This practice recommends a control textile havinga known wear performance history to be included with ot

24、heritems being tested. Statistical methods for design of test andanalysis of data are included that are applicable to all weartests. Standard procedures for evaluation of textiles are pro-vided.5. Significance and Use5.1 This guide may be used to evaluate textiles used inapparel, upholstered furnitu

25、re, floor coverings, window treat-ments, and bed, bath and table linens.5.2 This guide may be used for several purposes:5.2.1 To determine the comparative performance of new orexisting products,5.2.2 To determine the suitability of current products indifferent end-uses, and5.2.3 To evaluate and comp

26、are the effect of wear of con-struction details as well as specific fabrics, fibers, dyeings,finishing, fabrication techniques, etc.5.3 This guide provides for flexibility in design and evalu-ation since the information sought from each wear test willvary (see Appendix X1).5.4 This guide may be used

27、 to compare the wear perfor-mance of two or more textiles when these are included in thesame test, or to compare a textile whose properties have notbeen evaluated with one having a known performance history.6.

Sampling, Selection, and Number of Specimens7.1 Division into LotsFor accep

32、C 27261.7This is the same as ISO R105/1, Part 2.D 3181 95 (2008)2NOTE 1A realistic specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and the supplier requires taking into account the variabilitybetween shipping cartons, between items within a carton, and betweenspecimens within an item so as to

33、provide a sampling plan which has ameaningful producers risk, meaningful consumers risk, acceptablequality level, and limiting quality level.7.3 Laboratory SampleAs a laboratory sample for accep-tance testing, take at least two items from each shipping cartonin the lot sample.7.4 Test SpecimensTake

34、test specimens from each item inthe laboratory sample as directed in the individual test methodsor as agreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier.Perform each test on the product as it will reach the consumer.8. Procedure8.1 Decide on the type and design of the textile to be tested.8.2 Define

35、 the objectives of the test clearly.8.3 List the information to be obtained from the test.8.4 Select the performance properties that must be evaluatedto obtain the necessary information. See Table 1.8.5 Decide which specific areas of the textile will beevaluated for each property. See Table 2.8.6 Es

36、tablish how each performance property will be evalu-ated and what rating scale will be used.8.7 For each performance property, decide what test valueor grade will constitute a satisfactory or unsatisfactory perfor-mance to meet the objectives of the test (see Note 2).NOTE 2These values are establish

37、ed based on experience and mayvary with end use. There are generally accepted techniques or referencesfor establishing these values.8.8 Identify which evaluation procedures are destructiveand nondestructive. Nondestructive evaluations can occur dur-ing the total wear period at predetermined times. D

38、estructiveevaluations should occur at the end of the total wear period,unless additional textile items are included in the initial weartest plan for withdrawal and destructive testing.8.9 Establish the wear period at which time the test isterminated automatically.8.10 Alternatively, establish the pe

39、rcentage of specimensthat must fail to constitute overall unsatisfactory performance.Terminate the test when the established level for failure hasbeen reached (see Note 2).8.11 Establish the number of wear-refurbishing cycles thatwill constitute overall satisfactory performance. The wear testmay be

40、terminated at this point even though no specimen mayhave failed.8.12 Define the use-refurbishing cycle by establishing thenumber of hours (days) worn or used, and the number of usesthe textile will receive before refurbishing, or both, and themethod by which the item will be refurbished.8.13 Select

41、a suitable control textile to include in the test asa standard of comparison.8.14 Based on the number of conditions being tested, aswell as the time and cost involved, develop a suitable designfor the wear test (see Appendix X1).8.15 Decide on, and arrange for, the number of participantsneeded to co

42、nduct the test according to the selected plan.8.16 Determine the exact sizes of the garments or othertextiles required for each participant.Wear Test Identification Number _Wear Level _Fabric Identification _PARTICIPANTS12345678910etc.Evaluation DateTimes WornHours WornTimes RefurbishedAbrasionBaggi

Suggest that

45、one textile of each type be retainedin its new condition for comparison with the used textiles.8.20 Issue the textiles to the proper participant along withwritten instructions regarding how the textile is to be used(worn) and cared for, as well as when it is to be returned forevaluation.8.21 After e

46、ach wear-refurbishing cycle or wear period hasbeen completed, evaluate the textiles for previously specifiedperformance properties. Where visual ratings are involved, it isrecommended that three trained observers be used. Record thetest value or grade for each property on a separate form tofacilitat

47、e statistical analysis of the data. See Fig. 1.8.22 Continue to wear-test and evaluate the textiles until thepredetermined endpoint of the test has been reached.
