Textiles — Test methods for nonwovens — Part 18: Determination of breaking strength and elongation of nonwoven materials using the grab tensile test ISO 9073-18:2007

Publication date:   Apr 2, 2007

Scope

ISO 9073-18:2007 specifies a grab tensile test procedure for determining the breaking strength and elongation of most nonwoven materials. It includes instructions for the testing of wet specimens.
This grab tensile test procedure is applicable for most nonwovens, but is not recommended for nonwovens which have a high percentage of stretch.
