Summary of Test Method4.1 A specimen, mounted in a CRE-type tensile machine, isinitially subjected to a series of five loading/unloading cyclesin which the specimen is extended and relaxed between

11、zeroand 75 % of the elongation at first filament break (FFB).During the fifth cycle, the specimen is held at the maximumextension point for 30 s, then unloaded to allow a return to itsoriginal gage length position. The specimen is then subjectedto a sixth load/unload cycle.4.2 Force at specified elo

12、ngations are calculated from theforce-elongation curve for the first and fifth loadings and forthe fifth unloading. Stress decay is calculated on the fifth cycle.Extension at a specified force is determined on the sixthloading and is used to calculate the permanent deformation.1This test method is u

Significance and Use5.1 This test method is considered satisfactory for accep-tance testing of commercial

16、shipments since current estimatesof between-laboratory precision are acceptable and the methodis used extensively in the trade for acceptance testing.5.1.1 If there are differences of practical significance be-tween reported test results for two laboratories (or more),comparative tests should be per

17、formed to determine if there isa statistical bias between them, using competent statisticalassistance. As a minimum, use samples for such comparativetests that are as homogeneous as possible, drawn from the samelot of material as the samples that resulted in disparate resultsduring initial testing,

18、and randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory. The test results from the laboratoriesinvolved should be compared using a statistical test forunpaired data, at a probability level chosen prior to the testingseries. If bias is found, either its cause must be found andcorrected, or future te

19、st results for that material must beadjusted in consideration of the known bias.5.2 Force at Specified Elongation (FASE) is a measure ofthe tensile force required to extend a textile material withinspecified limits. This characteristic of elastomeric yarn indi-cates the resistance that will have to

20、be overcome by the wearerwhile putting on a garment made of the material and is also anindication of the garments resistance to deformation caused bynormal body movements during wear. The elongations used forthese measurements are typically 100 %, 200 % and 300 %.5.3 Permanent Deformation (set) is a

21、 measure of the in-crease in length of an elastomeric yarn resulting from cyclicstretching and relaxation. The characteristic is a visible indi-cation of the realignment of intermolecular bonds within theelastic material. As with stress decay, the amount of setincreases with yarn extension; however,

22、 for any particularextension, little or no additional set takes place after five cyclesof exercising. Generally, the characteristic set of the yarn isdeveloped during fabric preparation and the fabric itself showsa negligible amount of set.5.4 Stress decay increases with yarn extension, but at anysp

23、ecified extension the stress decay takes place in the first 30s with insignificant decay after 5 min. This characteristic iscaused by the gradual realignment of intermolecular bondswithin the elastic material, and helps to explain the changes inyarn properties that accompany cyclic stretching and re

24、laxing.The realignment of the bonds is a reversible effect. Followingcomplete relaxation of the yarn, the molecules tend to assumetheir original configuration with just about complete elimina-tion of the previously observed strain.5.5 This test method was developed using elastomeric yarnsin the “as-

25、produced” condition, but may be used for treatedelastomeric yarns provided the treatment is specified. Themethod does not cover the removal of finish for the determi-nation of elastic properties of “finish-free” elastomeric yarns.6. Apparatus6.1 Specimen Boards, with short pile or plush surfaces ofb

26、lack or contrasting color, for storing specimens during con-ditioning.6.2 Tensile Testing Machine, CRE-type, conforming toSpecification D76 with respect to force indication, workingrange, capacity and verification of recorded elongation, capableof cycling, and designed for operation at a pulling spe

28、o 30 to 50 mN/tex (0.3 to 0.5mgf/d) before testing.6.6 Air Supply, capable of providing 415 kPa (60 psi) to thepneumatic clamps.7. Sampling, Test Specimens, and Test Units7.1 Lot SampleAs a lot sample for acceptance testing,take a random number of shipping units directed in anapplicable material spe

29、cification or other agreement betweenthe purchaser and the supplier, such as an agreement to usePractice D2258. Consider shipping cases or other shippingunits to be the primary sampling units.NOTE 2An adequate specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and the supplier requires taking int

30、o account the variabilitybetween shipping units, between packages or ends within a shipping unit,and between specimens from a single package to provide a sampling witha meaningful producers risk, consumers risk, acceptable quality leveland limiting quality level.7.2 Laboratory SampleAs a laboratory

31、sample for accep-tance testing, take at random from each shipping unit in the lotsample the number of packages directed in an applicablematerial specification or other agreement between the pur-chaser and the supplier, such as an agreement to use PracticeD2258. Preferably, take the same number of pa

