Nonwovens — Test methods — Part 3: Determination of tensile strength and elongation at break using the strip method
This document specifies a test method for the determination of the breaking force and elongation of nonwovens using a strip method in conditioned or wet state. This test method describes two procedures, Option A (width of test specimen: 25 mm) and Option B (width of test specimen: 50 mm).
This document specifies methods using constant rate of specimen extension (CRE) tensile testers. Constant rate of loading (CRL) instruments is covered, for information, in ISO 2062:2009, Annex A, in recognition of the fact that these instruments are still in use and can be used by agreement.
