Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 9073-10 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles.
ISO 9073 consists of the following parts, under the general title Textiles — Test methods for nonwovens:
— Part 1: Determination of mass per unit area
— Part 2: Determination of thickness
— Part 3: Determination of tensile strength and elongation
— Part 4: Determination of tear resistance
— Part 6: Absorption
— Part 7: Determination of bending length
— Part 8: Determination of liquid strike-through time (simulated urine)
— Part 9: Determination of drape coefficient
— Part 10: Lint and other particles generation in the dry state
— Part 11: Run-off
— Part 12: Demand absorbency

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 9073-10:2003(E)

Textiles — Test methods for nonwovens —
Part 10:
Lint and other particles generation in the dry state
1 Scope
This part of ISO 9073 specifies a test method for measuring the linting of nonwovens in the dry state. It can
also be applied to other textile materials.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 554, Standard atmospheres for conditioning and/or testing — Specifications
ISO 14644-1, Cleanrooms and associated controlled environments — Part 1: Classification or air cleanliness
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
lint
fibre fragments released during handling
3.2
linting
release of lint and other particles during handling
3.3
coefficient of linting
log of the particle count applied to all or to a part of the measurement channels
4 Principle
This procedure describes a modified Gelbo Flex method in which the sample is subjected to a combined
twisting and compression action in a test chamber. During the flexing, air is withdrawn from the chamber and
particulates in the air stream are counted and classified in a particle counter. Depending on the choice of
counter, the size ranges can fall within the limits of 0,3 µm or 0,5 µm to 25 µm.
See Annex A for general information on reproducibilty.
ISO 9073-10:2003(E)
5 Apparatus
5.1 Lamina flow hood, vertical, for use in a clean-air station to ensure a clean test environment.
NOTE A Class 5 clean room in accordance with ISO 14644-1 may be used as an alternative.
5.2 Flexing unit (modified Gelbo Flex), consisting of two circular plates, of diameter 82,8 mm, one fixed
and the other moveable, but located on a mechanism that allows it to move towards and away from the fixed
plate at a frequency of 60 cycles/min whilst at the same time rotating clockwise and anti-clockwise through an
angle of 180°, in synchronization with a to-and-fro movement. See Figure 1.
The plates have 8 holes (diameter 12,5 mm) located 10 mm from the outer edge and equally spaced.
The distance between the plates at the starting position is (188 ± 2) mm and the stroke of the linear motion is
(120 ± 2) mm.
Clamping devices are used to fix the test piece, in a tubular form, to the circular plates.
5.3 Flexing chamber and air collector, in which the flexing unit is enclosed in an antistatic perspex box
measuring (300 × 300 × 300) mm (see Figure 2). This chamber has removable front and back panels for
cleaning and purging with filtered, clean air. The back and two sides each have two holes (diameter 10 mm)
located 25 mm from the top of the chamber and spaced equally across the 300 mm of each panel.

Figure 2 — Flexing chamber and air collector
The intake probe of the air collector is fixed to the centre of the base in the chamber, 2 cm above the base
plate (see Figure 3).
The diameter of the intake probe end is (40 ± 5) mm.
The flexible duct connecting the air collector to the particle counter has the following characteristics.
 polyurethane or polyester lined vinyl or similar;
 maximum length 1 500 mm;
 inner diameter (8,5 ± 1,5) mm;
 not kinked nor curved with a small curvature radius.

5.4 Particle counter, with the following main characteristics:
 8 measurement channels;
 overall size range: 0,3 µm or 0,5 µm to 25 µm;
 air flow: (28,3 ± 1,4) l/min;
 sampling time selectable between 1 s and 24 h.
5.5 Glue, for sealing the cylindrical test piece.
5.6 Gloves, for use in ISO class 5 clean room. See ISO 14644-1.
