Assignment of Grade7.1 Compare the observed average fiber diameter and stan-dard deviation in fiber diameter, determined as directed

16、inSection 6, with the specifications for the various grades for thematerial being tested.7.1.1 WoolAssign the grade that corresponds to the aver-age fiber diameter and maximum standard deviation require-ments specified in Table 1. If the observed standard deviationexceeds the maximum specified for t

17、he grade to which theobserved average fiber diameter corresponds, assign to thewool the next coarser grade. Assignment of grade is illustratedby the following examples:7.1.1.1 Example 1Average fiber diameter, 27.25 m; stan-dard deviation, 6.72 m; assigned grade, 56s.7.1.1.2 Example 2Average fiber di

18、ameter, 27.25 m; stan-dard deviation, 7.80 m; assigned grade, 54s.7.1.1.3 Example 3Average fiber diameter, 27.25 m; stan-dard deviation, 8.50 m; assigned grade, 54s.7.1.2 MohairAssign the grade that corresponds to theaverage fiber diameter and maximum standard deviation re-quirements specified in Ta

19、ble 2. If the observed standarddeviation exceeds the maximum specified for the grade towhich the observed average fiber diameter corresponds, assignto the mohair a dual grade designation, the second designationbeing one grade coarser than the grade to which the averagefiber diameter corresponds. Ass

20、ignment of grade is illustratedby the following examples:7.1.2.1 Example 1Average fiber diameter, 28.50 m; stan-dard deviation, 8.1 m; grade designation, 32s.7.1.2.2 Example 2Average fiber diameter, 28.50 m; stan-dard deviation, 8.6 m; grade designation, 32/30s.7.2 Interpretation of ResultsThe true

21、average fiber diam-eter of a lot of wool or mohair can be determined only bymeasurement of every fiber in the lot. Since this is notpracticable, reliance is placed on the result obtained throughthe measurement of a sample. The likelihood that the observedaverage fiber diameter correctly identifies t

22、he grade increasesas the average approaches the midpoint of the fineness range ofthe grade concerned, and decreases as the average approacheseither limit of such range. The probability of the correctness ofthe grade designation of a lot may be increased by increasingthe number of fibers measured.8.

23、Conformance8.1 When the purchaser and the supplier have agreed uponspecific requirements for fineness, wool or mohair that fails tomeet those requirements may be rejected. Rejection should bereported to the supplier in writing. In case of disagreement withthe results of the tests, the supplier may m
