1、Designation: D1912 00 (Reapproved 2010)Standard Test Method forCold-Crack Resistance of Upholstery Leather1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1912; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last

2、revision. A number 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 the measurement of the cold-crack resistance on all types of upholstery leathers, butespecially in

3、the field of automotive upholstery.3This testmethod does not apply to wet blue.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are providedfor information only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any

4、, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

5、list)43. Summary of Test Method3.1 In this test method the cold-crack resistance of uphol-stery leather is measured by means of a mechanically-appliedpressure to a cone-shaped specimen of leather after both thespecimen and the pressure-device have been conditioned in acarefully controlled cold cabin

6、et. Both the specimen and themachine remain in the cold cabinet during testing.4. Significance and Use4.1 The results are reproducible5and correlate with the coldimpact test6and also correlate with actual practice conditions.7Acomparison of the significance of this test method with othertest methods

Apparatus5.1 Greuel Rotary Cold-Fold Test Machine,4,8as shown inFig. 1 and consisting of two tangential knurled rollers drivenby a chain drive.5.2 Steel Die or Other Shearing Device.5.3 Cold Cabinet, capable of maintaining temperaturesfrom 50 to +20F (45 to 6C) within 61F (0.

8、5C) andflexible enough so that temperatures can be adjusted easily andquickly in 5 increments.5.4 Specimen Racks, constructed so that the specimens maybe suspended in the air by attachment at point C with a paperclip (see Fig. 2).5.5 Pliers-Type Stapler.5.6 Temperature Indicator, with a range from 5

9、0 to +20F(45 to 6C) and an accuracy of 61F (0.5C) for measuringthe temperature of the area adjacent to the specimens in thecabinet.6. Test Specimen6.1 The specimen shall be cut with a die or other shearingdevice to a size shown in Fig. 2(a). The specimen may be cutfrom any area on the hide.6.2 After

10、 cutting, the specimen shall be folded and stapledso as to make a cone shape with the finished side out, such as1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D31 on Leatherand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D31.05 on Upholstery.

This is done by stapling as close to theapex of the cone as possible, point D, and then stapling pointsA and B together. Staples should not go through the backsection, C. Alternatively, the fastening may be done by

18、meansof pressure sensitive tape along the line AB-D.7. Conditioning7.1 Bring all test specimens into equilibrium in an atmo-sphere of 506 4 % relative humidity at a temperature of 7362F (23 6 1C) before testing.7.2 When the cabinet is maintained at the required tempera-ture, hold the specimens for 6

19、0 min at this temperature andthen test them in the cold-fold test machine.8. Procedure8.1 Turn on the cold-fold test machine, open the cabinet,and insert the specimens between the rollers as quickly aspossible, being careful the temperature does not change, asindicated by a thermometer in the immedi

20、ate test area. Duringthe testing, keep the machine in the cold cabinet.8.2 Handle the specimens with either a pair of tongs orgloves, that have remained in the cold cabinet during condi-tioning. Insert the specimens between the rolls, point first withthe stapled side up.8.3 Remove the rack and speci

21、mens from the cabinet andexamine the specimens for cracks as described in 9.1.1.8.4 If other temperatures of test are required, equilibrateother sets of specimens as described in 7.2 and repeat theprocedure. Under no circumstances should specimens that havebeen put through the machine at one tempera

22、ture be retested atanother temperature.9. Report9.1 Report the following information:9.1.1 Results of the test, reporting as a failure any specimendisplaying a crack through the finish to the leather or continu-ing through the leather.9.1.2 Temperature at which the specimen fails.10.
