Scope

GB/T 20392-2023 is the English-translated version of 棉纤维物理性能试验方法 大容量纤维测试仪法.

GB/T 20392-2023 is the Chinese national test method for the physical properties of cotton fibres measured on a high volume instrument. It describes how the instrument tests colour, trash, micronaire, upper half mean length and length uniformity index, breaking tenacity and elongation at break.

It fixes the calibration cottons and calibration tiles, the balance graduation, the standard atmosphere for conditioning and testing, the mass of laboratory samples and specimens, the rounding of results, the precision of the method and the content of the test report.

It applies to fine-staple and long-staple cotton processed by roller or saw gins, and cites GB/T 6097, GB/T 6529 and GB/T 8170. It replaces GB/T 20392-2006, was issued on 27 November 2023 and has applied since 1 June 2024.

Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents" Drafting.

This document replaces GB/T 20392-2006 "HVI Cotton Fiber Physical Properties Test Method". Compared with GB/T 20392-2006, except In addition to structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows:

a) Changed the scope of application (see Chapter 1, Chapter 1 of the 2006 edition);

b) Added calibration level requirements for color standard cotton and color calibration porcelain plates (see 5.2);

c) The requirements for the graduation value of the balance have been changed (see 5.4, 5.4 of the 2006 edition);

d) Added calibration level requirements for micronaire calibration cotton (see 5.5);

e) Added the requirements for the length/strength calibrated cotton breaking ratio strength test distance level (see 5.6);

f) The standard atmosphere for humidity conditioning and testing has been changed (see 6.1, 6.1 of the 2006 edition), and the moisture regain conditions of pre-humidified samples have been changed (see 6.2, 6.2 of the 2006 edition), adds the requirements for sample equilibrium time in the dehumidified state (see 6.3);

g) Changed the quality requirements for laboratory samples (see 7.1, 2006 version of 7.1);

h) The sampling method has been changed (see 7.2, 2006 version of 7.2);

i) The quality requirements for test specimens have been changed (see 7.2, 8.1.2.1, 8.3.2.1, and 8.4.2.1 of the 2006 edition);

j) Changed the instrument warm-up time during color calibration (see 8.1.1.1, 2006 version of 8.1.1.1);

k) Added processing requirements when impurities, average length of the upper half and length uniformity verification are unacceptable (see 8.2.1.5, 8.4.1.6);

l) The requirements for micronaire calibration sample selection have been changed (see 8.3.1.1, 8.3.1.2 of the 2006 version), and the micronaire verification method has been added. method (see 8.3.1.4, 8.3.1.5), and the requirement for the number of micronaire tests (see 8.3.2.5) is added;

m) Changed the rules for numerical rounding (see 9.2, 9.1 of the 2006 version);

n) Added precision requirements for test methods (see Chapter 10);

o) Changed the content of the "Test Report" (see Chapter 11, Chapter 10 of the 2006 edition).

1 Scope

This document describes the large-capacity fiber tester that tests cotton fibers for color, impurities, micronaire, length and length uniformity index, and breakage. Specific strength and elongation at break methods.

This document is suitable for testing the physical properties of fine-staple cotton and long-staple cotton processed by top rollers or sawtooth.

2 Normative reference documents

The contents of the following documents constitute essential provisions of this document through normative references in the text. Among them, the dated quotations For undated referenced documents, only the version corresponding to that date applies to this document; for undated referenced documents, the latest version (including all amendments) applies to this document.

GB/T 6097 Cotton fiber test sampling method

GB/T 6529 Standard atmosphere for humidity conditioning and testing of textiles

GB/T 8170 Numerical rounding rules and expression and determination of limit values

3 Terms and definitions

The following terms and definitions apply to this document.

3.1 Reflectance; Rd

How light or dark a cotton sample reflects light.

3.2 Yellow depth; yellowness

The shades of yellow tint in the cotton sample.

3.3 Trash particle count

The total number of impurity particles on the surface of the cotton sample within the test area.

3.4 Impurity area percentage; trash area percent

The percentage of the coverage area of impurity particles on the surface of the cotton sample within the test area to the test area.

3.5 Micronaire value

A measure of the breathability of a given amount of cotton fiber under specified conditions.

Note 1: The micronaire scale is based on a series of cottons with micronaire values determined by international agreement.

Note 2: The micronaire value is expressed using a subjectively determined scale, the micronaire scale.
