Factors in the fabric water pressure test

If you want to know what is the influence factor of fabric hydrostatic test, you need to know what is hydrostatic head tester, and its working principle, so as to better understand the whole test, so as to better analyze its influence factor.


1. What is the AATCC 127 Hydrostatic pressure Tester


hydrostatic head testing machine(also called impermeability test) is one of the important indicators of waterproof and moisture-permeable fabrics. Hydrostatic pressure refers to the resistance encountered when water passes through the fabric. Under standard atmospheric pressure conditions, the fabric is subjected to continuously rising water pressure until water drops leak out from the back of the fabric. At this time, the measured water pressure is the hydrostatic pressure. The greater the hydrostatic pressure that the fabric can withstand, the better the water resistance or leakage resistance.


2. The principle of hydrostatic test of fabric:


Fabric hydrostatic head pressure tester through three test methods: dynamic test, static test and program, the test sample is fixed on the test area specified by the standard. The air pressure control puts the air pressure of 0-5bar into a built-in water tank filled with distilled water. A test head is connected to the water tank. After the test starts, the test pressure starts to be automatically controlled.


3. The influencing factors in the fabric water pressure test:


(1) the size of the aperture of the coating film. The larger the pore diameter of the membrane, the worse the hydrostatic pressure resistance of the coated fabric.


(2) The size of contact Angle 0. When 0 > 90. , the fabric is water-repellent, and the water pressure resistance of the fabric increases with the increase of 0.


(3) tightness of fabric yarn. The gap between yarns will directly affect the water pressure resistance. The closer the general fabric structure, the better its water seepage resistance.


(4) thickness of fabric. The thicker the fabric, the greater the wet resistance, the greater the water pressure value.


(5) The thickness of yarn. For tight fabrics with good moisture absorption, yarn radius is reduced due to capillary effect. It can improve the impermeability of fabric.


(6) Coating thickness. The coating is too thin, the coating agent is not easy to continuously film on the surface, and the water pressure resistance of the coating fabric is reduced; The coating is thick and the water pressure resistance of the fabric is improved.


(7) the performance of warp and weft yarns. Under the action of water pressure, warp and weft yarns with good elasticity are easy to stretch, which leads to the formation of gaps between adjacent warp and weft yarns, and water droplets are easy to penetrate through, which reduces the water pressure resistance of the fabric.


(8) Coating quality. The whole cloth is required to be uniform and has a certain fastness. The better the coating quality, the better the seepage resistance.


(9) elasticity of fabric. Elastic fabric, water resistance also has a certain impact


(10) The location of the sample and the flatness of the sample also affect the data in the test process.

How to Hang a Suspended Ceiling From Steel Beams

The suspended ceiling hangs under the roof or floor structure above, hiding ugly mechanical and electrical equipment from the view, while also allowing you to easily reach these equipment as needed.While wooden frames usually support such ceilings, in rooms where metal frames are used instead of traditional wood, you can also hang ceilings from steel beams.Hanging the ceiling from the beam requires you to use a special clip to connect the support line to the beam without compromising its structural integrity.Measure 4 inch down from the bottom of the lowest beam, pipe or pipe in the ceiling space.If you plan to use panel fluorescent lamps in your ceiling, add an additional 2 inch to this measurement.Make a mark on the wall indicating the location of the facade.Set up a laser level to extend the mark you made on the wall to the entire wall length.Draw a chalk line on the wall to mark the position.Mark all four walls repeatedly with chalk lines indicating the height of the ceiling.Instal

Importance of Calibration Service, Material Testing

When it comes to Calibration services, genuine service providers offer full recall system and data sheets for all items calibrated. Service needs to be instrument specific. With the advent of technology, Calibration service has seen a tremendous change and has gone through various phases to get the top quality. Calibration is a great deal for industrial purpose. It makes sure that products are manufactured as per specification. It also checks the competence level of technically valid results. The calibrated measuring instrument helps in checking the quality and valuation of the product. In cases of electronic equipment, it is essential to calibrate instruments to keep a check on quality and performance. Calibration facilitates in improving measurement abilities. Calibration service can be manual or automated.  textile testing equipment manufacturers Material Testing machines are available for a wide variety of industries including materials testers for plastics, textiles, adhesives, fi

Level Measurement Solutions

Makeup water treatment is an important component of steam generation. It is the means to resupply the system with water suitable for boiler and other operations that, was lost in the cycle.The steam generation cycle, level control for the water treatment process is not necessarily about efficiency, but rather, accuracy, reliability and safety, while providing proper inventory management to ensure chemical and makeup water supply meets demand. The focus is on the chemical component of the makeup water treatment since it presents difficulties for level technologies that may work perfectly on non-chemical applications related to the water treatment process or those with limited variations in the contents of the vessel's vapor space. Although important measurements such as ammonia, acid, caustic and other chemical storage tanks are not difficult level applications by any stretch, small nuances in how the vessels are monitored relative to level technology can have a dramatic effect on t
