1、Designation:D259107(Reapproved 2020)Standard Test Method forLinear Density of Elastomeric Yarns(Short LengthSpecimens)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2591;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year
2、 of last 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 lineardensity of short lengths of“as produced”elastomeric yarnsmade fr
3、om rubber,spandex or other elastomers.NOTE1For the determination of linear density of elastomeric yarnsusing skeins,refer to Test Method D6717.1.2 This test method is not applicable to covered,wrapped,or core-spun yarns,or yarns spun from elastomeric staple,orelastomeric yarns removed from fabrics.1
4、.3 This test method is applicable to elastomeric yarnshaving a range of 40 to 3200 dtex(36 to 2900 denier).1.4 The values stated in either SI units or U.S.Customaryunits are to be regarded separately as standard.Within the testthe US Customary units are in parentheses.The values stated ineach system
5、 are not exact equivalents;therefore,each systemshall be used independently of the other.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,health,and environment

10、 accep-tance testing of commercial shipments because current esti-mates of between-laboratory precision are acceptable and themethod is used extensively in the trade for acceptance testing.5.1.1 If there are differences of practical significance be-tween reported test results for two laboratories(or
11、 more),comparative tests should be performed to determine if there isa statistical bias between them,using competent statisticalassistance.As a minimum,use samples for such comparativetests that are as homogeneous as possible,drawn from the samelot of material as the samples that resulted in dispara
12、te resultsduring initial testing,and randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory.The test results from the laboratoriesinvolved should be compared using a statistical test forunpaired data,at a probability level chosen prior to the testingseries.If bias is found,either its cause must be fou
13、nd andcorrected,or future test results for that material must beadjusted in consideration of the known bias.5.2 Linear density of elastomeric yarns is used in somecalculations for tensile and elastic properties.5.3 The test method is based on elastomeric yarns in lthe“as-produced”condition,but may b
