1、Designation: D3939/D3939M 11 D3939/D3939M 13Standard Test Method forSnagging Resistance of Fabrics (Mace)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3939/D3939M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of

2、 last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method determines the snagging resistance of a fabric.1.2 Studies of fabric snagging have shown that this t

3、est method is suitable for a range of woven and knitted fabrics made fromtextured or untextured filament yarns or spun yarns or combinations of these yarns.2,3 This test method is not suitable for (1) openconstruction fabrics (such as a net) because the points on the mace will snag the felt pad rath

4、er than the specimen, (2) very heavyor very stiff fabrics that cannot be made to fit tightly on the drum and felt pad, and (3) tufted or nonwoven fabrics because theapparatus is designed for woven and knitted fabrics.1.3 If after using this test method it is found to be too severe for your fabrics,

5、an alternative method can be used, such as BS8479 Textiles: Method for Determination of the Propensity of Fabrics to Snagging and Related Surface Defects - Rotating ChamberMethod.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or in other units shall be regarded separately as the standard. The values state

6、d in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other, without combining valuesin any way. In case of referee decisions, the SI units will prevail.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with

7、its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatorylimitations prior to use.

18、rminology D123.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A tubular specimen is placed on a cylindrical drum. Then a mace (spiked ball) bounces randomly against the rotatingspecimen. Snags are produced to a degree affected by a variety of factors. The degree of fabric snagging is then evaluated bycomparison of th

19、e tested specimens with visual standards that may be either fabrics or photographs of fabrics. The observedresistance to snagging is reported on a scale ranging from 5 (no or insignificant snagging) to 1 (very severe snagging).5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is not considered satisfactor

20、y for acceptance testing of commercial shipments of fabrics because thebetween-laboratory precision of the test method is poor (see 15.1).5.1.1 If there are differences of practical significance between reported test results for two laboratories (or more), comparativetest should be performed to dete

21、rmine if there is a statistical significant difference between them, using competent statisticalassistance. As a minimum, use the samples for such a comparative test that are as homogeneous as possible, drawn from the samelot of material as the samples that resulted in disparate results during initi

22、al testing and randomly assigned in equal numbers toeach laboratory. The test results from the laboratories involved should be compared using a statistical test for unpaired data, at aprobability level chosen prior to the testing series. If bias is found, either its cause must be found and corrected

23、 or future testingfor that material must be adjusted in consideration of the statistically significant differences.5.2 This test method may be used for quality control testing of fabrics during manufacturing and product comparisons ofdifferent fabrics by manufacturers, retailers, and users. This tes

24、t method may also be used by researchers to examine the effect ofnew fibers, yarns, fabric constructions, and finishes on the snagging resistance of fabrics.5.3 This test method may be used to test the snagging resistance of most apparel and home furnishings fabrics. However, adifferent test method

25、may be needed for different types of fabrics and different end-uses (such as towels, pants, and upholstery)(see 5.3.1).5.3.1 Some fabrics that may not be suitable for this test method are described in 1.2. Many open construction fabrics can betested for snagging resistance using AATCC Test Method 65

26、. The snagging resistance of many pile floor coverings can be testedby Test Method D1335. Test Method D5362 (Bean Bag) may also be considered as an alternative for testing the snagging resistanceof fabrics. This test method does not apply to the ABC Snag Tester.5.4 Since fabric snagging can be affec

27、ted by laundering or drycleaning, it may be advisable to test the snagging resistance ofa fabric before and after laundering or drycleaning.5.5 The snagging resistance of a specific fabric varies with individual wearers and general conditions of use. Therefore, it canbe expected that garments of the

28、 same fabric will show a fairly wide snagging resistance spectrum after wear and much greatervariation in wear than in replicate fabric specimens subjected to controlled laboratory tests. This factor should be considered whenadopting levels of acceptability for any specification that includes snaggi

29、ng resistance.5.6 Snags observed in worn garments vary appreciably in number and appearance. The appearance of a snag dependsparticularly on (1) the degree of color contrast between the snag and the surrounding area of the fabric or (2) the presence of longdistortions or long protrusions. These cond

30、itions are not evaluated when snagging is rated solely on the number of snags. SeeSection 13 for a description of color contrast, distortion, and protrusion as used in this test method; and see Figs. 1 through 3 inTest Method D5362 for pictures of fabric defects due to snagging. Because the overall

31、acceptability of a specific fabric is dependenton both the characteristics of the snags and other factors affecting fabric appearance, it is recommended that fabrics tested in thelaboratory be evaluated with regard to the defects that may be observed visually and not rated solely on the number of sn

32、agsdeveloped. A series of visual rating standards (see 6.2.4) may be set up to provide a basis for the ratings. The visual rating standardsare most advantageous when the tested laboratory specimens correlate closely in appearance with fabrics from a wear test, forexample, when tested laboratory spec

33、imens and fabrics from a wear test show similar color contrasts. In the preceding example,a series of fabrics from the wear test would be a good choice for the fabric standards described in 6.2.4.2.6.
