In this revision, the method has been brought
8、 up to date by making minor changes throughout the text. Contractual and legal considerations This publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application. Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from leg

Licensed Copy: sheffieldun sheffieldun, na, Wed Nov 29 07:23:24 GMT+00:00 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI BSI 20061 BS 3449:1990 1 Scope This British Standard describes a static immersion test which may be applied to any textile fabric for which a knowledge of the water absorportion
10、properties is required. NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Principle Specimens of conditioned fabric of known mass are immersed in water at a constant temperature for a specified length of time. The specimens are held down in a hor
11、izontal plane at a given depth below the surface by means of sinkers. The specimens are taken out of the water and surplus water is removed from them by centrifuging, the mass of the specimens is again determined and the absorption percentage is calculated. 3 Apparatus and reagent 3.1 Immersion vess
12、el, of non-corrosive material, at least 130 mm deep, with a flat base, and the base area being large enough to accommodate at least four sinkers. The immersion vessel shall be clean. 3.2 Four sinkers (see Appendix A). 3.3 Balance, to determine mass accurately to 1 mg. 3.4 Centrifuge, comprising a di
13、sc with a horizontal mounting surface of diameter 175 2 mm, capable of rotating at 700 10 r/min. The time required to attain the speed of 700 r/min from rest and vice versa shall be between 1 s and 2 s. The disc/pin arrangement should be such that the wet specimens cannot stick to the surface of the
14、 disc. This may be achieved by having 50 ribs, each at least 1 mm in height provided in an equally spaced radial arrangement on the surface of the disc, or by ensuring pins are of adequate length. Four steel pins, not less than 6 mm in length and spaced approximately 50 mm away from the centre of th
15、e disc, shall be provided in an equally spaced arrangement around the disc to secure the specimens. The total mass of the disc and shaft propelled by the drive motor shall be 410 10 g. The centrifuge shall be provided with a timer to automatically switch off following the prescribed rotation cycle.

17、ns without creasing. 3.8 Water, complying with grade 3 of BS 3978, at a temperature of 20 2 C. 4 Atmosphere for conditioning and testing The conditioning and testing atmosphere shall be the standard temperature atmosphere for testing textiles as defined in BS EN 20139, i.e. a relative humidity of 65
18、 2% and a temperature of 20 2 C. 5 Test specimens 5.1Dimensions Cut each test specimen approximately 80 mm 80 mm at approximately 45 to the warp or machine direction, avoiding creasing and distortion. 5.2Number Test four test specimens. 5.3Selection Take the test specimens from different places in t
19、he fabric, so that they represent the material as fully as possible. 5.4Preparation Remove loose yarns from the test specimen corners and handle the test specimens as little as possible. 6 Procedure 6.1 Condition the test specimens for at least 24 h in the standard temperate atmosphere for testing t
20、extiles (see Clause 4). 6.2 After conditioning, record the mass of each test specimen to the nearest milligram. 6.3 Insert one test specimen between the cross-pieces of each of the four sinkers (3.2) with the diagonals of the test specimens in line with the arms of the cross-pieces. 6.4 Add to the i
21、mmersion vessel (3.1) water (3.8) at 20 2 C to a depth of at least 100 mm. NOTE Use fresh water (3.8) for each set of four test specimens. Licensed Copy: sheffieldun sheffieldun, na, Wed Nov 29 07:23:24 GMT+00:00 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI BSI 20063 BS 3449:1990 6.5 Hold the first sinker with
22、the stem vertical so that the test specimen is just clear of the water surface, submerge it carefully to the bottom of the immersion vessel at the same time starting the stop-watch (3.5). Submerge the remaining three sinkers and test specimens at intervals of approximately 1 min. 6.6 If a test speci
23、men becomes displaced appreciably during the process of submerging, restore it to its proper position with the tip of a glass rod; do not touch the water with the hands. NOTE When a test specimen and sinker are submerged, the test specimen, which may be lighter than water because of entrapped air, m
24、ay press upwards against the underside of the upper arms of the cross-piece. 6.7 Take the first sinker and test specimen out of the water after they have been immersed for a period of 20 min 10 s. 6.8 Remove the test specimen from the sinker immediately and locate it on the pins of the centrifuge. R
25、un the centrifuge for (15 1) s to remove loosely attached water. 6.9 Repeat 6.7 to 6.8 with the remaining three sinkers and test specimens after each has been immersed for a period of 20 min 10 s. 6.10 Determine the mass of each of the loaded containers to the nearest milligram. 7 Calculation and ex
26、pression of results 7.1 Calculate the absorption (in %) for each test specimen from the following formula: Absorption = 100 where M1is the mass of the container (in g); M2is the mass of the container plus wet test specimen (in g); M3is the mass of the conditioned test specimen (in g). 7.2 Calculate
27、the mean percentage water absorption for the four test specimens to the nearest 1%. 8 Test report The test report shall include the following: a)the number and date of this British Standard, i.e. BS 3499:1990; b)the percentage water absorption of each test specimen; c)the mean percentage water absor
28、ption to the nearest 1%; d)details of the sample tested.

Sinkers NOTE All dimensions are nominal. A sinker is illustrated in Figure 1.
29、 It consists of a cross-piece and stem made entirely from 3 mm diameter brass rod. The cross-piece is made by silver-soldering together with four lengths of brass rod which have first been bent into U-shapes and the stem is soldered to the cross-piece. The spacing in the cross-piece is 3 mm and each
30、 of the four arms is 65 mm long. The length of the stem is 125 mm. After construction, each sinker is chromium-plated.
