(ISO 2231:1989) EN ISO 12945-2, Textiles — Determination of fabric propensity to surface fuzzing and to pilling — Part 2: Modified Martindale method (ISO 12945-2:2000) EN ISO 12947-1, Textiles — Determination of the abrasion resistance of fabrics by the Martindale method — Part 1: Martindale abrasion testing apparatus (ISO 12947-1:1998) ISO 105-F09, Textiles — Tests for colour fastness — Part F09: Specification for cotton rubbing cloth 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 coated fabric fabric with an adherent, discrete continuous layer of rubber and/or plastic based material on one or both surfaces (see EN 13360) 3.2 soiling process of transferring one or more unwanted substances to the surface of a material NOTE
The term "staining": a special case of soiling caused by one or more dyes or pigments. 3.3 cleanability property of the coated fabric to be restored to its original appearance after cleaning
a) solid soil and dyes transferred by a soiling cloth;
b) an aqueous soil and
c) an oily soil.
After soiling and a conditioning period the specimens are cleaned. The specimens are visually assessed before and after cleaning. 5 Apparatus and materials 5.1 Martindale apparatus, according to EN ISO 12947-1. 5.2 Pilling specimen holder heads, for the Martindale apparatus (5.1), including the auxiliary mandrel device for specimen mounting, as defined in EN ISO 12945-2. Pilling specimen holder fitted with ring weight and the nominal 12 kPa loading piece (sum of the mass of the applied load and the mass of the specimen holder assembly of (1 010 ± 15) g). NOTE 1 This exerts a nominal pressure of 1,6 kPa on the test specimen during the test. NOTE 2 The use of the mandrel is necessary to correctly mount the soiling cloth on the holder and to avoid contact with the soiling surface of the cloth. Use the option that forms a Lissajous figure with a (60 ± 1) mm stroke. It should be noted that this stroke differs from the standard machine setting for the textile pilling test. WARNING — Some Martindale apparatus have been designed such as the clamping ring is fastened around the abradant table with protuberant screws. Such screws do not allow mechanically the free movement of the pilling specimen holder heads, and then, such apparatus are not available to perform this test method. 5.3 Wool felt underlay, according to EN ISO 12945-2, cut to a diameter of (90 ± 1) mm, for the pilling holder (5.2). 5.4 Wool felt underlay, according to EN ISO 12947-1, cut to a diameter of (140 ± 1) mm, for the abrading table of the Martindale apparatus (5.1). 5.5 Circular sample cutters, for the specimen and soiling cloth, one cutter with a diameter of at least 140 mm. 5.6 Pipettes, for application of the liquids, accurate to at least 0,1 ml. 5.7 Glass plates, size at least 150 mm x 150 m
