(What is a Work Item? / How to Input to a Work Item)

Work Item: ASTM WK27767 - Revision of D1776 - 08e1 Standard Practice for Conditioning and Testing Textiles


Active Standard: D1776 - 08e1

Developed by Subcommittee: D13.51 | Committee D13 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

A request to add ultra high modulus (UHMW)-polyethylene to Table 1 of D1776 was approved at the San Antonio meeting in January 2010. Table 1 was reorganized to show a clear distinction between general standard atmospheres and those specific to other textiles. Information has been added relating to harmonization with ISO 130 Standard Atmospheres for Conditioning pertinent to the uncertainty of measurement of temperature and relative humidity controllers and recorders as related to reasonable laboratory tolerances. A bibliography supplied by National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) has been added in support of tolerances that incorporate of uncertainty of measurement related to risk management and laboratory certification.
