottons whether

11、 taken before processing or obtained from a textile product.1.2 This test method is designed primarily for use with special fiber bundle clamps and special strength testing instruments butmay be used with other tensile strength and elongation testing machines when equipped with appropriate adapters

Summary of Test Method4.1 A bundle of c

23、otton fibers is combed parallel with the aid of specialized clamps to minimize loose fibers that are in thebundle, secured in clamps, cut to a known length, broken in thea tensile testing machine, and weighed. Tensile strength or breakingtenacity is calculated from the ratio of breaking load to bund

26、ptance testing.5.1.1DiscussionTenacity is commonly expressed as centinewtons per tex (cN/tex), grams-force per denier (gf/den) orpounds-force per denier (lbf/den). Tenacity in centinewtons/tex is numercially equal to tenacity in grams-force/tex times 0.981.5.1.2In case of a dispute arising from diff

27、erences in reported test results when using Test Method D1445 for acceptance testingof commercial shipments, the purchaser and the supplier should conduct comparative tests to determine if there is a statistical biasbetween their laboratories. Competent statistical assistance is recommended for the

28、investigation of bias. As a minimum, the twoparties should take a group of test specimens that are as homogeneous as possible and that are from a lot of material of the typein question. The test specimens should then be randomly assigned in equal numbers to each laboratory for testing. The averagere

29、sults from the two laboratories should be compared using Students t-test for unpaired data and an acceptable probability levelchosen by the two parties before the testing is begun. If a bias is found, either its cause must be found and corrected or the purchaserand the supplier must agree to interpr

30、et future test results in the light of the known bias.5.1 This test method is considered satisfactory for acceptance testing when the levels of the laboratories are controlled by theuse of the same reference standard cotton samples because the current estimates of between-laboratory precision are ac

31、ceptableunder these conditions. If there are differences of practical significance between reported test results for two laboratories (or more),comparative tests should be performed to determine if there is a statistical bias between them, using competent statisticalassistance. As a minimum, ensure

32、the test samples to be used are as homogeneous as possible, are drawn from the material fromwhich the disparate test results were obtained, and are randomly assigned in equal numbers to each laboratory for testing. The testfrom the two laboratories should be compared using a statistical test for unp

33、aired data, at a probability level chosen prior to thetesting series. If a bias is found, either its cause must be found and corrected, or future test results for that material must be adjustedin consideration of the known bias.5.2 This test method is useful in research studies to determine the infl

34、uence of variety, environment, and processing on fiberstrength and elongation; and in studies of the relationships between these fiber properties, processing performance, and quality ofend-product.D1445/D1445M 1225.3 Values obtained for flat bundle tenacity and elongation show a high correlation wit

35、h values measured on single fibers andrequire much less time and skill.5.4 Studies have shown that strength measurements obtained with different types of instruments are highly correlated, but theresults are on different levels.35.5By use of correction factors calculated from tests made on standard

36、calibration samples of known or established test values,the results obtained with different types of instruments at a specified gage length can be adjusted to comparable levels. Due todifferences in cottons, strength test results for one gage length cannot be reliably estimated from tests made at a

37、different gagelength.5.5 By use of correction factors calculated from tests made on standard calibration samples of known or established test values,the results obtained with different types of instruments at a specified gauge length can be adjusted to comparable levels. Due tothe normal variation i

38、n cottons, strength test results for one gauge length cannot be reliably estimated from tests made at a differentgauge length.5.6 The terms tensile strength and breaking tenacity are sometimes used interchangeably. They are relational but are notequivalent (see 12.1.1 and 12.1.2). Tenacity is common

39、ly expressed as centinewtons per tex (cN/tex), grams-force per denier(gf/den) or pounds-force per denier (lbf/den).
