What is ISO 13938-1 - Bursting properties of fabrics about?
ISO 13938-1 is the first part of the ISO 13938 multi-series on bursting properties of fabrics. The burst test technique is used to measure the strength of fabrics and textile materials by providing stress on the material from all directions equally at the same time.
ISO 13938-1 describes a hydraulic pressure method for the determination of bursting strength and bursting distension of textile fabrics. The method is applicable to knitted, woven, nonwoven, and laminated fabrics. It can be suitable for fabrics produced by other techniques. The test is suitable for test specimens in the conditioned or wet state.
Who is ISO 13938-1 - Bursting properties of fabrics for?
ISO 13938-1 on bursting properties of fabrics by pneumatic method is useful for:
- Textile manufacturers
- Textile testing laboratories
- Product development teams / innovation teams
- Quality control personnel
Why should you use ISO 13938-1 - Bursting properties of fabrics?
Bursting strength refers to the force required to break the fabric. ISO 13938-1 walks you through the test methods with details on principals, sampling, apparatus, and atmospheres for conditioning and testing.
Diaphragm correction has been discussed in detail in ISO 13938-1. In addition, the wet test has been described in ISO 13938-1. Using ISO 13938-1 guidelines you can determine the bursting properties of fabrics and determine their application for products accordingly.
