1、Designation: D 7330 071Standard Test Method forAssessment of Surface Appearance Change in Pile FloorCoverings Using Standard Reference Scales1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 7330; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the

2、 case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1NOTEAdded research report footnote to Section 12 editorially in June 2009.1. Scope1.1 This test me

3、thod covers the assessment of changes ofsurface appearance of pile floor coverings after exposure toactual or simulated foot traffic. This test method applies to pileyarn floor coverings that are, or have been, installed; laboratoryfloor-trafficked samples; or textiles floor coverings traffickedby m

4、echanical traffic simulators. The subjective assessment isfacilitated by use of reference scales that are based on digitalimages of representative pile yarn floor covering styles andconstructions.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use

9、D 123.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The floor covering shall be tested in a mechanical wearsimulator or tested under controlled laboratory foot traffic testsreferenced in Practices D 5251, D 5252, D 5417, D6119, andD 6962. The tested floor covering shall then be assessed forsurface appearance change

10、by comparing unexposed controlsto the exposed sample by using the appropriate AppearanceChange Grading Scale.5. Significance and Use5.1 The determination of surface appearance change in pileyarn floor covering is useful in quality and cost control duringmanufacture of pile yarn floor covering. This

11、test method isconsidered satisfactory for acceptance testing of commercialshipments because current estimates of between laboratoryprecision are acceptable, and this test method is commonlyused in trade for acceptance testing.5.2 If there are differences of practical significance betweenreported tes

12、t results for two laboratories ( or more), compara-tive test should be performed to determine if there is astatistical bias between them, using competent statistical assis-tance. As a minimum, use the samples for such comparativetests that are as homogenous as possible, drawn from the samelot of mat

The test results from the laboratoriesinvolved shall be compared using a statistical test for unpaireddata, a probability level chosen prior to the testing series. If abias is found either its ca

16、use must be found and corrected, orfuture test results for that material must be adjusted inconsideration of the known bias.6.

Sampling, Test Specimens, and Test Units7.1 Test specimens consist of previously esposed specimenstested in accordance to the appropriate test method and anunexposed 9control9 specimen.8. Conditioning8.1 All sp

19、ecimens shall be allowed to recover at ambientroom conditions, undisturbed, for a minimum of 16 hours priorto grading. The specimens shall not be stacked on top of eachother.9. Procedure9.1 Place unexposed and exposed specimens under andperpendicular to the specified lighting such that the unexposed

20、specimen is adjacent to the exposed portion of the exposedspecimen. The specimens shall be lain laid in a manner as toorient the pile directions in the same direction.9.2 Select the appropriate reference scale, which mostresembles the construction of the pile yarn floor covering beingassessed9.3 Obs

21、erving features such as crushing, loss of tuft defini-tion, and matting, choose the reference scale grade, which mostnearly resembles the degree of surface appearance changebetween the exposed and unexposed specimens.9.4 Aminimumof three assessors shall grade the specimens.The assessors shall each o

22、bserve the specimens from a distanceof 0.5-1.- m (approximately 1.5 ft. - 3.0 ft.) at a 45-90 anglefrom the specimen. Assessors shall observe specimens fromvarious directions and rate the highest degree of surfacechange.9.5 Each assessor shall grade each specimen independentlyof the other assessors.

Calculation or Interpretation of Results10.1 If specimens are trafficked in machine and crossdirection, average the ratings for each direction to the nearest0.1 unit and then average all ratings together to the nearest 0.1unit.10.2 If specimens are trafficked in machine and crossdirection, avera

Precision and Bias312.1 An interlaboratory study was conducted in 1999 inwhich randomly drawn samples of three materials were evalu-ated for surface appearan

26、ce change by six laboratories. Eachlaboratory used three operators, each of whom evaluated onespecimen from each material using Test Method D 7330 A:White Nylon Cut Pile Material B: Gray Nylon Cut PileMaterial C Berber Olefin Loop.12.2 The precision was characterized byASTM E11 Qualityand Statistica

27、l Committee, Practice E 691. The data from eachoperator was calculated individually and not as averages. Thisstudy should be considered a preliminary evaluation, a moreextensive study is currently planned.12.3 Requirements for determining precision of TestMethod D 7330 Carefully examine the data for

28、 cases having nodata for a particular material within a lab. Unbalanced studiescant be properly calculated by this program, (All labs nothaving the same number of materials).
