1、Designation:D351302(Reapproved 2018)Standard Test Method forOverlength Fiber Content of Manufactured Staple Fiber1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3513;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of l
2、ast revision.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 percentby number of overlength or multiple length fibers in a sampleof manu
3、factured cut staple.The method is applicable to fibertaken immediately after manufacturing,from the bale,or frompartially processed stock.NOTE1For measurement of length and length distribution of manu-factured staple fibers,refer to Test Method D5103.1.2 This test method covers procedures using the

5、rom a carding machine.1.2.2 The Fibrosampler Model 335B is equipped with asample plate that has 10-mm(0.4-in.)diameter sample holesand is recommended for use on unblended staple as may betaken from the fiber cutter or from a bale of staple fiber.1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound
6、 unitsare to be regarded separately as the standard.The values statedin each unit are not exact equivalents;therefore,each unit mustbe used independently of the other.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the
7、 user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established i

12、lation will appear in the testspecimen is proportional to the ratio of the total length of thatfiber length group to the total fiber length of the originalsample.The beard is biased in the favor of long fibers.4.2 The fiber beard is brushed out and laid on a specimenboard.The density of the beard of
13、 the cut staple tapers to a linethat is parallel to the base of the comb.The overlength fibersare observed to extend beyond this line and they can beidentified easily.4.3 The noticeably longer fibers are pulled from the fiberbeard,verified for over-or multiple-length and counted.The1This test method
