1、Designation:D661407(Reapproved 2015)Standard Test Method forStretch Properties of Textile Fabrics CRE Method1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6614;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last r
2、evision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the amountof fabric stretch and fabric growth after a specified extensionand held fo
3、r a specified time.1.2 While this method can be used for any fabric,knitfabrics having high stretch are better measured by test methodD2594.1.3 This test method should not be used to measure thebreaking strength and elongation of woven fabrics,which iscovered in Test Methods D5034 and D5035.1.4 The
4、values listed in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as the standard.Within the text,the inch-pound units are shown in parentheses.The valuesstated in each system are not exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from
5、 the two systems may result in nonconformancewith specification.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-

9、 Fabric Stretch and Fabric Growth A specified load isapplied to a fabric specimen,using a constant rate of extensiontensile tester at a prescribed rate of extension.After holding atthe specified load for a predetermined time,the length ismeasured.The load is removed from the specimen and allowedto r
10、elax for a specified time.A small amount of force,enoughto remove any wrinkles or folds,is applied and the specimenlength measured.The amount of fabric stretch is calculatedfrom the difference in length prior to load and under load.Fabric growth is calculated from the difference in length priorto lo
11、ading and after relaxation.5.Significance and Use5.1 This method is used to determine the stretch and growthproperties which a garment made of the fabric may be expectedto exhibit during use.5.2 This is a new method and therefore the history of data isvery small,however the excellent agreement of be
12、tween-laboratory data suggest this method may be considered foracceptance testing of commercial shipments.5.2.1 If there are differences of practical significance be-tween reported test results for two laboratories(or more),comparative test should be performed to determine if there is astatistical b
13、ias between them,using competent statistical assis-tance.As a minimum,samples used for such comparative testsshould be as homogeneous as possible,drawn from the samelot of material as the samples that resulted in disparate results1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D13 on Te
