1、Designation: D 3992 94 (Reapproved 2006)Standard Specifications forFineness of Wool Top or Mohair Top and Assignment ofGrade1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 3992; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision

2、, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These specifications are applicable in the classification,by fineness grade, of the fiber in wool top,

8、ation expresses the varia-tion in fiber diameter by means of distribution of fiber diametermeasurements.3.1.3.2 The term “grade” should not be confused with theterms “quality” and “type.” “Quality” is a term that includesnot only fineness but also characteristics such as length, crimp,strength, elas

The Bradford designations, for whichno standards exist, use a scale similar to that for gradedesignations (for example: 64s, 56s, and so forth) and refer toqu

10、ality and not solely to fineness. “Type” is a term designatinga particular combination of characteristics applicable to aspecific use or descriptive of geographical origin, breed ofsheep, or preparation for market.3.1.4 mohair, nthe hair of the Angora goat, Capra spe-cies.3.1.5 top, nin wool, a cont

15、.5. Significance and Use5.1 These specifications are considered satisfactory for clas-sifying wool top or mohair top by grade and provide a basis foracceptance of commercial shipments.6. Test Method6.1 Test the material as directed in Test Method D 2130.Measure at least the minimum number of fibers

16、needed toattain confidence limits of the mean within 60.4 m at aprobability level of 95 % (see Annex A1 of Test MethodD 2130).7. Assignment of Grade7.1 Compare the observed average fiber diameter and fiberdiameter distribution, determined as directed in Section 6, withthe specifications for the vari

17、ous grades for the material beingtested in Table 1 or Table 2. Assign the grade that correspondsto the average fiber diameter and fiber diameter distributionrequirements specified in Table 1 for wool top or Table 2 formohair top. If the observed average diameter and fiber diam-eter distribution corr

18、espond to a single grade, assign that grade.If the fiber diameter distribution does not meet the require-ments for the grade to which the average fiber diametercorresponds, assign a dual grade designation, the seconddesignation being one grade coarser than the grade to which theaverage fiber diamete

19、r corresponds.

29、.7.2 Interpretation of ResultsThe true average fiber diam-eter of a lot of wool top or mohair top can be determined onlyby measurement 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 observ

30、edaverage fiber diameter correctly identifies the 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

31、 by increasingthe number of fibers measured.8. Conformance8.1 When the purchaser and the supplier have agreed uponspecific requirements for fineness, wool or mohair top that failsto meet those requirements may be rejected. Rejection shouldbe reported to the supplier in writing. In case of disagreeme

32、ntwith the results of the tests, the supplier may make claim for aretest.9.
