16、59. United States1degree of fabric pilling is evaluated by comparing the tested specimens with visual standards, which may be actual fabrics orphotographs of fabrics, showing a range of pilling resistance. The observed resistance to pilling is reported using an arbitrary ratingscale.5. Significance

17、and Use5.1 Acceptance TestingThis method of testing fabrics for resistance to pilling is not recommended for acceptance testing. Ifit is used for acceptance testing, it should be used with caution because interlaboratory data are not available. In some cases thepurchaser and the supplier may have to

18、 test a commercial shipment of one or more specific materials by the best available method,even though the method has not been recommended for acceptance testing.5.1.1 If there are differences or practical significance between reported test results for two laboratories (or more), comparativetests sh

19、ould be performed to determine if there is a statistical bias between them, using competent statistical assistance. As aminimum, the test samples should be used that are as homogeneous as possible, drawn from the material from which the disparatetest results were obtained, and randomly assigned in e

20、qual numbers to each laboratory for testing. Other materials with establishedtest values may be used for this purpose. The test results from the two laboratories should be compared using a statistical test forunpaired data, at a probability level chosen prior to the testing series. If a bias is foun

21、d, either its cause must be found and corrected,or future test results for that material must be adjusted in consideration of the known bias.5.2 The pilling of textile fabrics is a very complex property because it is affected by many factors which may include type offiber or blends, fiber dimensions

22、, yarn and fabric construction, fabric finishing treatments and refurbishing method. Testing beforerefurbishing may be adviseable. The pilling resistance of a specific fabric in actual wear varies more with general conditions ofuse and individual wearers than in replicate fabric specimens subjected

23、to controlled laboratory tests. This experience should beborne in mind when adopting levels of acceptability for any series of standards.5.3 Pills vary appreciably in size and appearance and depend on the presence of lint and degree of color contrast. These factorsare not evaluated when pilling is r

24、ated solely on the number of pills. The development of pills may be accompanied by othersurface phenomena such as loss of cover, color change, or the development of fuzz. Since the overall acceptability of a specificfabric is dependent on both the characteristics of the pills and the other factors a

25、ffecting surface appearance, it is suggested thatfabrics tested in the laboratory be evaluated subjectively with regard to their acceptability and not rated solely on the number ofpills developed. A series of standards, based on graduated degrees of surface change of the fabric type being tested, ma

26、y be setup to provide a basis for subjective ratings. The visual standards are most advantageous when the laboratory test specimenscorrelate closely in appearance with worn fabrics and show a similar ratio of pills to fuzz. Counting the pills and weighing theirnumber with respect to their size and c

27、ontrast, as a combined measure of pilling resistance, is not recommended because of theexcessive time required for counting, sizing, and calculation.5.4 The degree of fabric pilling is evaluated by comparing the tested specimens with visual standards, which may be actualfabrics or photographs of fab

28、rics, showing a range of pilling resistance. The observed resistance to pilling is reported on anarbitrary scale ranging from 5 (no pilling) to 1 (very severe pilling).5.5 This test method is applicable to a wide variety of woven and knitted fabrics that vary in pilling propensity as a result ofvari

Sampling8.1 Primary Sampling UnitConsider rolls of fabric or fabric components of fabricated systems to be the primary samplingunit, as appl

37、icable.NOTE 2An adequate specification or other agreement between the purchaser and the supplier requires taking into account the variability among rolls,bolts, or pieces of fabric and among specimens from a swatch of fabric from a roll, bolt, or piece, or between cartons of garments and among garme

38、ntswithin a carton, to provide a sampling plan with a meaningful producers risk, consumers risk, acceptable quality level, and limiting quality level.8.2 Laboratory Sampling UnitFrom each primary sampling unit take one fullwidth piece of fabric that is 1 m 1 yd in lengthalong the selvage (machine di

39、rection), after first removing a 1 m 1 yd length. For fabric components of fabricated systems usethe entire system.8.2.1 For acceptance testing of garments, take one garment from each carton (see Note 2).9.

Preparation of Apparatus10.1 Maintenance Checks:10.1.1 Check the operation of the pilling tester with one or more standard in-house fabrics of known pilling resistance asdirected as follows:10.1.1.1 If the tester is in daily use, check the tester using the standard fabric(s) a

45、t least once a week.10.1.1.2 If testing is done infrequently, check the tester using the standard fabric(s) each time it is used.10.1.2 If the tester is used daily, clean the brushes with a suitable solvent such as acetone (see 6.1), remove any lint with a handcard, and clip any protruding bristles

46、at least once a week. If testing is done infrequently, check for these conditions before eachtesting session.10.2 Corrective Action:10.2.1 If the results obtained on the standard fabric are not in agreement with the established values, clean the brushes asdirected in 10.1.2.10.2.2 If cleaning fails

47、to produce results which equate the established values, sand the brushes with emery paper mounted onthe specimen holders.10.2.3 Continue testing until results are acceptable, or until a replacement set of in-house standards is established.11.
