Scope:

This method describes a procedure for conditioning textile materials to moisture equilibrium with the standard atmosphere.

 

The standard atmosphere is defined as air maintained at a relative humidity of 65 and a temperature of 20°C.  For the purpose of the procedures described in this method, a variation of ± 2  relative humidity and ± 2°C from the defined standard atmosphere shall be permitted in the maintenance of the conditioning atmosphere.

 

Tests in which differences in the moisture content of the specimen will influence the results are carried out on material in moisture equilibrium with the standard atmosphere.

Project need:

• Withdrawal
