2、 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 This test method provides a procedure for determiningthe effects of climatic temperature on the tensile strength

3、andelongation properties of geotextiles.1.2 The effect of temperature on the stability of geotextilesis reported as the change in tensile strength and elongationbetween tests performed as directed in Test Method D 5035, inthe standard atmosphere for testing textiles, and tests per-formed under condi

4、tions at which the geotextile is expected toperform in the field.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 atmosphere for testing geotextiles, nair maintainedat relative humidity of 50 to 70 % and at a temperature of 216 2C (70 6 4F).3.1.2 temperature stability, nfor a geotextile, the percentchange in tensile strength or in percent elongation as measure

Summary of Test Method4.1 Specimens of a geotextile are conditioned at select

9、edtemperatures in an environmental chamber attached to a tensiletesting machine. While maintaining these temperatures, 2 in.cut or ravel strip tensile tests are performed as directed in TestMethod D 5035. The same tests are conducted as control underthe standard laboratory test conditions. Tensile s

10、trength andpercent elongation properties obtained at various test tempera-tures are recorded. Changes in strength characteristics due tothe effects of temperature are determined.4.2 The temperatures used for conditioning and testing thegeotextiles are the temperatures at which the geotextile willper

11、form or are typically exposed to in the field.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is used for evaluating the relativeeffects of temperature on geotextiles manufactured from dif-ferent polymers, by a different manufacturing process, or both.5.2 During shipping and storage, the geotextile may

12、beexposed to abnormal temperatures. The fabric could be testedat these temperatures to determine the detrimental effects ofthese conditions on the strength properties.5.3 This test method may also be used to evaluate the cycliceffects of temperature (freeze-thaw), that is, samples can beconditioned

13、to below normal temperatures (below freezing)and then to above normal temperatures (elevated temperatures)for a given number of cycles. Strength characteristics can bedetermined after these cyclic exposures.5.4 Most nonwoven, woven, and composite fabric can betested by this method. Modification of t

14、he techniques is likelyto be necessary for any fabric having a strength in excess of179 kg/cm (1000 lb/in.) width. This test method is notrecommended for knitted fabrics.5.5 This test method is an index test method and is notrecommended for acceptance testing of commercial shipments,since informatio

18、 of a dispute arising from differences inreported test results when using Test Method D 4594 foracceptance testing of commercial shipments, the purchaser andthe supplier should conduct comparative tests to determine ifthere is a statistical bias between their laboratories. Competentstatistical assis

19、tance is recommended for the investigation ofbias. As a minimum, the two parties should take a group of testspecimens that are as homogenous as possible and that arefrom a lot of material of the type in question. The testspecimens should then be randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory f

20、or testing. The average results from the twolaboratories should be compared using Students t-test forunpaired data and an acceptable probability level chosen by thetwo parties before the testing is begun. If a bias is found, eitherits cause must be found and corrected or the purchaser and thesupplie

21、r must agree to interpret future test results in the light ofthe known bias.6. Apparatus6.1 Tensile Testing Machine, of the constant rate-of-extension (CRE) or constant rate-of-traverse type with auto-matic recorder conforming to the requirement of SpecificationD 76.6.2 Environmental Chamber, capabl

22、e of maintaining a tem-perature range from 40 to + 100C (40 to + 212F) andequipped with temperature regulation capable of maintainingthe test temperature within 62C (64F) inside the chamber.6.3 Various Tubing and Fittings, to hook up the gas to theenvironmental chamber.6.4 Thermometer, capable of me

23、asuring the temperaturerange within which tests are being performed and graduated ina 1C (2F) division scale.7. Materials7.1 Liquid Nitrogen, commercial grade or any other drymedium capable of producing temperature below 0C (32F).7.1.1 WarningSince liquid nitrogen is a cryogenic liquidwhich produces

24、 extremely low temperatures when vented tothe atmosphere, keep hands clear of open valves and tubings,etc. During testing, use insulated leather gloves to handlesamples and to open and close the environmental chamberdoor. The laboratory should be well ventilated.7.1.2 Other gases which can be used a

25、re helium 167C(269F), oxygen 119C (183F), argon 121C (186F),and carbon dioxide 62C (79F). Temperatures values listedare the minimum temperatures these gases can attain.7.1.3 The use of liquid nitrogen is suggested for the test.Nitrogen is less hazardous, more economical than other gases,and also cap

26、able of attaining a minimum temperatureof 127C (196F). Oxygen, being a strong oxidizer, shouldbe avoided if possible; otherwise, use cautiously in a wellventilated area away from open flame.8. Sampling8.1 Division into Lots and Lot SampleUnless otherwiseagreed upon as in an applicable material speci

27、fication, dividethe material into lots and take a lot sample as directed inPractice D 4354. Consider rolls of fabric to be the primarysampling units.8.2 Laboratory SampleTake for the laboratory sample, aswatch extending the width of the fabric and approximately 1m (1 yd) along the selvage from each

28、roll in the lot sample. Theswatch may be taken from the end portion of a roll providedthere is no evidence that it is distorted or different from otherportions of the roll. In cases of dispute, take a swatch that willexclude fabric from the outer wrap of the roll or the inner wraparound the core.8.3

29、 Test SpecimensFor the standard conditions and foreach test temperature to which the geotextile is to be exposed,cut five specimens at least 50.8 mm (2 in.) wide by 152.4 mm(6 in.) long from each swatch in the laboratory sample with thelong dimension of the specimens parallel to the lengthwisedirect

30、ion. Cut five specimens of the same size from eachswatch in the laboratory sample with the long dimension of thespecimen parallel to the width-wise direction. Prepare thespecimens as directed in Test Method D 5035 for ravelled striptest, cut strip test, or both.9. Test Set-up9.1 Disconnect the jaw c

38、 elongation for specimensconditioned and tested at a specific test temperature.NOTE 1Under normal field conditions, geotextiles will be exposed tothe temperatures in the range of 40 to 49C (40 to 120F). Sometimesduring shipping and storage, the geotextile fabric may be exposed totemperatures other t
