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 9073-9 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 9073-9:1995), which has been technically
revised.
ISO 9073 consists of the following parts, under the general title Textiles — Test methods for nonwovens:

Introduction
This part of ISO 9073 is a revision of the current drape evaluation method, ISO 9073-9:1995, Textiles — Test
methods for nonwovens —– Part 9: Determination of drape coefficient. With a conventional method using
rings of paper, some manual operations of an expert, such as contour marking, mark cutting, weighting and
comparing of weights are necessary. With this new proposed method using image processing technology with
a digital camera, various drapability parameters can be easily obtained through simple and automatic
operations. For the determination of drape coefficient, both the conventional method and the automatic
method are available. Additionally, using the automatic method, drape shape parameters and statistical
information, including drape wave amplitude, wavelength and number of nodes, can be quantitatively obtained
from a captured image. For automatic evaluation, some attachments to the conventional drape tester are
needed and they include a frame and a stand for supporting the digital camera.

Textiles — Test methods for nonwovens —
Part 9:
Determination of drapability including drape coefficient
1 Scope
This part of ISO 9073 specifies a test method that is used to determine the drape coefficient of fabrics
(nonwovens, wovens and knitted fabrics).
SI values are regarded as the official standard system of measurement for this standard test method.

drape coefficient
ratio between the area of the projected shadow of the draped specimen, expressed as a percentage, and the
area of the undraped (flat) specimen
4 Principle
The circular specimen of the fabric being tested is held horizontally between smaller concentric discs, and the
exterior ring of fabric is allowed to drape into folds around the lower supporting disc. Both of the following
evaluation methods are available in this procedure and are listed as methods A and B.
Method A, using rings of paper
The shadow of the draped specimen is cast from below onto a ring of paper of known mass and of the same
size as the unsupported part of the test specimen. The outline of the shadow is traced onto the ring of paper
and the paper is then cut along the trace of the shadow. The drape coefficient is the mass of that part of the
paper ring representing the shadow, expressed as a percentage of the mass of the whole paper ring.
Method B, using image processing technology
The shadow of the draped specimen is cast from below onto a white sheeting covering the top translucent lid
and centre-plates. Detailed quantitative information on the drapability of the test specimen is obtained from
digital images captured with a commercial digital camera (or a scanner) after cutting the paper around its
shadow contour. The captured images, initially having grey levels, are transformed into monochrome images
through noise filtering and thresholding. The two-dimensional monochrome images of draped shadows
described above are firstly transformed into polar (∅, r) coordinates as shown in Figure 1, where the X-axis
from 0° to 360° is the angle, in degrees, from the baseline passing through the centre of the circle, and r
(Y-axis) is the amplitude, in centimetres. The shape parameters of a two-dimensional geometric drape model
defined as the number of nodes (waves or folds), the positions of nodes, wavelength and amplitude data and
various statistical information, can then be obtained using image processing technology and frequency
analysis as well as the traditional drape coefficient. A three-dimensional drape shape can be regenerated from
its captured two-dimensional drape images, with a three-dimensional simulator.
