5.2.4 If the gloves are made of elastic material or an elastic wrist gloves, measure the glove length should be no elongation of the sample.
Determination of 5.3 flexibility
5.3.1 the number and condition of the specimen
Sample of four pairs of new gloves, without any softening of processing (such as using wooden club pat or squeeze in the wheel).
5.3.2 Test Equipment
Five grinding test of the stainless steel rods, each length of 40 mm, diameter of 5.0 mm, 6.5 mm, 8.0 mm, 9.5 mm, 11.0 mm.
5.3.3 Test Method
The test stick on a flat surface, a trained testers put on the gloves with the index finger and thumb folders pick up the test bar. The test should pick up test wand three times in 30 s continuous.
5.3.4 The test results
5.3.3 the provisions of test methods that can be picked up the smallest diameter of the test rods, is the test results.
5.4 into the water vapor test methods
5.4.1 apply to Fan Tian
This method is suitable for all leather gloves.
5.4.2 Principles of
Leather specimen was fixed in the movement in a certain temperature and humidity conditions, the test bottle, the test bottle equipped with a solid desiccant, the movement of the test bottle, water vapor through the leather specimen absorbed by the solid desiccant within the specified time on the test The bottles weigh, you can determine the weight of water vapor through the leather this time desiccant absorption.
5.4.3 Instrument and materials
The equipment consists of the following components:
a) the test bottle roughly the shape shown in Figure 2. Equipped with a threaded lid, the lid has a diameter of 30 mm hole, the hole is equal to the bottleneck hole size. Bottle flat and bottlenecks wall vertical.









In millimeters



Figure 2 of the water vapor permeability testing bottles and test bottle bracket



  



b) Testing bottle bracket is driven by the motor rotation speed of (75 ± 5) r / min. Test bottles are placed in this round bracket, parallel to the axis of the test bottles and circular axis, two-axis distance of 6.7 mm (see Figure 2).
c) The fan on the test bottle, consisting of three mutually 120 ° angle of the blade. Blades flat and round parallel to the axis of the fan size of 75 mm/90 mm. Movement, the fan away from the bottleneck distance should be no less than 15 mm. The fan speed (400 ± 100) r / min. Equipment used in ambient temperature (20 ± 2) ℃, relative humidity (65 ± 2)%.
d) just drying the silica gel should be dried in the oven (125 ± 5) ° C for at least 16 h, then cool for at least 6 h in a sealed container. The diameter of the silica particles should be greater than 2 mm.
The silica gel should be dried before the sieve once to remove fine particles and dust. The oven should not be sealed. Oven inside and outside air for continuous circulation. Drying silicone higher temperature than the sample of leather, should not be used often.
e) The balance accurate to 0.001g. Measure the bottleneck inside diameter with a vernier caliper reading to 0.1 mm.
5.4.4 sample preparation
Cut the side length of 50 mm square specimens from the three gloves ready to test. Specimen should be smooth and without cracks.
Unless there is other method you specify otherwise, as follows gently polishing grain surface. Specimen grain face up on the table. Take a numbers 180 emery paper on the specimen, and glide pressure of about 2 N evenly in all directions 10. A diameter equal to the bottleneck outside diameter circular sample (approximately 34 mm) cut from the polished leather specimen.
5.4.5 Test Method
In order to meet the sample conditions, the test bottle into a bottle of just drying the silica gel. Samples facing the inner fixed in the bottle. The bottle is fixed on the machine, start the motor.
Measuring the internal diameter of the second bottle bottleneck with a vernier caliper in two perpendicular directions, and marked the average diameter d, is accurate to 0.1 mm.
If necessary, in the seams of the sample and the bottle coated with beeswax.
When the machine rotation for 16 h, shutdown, remove the first test bottle. The other half just dry silica gel (59.0 g ± 0.5 g) of loading only the second test bottle. At the same time remove the specimen from the first in a bottle, mounted to the second bottle, grain facing clamping (see Figure 2).
Time as possible without delay, quickly with silicone specimen bottles weigh and record the weighing time. Bottle into a fixed position on the machine, start the motor.
Motor run not less than seven hours, not more than 16 h, turn off the motor, remove the bottle and weighed. Record the weighing time.
Note 1: For the most lightweight leather, there is no need in the seams of the sample and the bottle sealed with beeswax. When the cover is screwed tightly. The sample was clamped, but the leather thickness of more than 3 mm usually too rigid application of beeswax seal. In addition, low water vapor permeability of lightweight leather or protruding grain should be sealed. Because they can not determine alone the jig will be able to completely prevent the leakage of the sample side seam. For this reason, if a seal to be tested samples of the P value is less than 5 mg / (cm2 h) The application of beeswax to seal the edge of the re-test, so the results obtained as a sample of the measured results. Even for particularly stiff or do not penetrate the leather, the seams of the sample and a bottle sealed with beeswax is also unnecessary, because the preliminary step for the bottle just to make the sample can be in the vapor flow maintain a stable equilibrium state.
Note 2: If you need to use beeswax to seal a second bottle of the bottle, the bottle should be placed before the silica gel and clamping leather in an oven heated to 50'C.
5.4.6 the results of calculations
Permeability to water vapor ratio of weight gain and the time interval P dollars, the value is expressed in milligrams per square centimeter hours mg / (cm <2 • h), the calculation according to equation (1):






Where:


time interval t ------ between the two weighing units of points (min);



m ------ twice weighing the increment, in units of milligrams (mg);



d ------ bottle diameter, in millimeters (mm).



The calculation results to one decimal place.



The water vapor permeability of gloves should be the average of three results from the three samples measured.



5.5 absorbing water vapor permeability test methods
5.5.1 The sample
Circular specimen of a diameter of 85 mm were cut from three gloves, specimen should be flat, no stitches or material defects.
The sample should be placed for 24 h in the temperature (20 ± 2) ° C, relative humidity (65 ± 5)% of the environment.
5.5.2 equipment
Test equipment for the absorbent vapor testing panel consisting of a cover and base, the opening diameter of 56 mm deep (30 ± 1) mm (Figure 3).

Rubber or metal seals to help clamp the specimen should be placed between the cover and base.
5.5.3 Test Method
5.5.3.1 test environment humidity (20 ± 2) ° C, relative humidity (65 ± 5)%.
5.5.3.2 first right after the pretreatment of the sample weighing, then the sample on the base of the test equipment, under the cover with 50 cm of water. Note that the gloves should be facing down the inner surface of placed. Pad a good ring covered with top cover, and gently tighten the mounting bolts.
5.5.3.3 8 hours, remove the top cover, and quickly removed the samples were weighed.
5.5.3.4 test results
Absorbing water vapor to increase the ratio of surface area of ​​quality and test total, the values ​​expressed in milligrams per square centimeter (mg/cm2), the calculation results to one decimal place.
