Snippetscut from the various forms of wool are cleaned where required,and dispersed in a mixture of isopropanol and water. Thesuspension of snippets is transporte

17、d through a measuring cellwhich is positioned in a beam of laser light. The reduction inintensity of the laser beam as the individual snippets passthrough the beam of light, approximately 500 m in diameter,is sensed by a detector and transformed, using a calibrationlook-up table, into a diameter in

18、micrometres. Each diametermeasurement is allocated to a diameter class, and when thespecified number of fibers has been measured, the classcontents are statistically analyzed to produce the mean andstandard deviation of fiber diameter for the specimen. Fulldistribution data are also available in the

Significance and Use5.1 This test method is considered satisfactory for accep-tance testing of commercial shipments of wool and otheranimal fibers in raw and sliver form because current estimatesof between-laboratory precision are acceptable.
