Textiles - Determination of the elasticity of fabrics - Part 3: Narrow fabrics (ISO 20932-3:2018)

EN-ISO 20932-2 specifies the test methods which can be used to measure the elasticity and related properties of narrow fabrics. Two methods are itemized: one for the purpose of product quality assurance (method A) and the other for product performance when in use (method B).

Textilien - Bestimmung der Elastizität von textilen Flächengebilden - Teil 3: Schmaltextilien (ISO 20932-3:2018)

Dieses Dokument legt die Prüfverfahren fest, die zur Messung der Elastizität und zugehöriger Eigenschaften von Schmaltextilien verwendet werden können. Zwei Verfahren werden genannt, von denen das eine (Verfahren A) der Sicherung der Produktqualität und das andere (Verfahren B) zur Ermittlung der Gebrauchseigenschaften des Produktes dient.

Textiles - Détermination de l'élasticité des étoffes - Partie 3: Etoffes étroites (ISO 20932-3:2018)

Le présent document spécifie des méthodes d'essai qui peuvent être utilisées pour mesurer l'élasticité et les propriétés afférentes des étoffes étroites. Deux méthodes sont décrites: l'une est destinée au contrôle qualité de production (méthode A), l'autre à la performance du produit dans les conditions d'utilisation (méthode B).

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.

and held in this position for a given time period
Note 1 to entry: The decay in force is expressed as a percentage of the original force recorded at the specified
position (see Annex A, Figure A.1).

3.16
force decay due to exercising
loss of force, calculated and expressed as a percentage, as measured and recorded at the same elongation
point on two different cycles when the test specimen is cycled several times between the gauge length
and a specified elongation
Note 1 to entry: See Annex A, Figure A.1.

permanent deformation
ratio of unrecovered extension of the test specimen after cycling (to a specified force or specified
extension) to its initial length
Note 1 to entry: Permanent deformation is expressed as a percentage.

recovered elongation
complement of permanent deformation to 100 %

3.19
elastic recovery
recovered elongation of the total elongation
Note 1 to entry: Elastic recovery is expressed as a percentage.
