5、est Method for Measuring Thickness of LeatherTest Specimens3.Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 compressibilitythe percentage change in thicknessof a specimen on being subjected to a specified pressure for aperiod of time.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 A load of 12 000 lbf(53 kN)or 3000 psi(21 MPa)isappl
6、ied to a leather specimen 2 by 2-in.2(51 by 51-mm2).Thepercentage change in initial thickness,determined by measur-ing thicknesses before and after compression,represents thecompressibility of the sample.5.Significance and Use5.1 Compressibility is considered an important factor thatinfluences wear
