Test results for fiber densitywill also vary depending on the te

Multiply g/cm3by 1000 to obtain kg/m3and mulitply lb/ft3by16.018 to obtain kg/m3.desorption, na process in which a sorbe

If air is cooled sufficiently, the saturation water-vaporpressure becomes equal to the actual water-vapor pressure and anyfurther cooling beyond this point will normally result in the conden-sation of moisture.effective insulation ratio, nindicates the increase in in

Th

The relationship between moisture contentand moisture pick-up is shown by the equations:C 5 100 P/1001P!P 5 100C/100 2 C!where:C = moisture content, %, andP = moisture pick-up, %.moisture content (d

See moisture pick-up.moisture equilibrium, nthe condition reached by a materialwhen it no longer takes up moisture from, or gives upmoisture to, the surrounding atmosphere. (Comparemoisture-free.)DISCUSSIONThe

39、 establishment of equilibrium between a materialand the surrounding atmosphere is dependent upon the exposure time,the difference in moisture levels between the material and theatmosphere, and motion of the air about the material. The level at whichthe moisture in the textile reaches equilibrium dep

40、ends upon the sidefrom which equilibrium is approached. Because of this difference,equilibrium for textiles should be approached from the dry (but notmoisture-free) side which is faster. Superficial equilibrium is reachedvery rapidly when air comes into contact with the outer surfaces of atextile. M

41、oisture equilibrium can be reached in a reasonable time onlyif the air to which the sample is exposed is in motion. Moistureequilibrium, with air temperature (in motion) and relative humiditycontrolled to prescribed levels, is achieved when successive weighingsdo not show a progressive change in mas

D1776, D885/D885Mmoisture-free, adjin textiles, a descriptive term for a mate-rial that (1) has been exposed to a flow of desiccated air ata specified temperature until there is no further significantchange in mass, or (2) has been treated by

43、a distillationprocess using a suitable solvent. (Syn. zero-moisture.)(Compare moisture equilibrium.)DISCUSSIONMoisture determinations frequently involve the changein mass of an oven-dried specimen. If the air in the oven containsmoisture, the oven-dried specimen will also contain some moistureeven t

44、hough it no longer shows a significant change in mass. This is dueto the establishment of moisture equilibrium under the existing condi-tions. To ensure that the specimen is actually moisture-free, it must beexposed to desiccated air until it shows no further significant change inmass.Although heati

45、ng textiles in dessicated air to temperatures as highas 110C increases the rate of moisture loss without changing the finalequilibrium mass of the moisture-free textile, heating also increases thepossibility of removing other matter. The distillation process may besubstituted provided the textile do

46、es not contain any distillable,water-soluble matter.moisture pick-up, nat moisture equilibrium, the mass ofabsorbed and adsorbed water that is held by a material,compared to the mass of the dried material. (Comparemoisture content and moisture regain.)DISCUSSIONMoisture pick-up is usually expressed

47、as a percentagebased on the dried mass of the material and is calculated using theequation:P 5 100 A 2 D!/Dwhere:P = moisture pick-up, %A = mass of material before drying, andD = mass of the material after drying under specifiedconditions.There is a relationship between moisture pick-up and moisture

48、content since both may be calculated from the same data. Thedifference is in the bases used for calculating the percentages, originalversus dried material mass. The relationship between moisture contentand moisture pick-up is shown by the equations:C 5 100P/1001P!P 5 100C/100 2 C!where:C = moisture

49、content, %, andP = moisture pick-up, %.Since moisture pick-up, like moisture content, involves the originalmass, or “as-is, where-is” (from a location with unknown temperature andhumidity conditions) state of the material, it is generally unknown if theloss in mass on drying is caused by the loss of any materials other thanwater.moisture regain, nthe amount of water resorbed by a driedmaterial at specified equilibrium conditions of temperatureand humidity, compared to the mass of the dried material.(See standard moisture
