Significance and Use5.1 This test m

18、ethod is considered satisfactory for accep-tance testing of commercial shipments since this test methodhas been used extensively in the trade for acceptance testing.5.1.1 In case of dispute arising from differences in reportedtest results when using Test Method D584 for acceptancetesting of commerci

19、al shipments, the purchaser and the sup-plier should conduct comparative testing to determine if thereis a statistical bias between their laboratories. Competentstatistical assistance is recommended for the investigation ofbias. As a minimum, the two parties should take a group of testspecimens that

20、 are as homogenous as possible and that arefrom a lot of the type material in question. The test specimensshould then be assigned in equal numbers to each laboratoryfor testing. The average results from the two laboratoriesshould be compared using Students t-test for unpaired dataand an acceptable p

21、robability level chosen by the two partiesbefore testing is begun. If a bias is found, either its cause mustbe found and corrected or the purchaser and the supplier mustagree to interpret future test results in the light of known bias.5.2 The wool-base content of wool in any condition or formis a ba

22、sic quantity. From it may be calculated commercialmasses or yields in any of the various recognized definedsystems used in international commerce (Note 1).5.2.1 The procedures for determining the wool base contentof greasy wool provided in this test method and in IWTOMethod 19-85(E) are in essential

23、 agreement.NOTE 3This is not true for scoured wool, as IWTO Method 19-85(E)does not require rescouring of scoured wool containing less than 5 %residual grease.5.3 Not all of the wool base present in a lot of raw wool canbe recovered in useful form by commercial cleaning opera-tions. The amount of wo

24、ol loss varies, depending on factorssuch as the character of the wool, the nature and percentage ofthe impurities present, the cleaning process and equipmentused, and so forth.5.4 No ASTM standard specifies or recommends any spe-cific procedure or practice for estimating anticipated loss ofwool duri

25、ng commercial cleaning (or other) operations. Thefollowing statutory practice is described solely for information:5.4.1 For the purpose of duty assessment on importations ofraw wool into the United States, the Tariff Schedules of theUnited States5provides a statutory formula for calculating theallow

26、ance to be made for wool “that would ordinarily be lostduring commercial cleaning operations.” The formula is basedon the clean wool fiber present (called “absolute clean content”in the Tariff Schedules) and on the vegetable matter present.The allowance, in terms of clean wool fiber present, is equa

27、l to0.5 % of the clean wool fiber present plus 60 % of thevegetable matter present, the total allowance not to exceed15 % of the clean wool fiber present. The dutiable quantity(called “clean yield” in the Tariff Schedules) is the differencebetween the clean wool fiber present and the allowance socal

The volume of thechamber must be sufficient to contain the sample, but therelative dimensions are optional. For greasy wool samplesweighing 10 kg, a chamber 300 by 300 by 700 mm issatisfactory. A re

Preparation of Sample and Test Specimens8.1 For the sampling of commercial shipments take a lotsample as directed in an applicable material specification, or asagreed upon between the purchaser and the seller. In absence ofa material specification or other agreement, take a lot sampl

42、efrom a lot of packaged raw wool as directed in Practice D1060,and take a lot sample from a lot of raw wool in bulk form asdirected in Practice D2525.8.2 WeighingDetermine the net mass, in grams, of thelaboratory sample as received to four significant figures, takingcare to avoid any change in moist

43、ure content during weighing.8.2.1 Pieces of outer bale wrappers (burlap or plastic) areoccasionally present in core samples. If such material ispresent, remove and weigh it before discarding. Deduct themass of this material from the net mass of the sample asreceived (8.2) to obtain the adjusted net

44、mass, M.8.2.2 Remove and discard, without weighing, strings andother extraneous material not containing wool or vegetablematter that are present in substantial amount.8.3 Small SamplesIf the mass of the sample is not morethan three times the scouring capacity of the scouring bowl,test the entire sam

45、ple, in one, two, or three portions as may berequired. Consider the maximum scouring capacity of the bowlto be the mass of raw wool in grams equal to 12 times thevolume of scouring solution in litres.8.3.1 If the sample is a core sample, no further preparationis required. If it is not a core sample

46、and consists of fibersexceeding 50 mm in length, cut the fibers with scissors or apaper cutter to less than 50-mm lengths.8.4 Large SamplesIf the mass of the sample exceeds threetimes the scouring capacity of the bowl (8.3), prepare testspecimens by subsampling as follows:8.4.1 Place the sample in t

47、he chamber of the subsamplingdevice (6.1), compress to a density of 0.2 to 0.3 g/cm3, and takea full-length core through each opening of the plate.8.4.2 Open the chamber, redistribute the wool, compressand take a second test specimen as in 8.4.1. Repeat 8.4.2 untilthe desired mass of core samples ar

48、e obtained.8.4.3 Remove, weigh, and retain the remainder of thesample in an airtight container for use in drawing additionaltest specimens, if necessary or desired.8.4.4 Weigh the blended core samples into individual testportions in preparation for scouring (10.1).9.
