Both appearance andperf

12、ormance may be affected by changes in mass per unit area.4.2 In case of a dispute arising from differences in reportedtest results when using this test method for acceptance testingof commercial shipments, the purchaser and supplier shouldconduct comparison testing to determine if there is a statist

Test Specimen5.1 Sampling Units:5.1.1 Uncoated Floor CoveringThe basic sampling unitof uncoated floor covering is a

18、production roll.5.1.2 Coated Floor CoveringThe basic sampling unit ofcoated floor covering is a shipping roll. The number ofshipping rolls obtained from each production roll ranges fromone to over ten.5.2 Lot SampleTake a lot sample as directed in PracticeE 122 when statistical knowledge of the prod

19、uct variability andtest method precision is available, and a decision has beenmade on the maximum deviation that can be tolerated betweenthe estimate to be made from the sample and the result thatwould be obtained by measuring every sampling unit of the lot.Otherwise the number of sampling units in

20、a lot sample and theuse of the test results obtained from the individual test samplesshall be in accordance with the manufacturers quality controlprogram or with the specification agreed upon between thepurchaser and the supplier.5.3 Laboratory Sampling UnitAlaboratory sampling unitshall consist of

21、a full width section of floor covering cut fromone end of each roll in the lot sample and shall be at least 100mm (4 in.) longer than the specimens required for the testsbeing conducted. Do not cut a laboratory sampling unit ofcoated floor covering from a seam end of a production roll.5.4 Test Speci

22、mens:5.4.1 A test specimen is a designated area of a test samplecut from the test sample. For test samples 3000 mm (120 in.)wide or wider, three test specimens are required for a testmethod, one at each edge no nearer to the edge than 5 % of thetotal floor covering width and one in the middle portio

23、n of thetest sample. For test samples at least 1500 mm (60 in.) wide butless than 3000 mm, take two test specimens, one at each edgeno nearer to the edge than 5 % of the total floor covering width.For test samples less than 1500 mm wide, take one specimenfrom the middle.5.4.2 Where it is known that

24、systematic variations in a floorcovering characteristic may occur in bands 460 mm (18 in.) ormore in width, as with a modular pattern device havingseparate controls or adjustments for each module, take testspecimens from the middle of each band.5.4.3 When a full-width test sample is not available, t

25、akespecimens as directed in 5.4, and state in the report the widthavailable and the number of test specimens taken.5.5 Atest result is the average of the measurements made ona set of test specimens as described in 5.4. In these methods,directions are given only for obtaining a test result from onete

26、st sample. The value representative of the lot being sampledwill be the average of the test results for all the test samples inthe lot sample.6. Conditioning6.1 When required, condition the specimens or the testsample in the standard atmosphere for testing textiles, that is21 6 1C (70 6 2F) at 65 6

27、2 % relative humidity, for 12 hor until the mass changes no more than 0.1 % in 2 h.6.2 If the fiber in any layer of the backing has a commercialregain of over 5 %, the specimen shall be conditioned beforemeasuring. Commercial moisture regains for textile fibers arelisted in Table 1 in D 1909.7. Tota

Pile Yarn Mass Per Unit Area9.1 ScopeThis test method applies only to coated pileyarn floor coverings.9.2 Summary of Test MethodOne or two strip specimensare taken as directed in 9.7.2 from each test specimen such

48、 thatthe combined mass per unit area of the strip specimen(s) iswithin 1 % of the mass per unit area of the test specimen. Thetotal mass of the selected strip specimens taken from all testspecimens of the test sample is designated M. Most of the pileis shear from the strip specimens and discarded, l

The buriedpile yarn in the stubble specimens along with adhering coatingmaterial is manually removed from the backing fabric with theassistance of a solvent that dissolves or softens the coatingmaterial. Most of the adhering coating material is removedfrom the fiber of this buried pile yarn by further soaking insolvent and by abrasion. The total mass of this partially cleanedfiber from all the strip specimens is designated C. The amountof residual coating material on this fiber is determined bydiss
