AND the wool standard abradant; and wool standard abradant shall be adopted
for decorative fabric.
8. Sample quantity is change from 4 sets to 3 sets of specimens.
9. As for loading, single mass loading is changed to 2 kinds of mass loadings that
are chosen according to test fabric application.
10. Provision of conducting grade-assessment after 1000 times of abrasion is
deleted; test procedure of adopting stages to conduct the abrasion and
grade-assessment is specified;

Textiles - Determination of fabric propensity to surface
fuzzing and to pilling –
Part 2. Modified Martindale method
1 Scope
This Part of GB/T 4802 specifies a method for determination of the resistance to
pilling and surface change of textile fabrics using a modified Martindale method.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain the provisions which, through reference in
this text, constitute the provisions of this Part of GB/T 4802. For dated references, the
subsequent amendments or revisions of these publications do not apply. However,
parties who enter into an agreement based on this Part of GB/T 4802 are encouraged
to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative
documents indicated below. For undated references, the latest edition of the
normative document referred to applies.
GB/T 6529 Textiles - Standard atmospheres for conditioning and testing (GB/T
6.529-2008, ISO 139.2005, MOD)
GB/T 21196.1 Textiles - Determination of the abrasion resistance of fabrics by the
Martindale method - Part 1. Martindale abrasion testing apparatus (ISO 12947-1.1998,
MOD)
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this Part of GB/T 4802, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1 fuzzing
Roughing up of the surface fibers and/or teasing out of the fibers from the fabric,
producing a visible surface change.
NOTE. This change can occur during washing, dry cleaning and/or wearing.
3.2 pills
Entangling of fibers into balls (pills) which stand proud of the fabric and are of such
density that light will not penetrate and will cast a shadow.
NOTE. This change can occur during washing, dry cleaning and/or wearing.
3.3 pilling
Generation of pills over the surface of the fabric.
3.4 pilling rub
Number of revolutions of the two outer drives of the modified Martindale abrasion
machine.
3.5 pilling cycle
Completion of the translational movements tracing a Lissajous figure comprising 16
rubs, i.e. 16 revolutions of the two outer drives and 15 revolutions of the inner drive of
the Martindale abrasion tester.
4 Principle
A circular test specimen is passed over a friction surface comprising the same fabric
or, when relevant, a wool abradant fabric, at a defined force in the form of a Lissajous
figure, with the test specimen able to rotate easily around an axis through its centre,
perpendicular to the plane of the test specimen. Fuzzing and pilling are assessed
visually after defined stages of rub testing.
5 Apparatus
5.1 Martindale abrasion testing machine
It is described in GB/T 21196.1, modified in accordance with 5.2.
The test apparatus consists of a base plate carrying the pilling tables and drive
mechanism. The drive mechanism consists of two outer drives and an inner drive
which cause the specimen holder guide plate to trace a Lissajous figure.
The specimen holder guide plate is moved horizontally by the drive mechanism in
such a way that every point of the guide plate describes the same Lissajous figure.
The Lissajous movement changes from a circle to gradually narrowing ellipses, until it
becomes a straight line, from which progressively widening ellipses develop in a
diagonally opposite direction before the pattern is repeated.
The specimen holder guide plate is fitted with bearing housings and low friction
7 Conditioning and testing atmosphere
The standard temperate atmosphere for conditioning and testing textiles as defined in
GB/T 6529 shall be used.
8 Preparation of test specimens
8.1 Pre-treatment
Unless otherwise agreed, launder or dry clean the sample using a method agreed
upon by the interested parties.
NOTE. The procedures described in GB/T 8629 or GB/T 19981.1 or GB/T 19981.2 may be suitable.
8.2 Sampling
NOTE. Test specimens should be randomly placed with none of the test specimens having common warp or weft
threads.
The test specimen for the specimen holder is a disc of ( 50140 ) mm diameter. The test
specimen for the pilling table can optionally be ( 50140 ) mm in diameter or (150 ± 2)
mm in both the length and width.
Throughout sampling and specimen preparation particular care shall be taken that
during handling the absolute minimum of tension is applied to avoid any abnormal
elongation of the textile fabric.
8.3 Number of test specimens
At least three sets of specimens are required where one complete set comprises one
test specimen for the specimen holder and one for the pilling table. Where the wool
abradant fabric is used on the pilling table, at least three specimens of t...