32、ckages fromeach of the shipping units selected. If differing numbers ofpackages are to be taken from the shipping units, determine atrandom which shipping units are to have each number ofpackages for testing.7.3 Test SpecimensFrom each package or end in thelaboratory sample, take six specimens as di

33、rected in 7.3.1.7.3.1 Remove the outer layer of yarn from the package.Avoid any damaged areas in selecting segments for testing.Carefully unwind yarn from the package with as low as tensionas possible to avoid stretching. As test specimens, cut approxi-mately 125 mm (5 in.) long segments of yarn fro

34、m eachpackage, taking them at intervals of at least1m(1yd). Threeof the six specimens are used as spare to allow for unacceptablebreaks, such as caused by slippage or breaking in the clamps.7.4 Determine the tex (denier) of the yarn for each labora-tory sample using Test Method D2591 or Test Method

35、D6717.7.5 Determine the elongation at first filament bread (FFB)for each laboratory sample as directed in Test Method D2653.8. Preparation of Apparatus and Calibration8.1 Prepare and verify the calibration of the tensile testingmachine as directed in the manufacturers instructions.8.2 Set up and adj

36、ust the CRE-type tensile testing machineas follows:D2731 07 (2012)28.2.1 Examine the acrylic clamp jaw face for wear andreplace as needed. Position the jaw faces horizontally in theclamps.8.2.2 Set the distance between the jaw faces (gage length) to50 6 1mm(26 0.05 in.).NOTE 3A convenient technique

37、for checking the gage length is toplace a piece of carbon paper and white paper in the clamps and close theclamps. The distance between the marks made on the white paper by thecarbon paper represents the set gage length.8.2.3 Use a force measuring system such that the cyclingforce will be between 30

38、 and 80 % of full scale capacity.8.2.4 Set the Cycling Limits as follows:8.2.4.1 Set Minimum Extension to nominal gage length(zero extension).8.2.4.2 Set Maximum Extension equivalent to 75 % of theelongation at first filament break of the elastomeric yarn (see10.2) or 300 % of gauge length.8.2.5 Set

39、 the crosshead speed to 500 mm/min (20 in./min) or1000 % extension per min.8.2.6 Set the extension measuring system as follows:8.2.6.1 When using a chart recorder, set the chart speed to500 mm/min (20 in./min).8.2.6.2 When using an interfaced computer or microproces-sor, set parameters to obtain sel

40、ected properties using suppli-ers directions and Specification D76.8.2.7 Set the air pressure for pneumatic clamps to 415 kPa(60 psi). At this pressure, the clamping force is approximately450 N (100 lb).9. Conditioning9.1 No preconditioning is required for currently producedrubber yarns and other el

41、astomeric yarns.9.2 Condition the specimens relaxed on specimen boards inthe standard atmosphere for testing textiles as directed inPractice D1776, which is 21 6 1C (70 6 2F) and 65 6 2%relative humidity for a minimum of 4 h.10. Procedure10.1 Test the relaxed specimens in the standard atmospherefor

42、testing textiles.NOTE 4The force measuring system should be zeroed prior to runningany specimens and periodically during the course of the test, particularlyif drift is observed in the zero value of the force measuring system.10.2 Select the appropriate pretensioning weight based onthe linear densit

43、y of the yarn that will provide a 30 to 50mN/tex (0.3 to 0.5 mgf/d) tension to the yarn.10.3 Attach the selected tensioning weight (10.2)tothespecimen such that when the specimen is placed in the lowerclamp, the tensioning weight will hang freely.10.4 Position a specimen centrally between the top cl

44、ampfaces and close the clamp. Ensure that the tension weight ishanging freely below the bottom clamp.10.5 Close the lower clamp and remove the tensioningweight.10.6 Start the test apparatus and cycle the specimen fivetimes between the limits established in 8.2.4.NOTE 5If using a chart recorder, only

45、 the first loading cycle andcomplete fifth cycle need be recorded on the chart.10.7 On the fifth cycle, stop the crosshead at the maximumextension limit and hold for 30 s. At the end of holding at themaximum extension limit, return the crosshead to gage length.10.8 Immediately, start the crosshead a

46、nd record the loadingportion of a sixth cycle.10.9 Return the crosshead to the zero position, remove thespectrum and continue testing until all specimens have beentested for each laboratory sampling unit and for the lot.11.
