This document defines the principal terms used to describe the various forms into which textile fibres can be assembled, up to and including cabled yarns. It contains only terms of general application. Terms and definitions which are specific to particular fibres (such as hemp, silk, textile glass fibre, metal fibre, carbon fibre, etc.) are excluded. A morphological scheme as shown in REF Annex_sec_A \r \h Annex A 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000C00000041006E006E00650078005F007300650063005F0041000000 is included which illustrates the relationship among various terms from a production point of view. This document does not include terms which describe the manufacturing or processing methods, or terms used to quantify fibre and yarn properties.

This document specifies a method for the evaluation of a substrate's resistance to absorption of a selected series of liquid hydrocarbons of different surface tensions.
This document provides guidance to oil stain resistance. It can provide a rough index of oil stain resistance as, generally, the higher the oil repellency grade, the better resistance to staining by oily materials, especially liquid oil substances. This is particularly true when comparing various finishes for a given substrate. This document can also be used to determine if washing and/or drycleaning treatments have any adverse effect on the oil repellency characteristics of a substrate.
NOTE 1        Washing and drycleaning treatment procedures are described in ISO 6330 and ISO 3175 (all parts), respectively.
This document is not intended to give an absolute measure of the resistance of the substrate to staining by all oily materials. Other factors, such as composition and viscosity of the oily substances, substrate construction, fibre type, dyes and other finishing agents, also influence stain resistance. This document is not intended to estimate the resistance to penetration of the substrate by oil-based chemicals.
NOTE 2        For the evaluation of the resistance to penetration of the substrate by oil-based chemicals, see ISO 6530.

This document specifies requirements and recommendations to laboratories that perform extraction of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) quality deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from cottonseed, cotton leaf and raw material derived therefrom, that is sufficient for the purpose of PCR analysis. This document is applicable to: a) identifying cotton raw material from which PCR quality DNA can be extracted; b) specifying a method for effective DNA extraction from cotton and cotton-derived raw materials; c) specifying the cotton-specific marker(s) to be used as controls for PCR amplification of DNA. A PCR result obtained from analysis of cottonseed, cotton leaf and to some extant raw materials derived therefrom can only indicate that it is not derived from pure genetically modified organism (GMO)-derived cotton. Admixtures of GMO-derived cotton cannot be detected for cotton fibre and cotton fibre-derived materials. This document does not apply to bulk sampling of the seed, bale or processed fabric and yarn. A recommended sampling method is given in ISO 6497. General guidance for the sampling of bulk materials or for cotton-based products is available in standards such as ASTM D1441-12 and CEN/TS 15568.

This document specifies a test method, including the degradation of certain side-chain fluorinated polymers during the extraction with simultaneous alkaline hydrolysis, and using liquid chromatography (LC) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) for identification and quantification of certain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The document is applicable to all materials of textile products.
Table 2 indicates a list of target PFAS which can be analysed with this document. PFAS of Table 2 marked with the footnote e) and footnote f) undergo alkaline hydrolysis and only their per- or polyfluorinated degradation products such as PFOA or n:2 fluorotelomer alcohols (n:2 FTOHs, n = 4, 6, 8, 10) can be determined.
Through the methods outlined in the informative Annex E and Annex F, free n:2 FTOHs, PFOA and non-polymeric PFAS of Table 2 marked with the footnote e) and footnote f), that are not stable to alkaline hydrolysis, can be identified and quantified.
Certain side-chain fluorinated polymers release n:2 FTOHs (n = 4, 6, 8, 10) under the described extraction conditions. Since these side-chain fluorinated polymers can be PFOA or C9-C14 PFCA-related substances restricted by the EU-POPs [1] or EU-REACH [2] regulations, the amounts of released n:2 FTOHs can be used to indirectly assess whether the concentration of the aforementioned side-chain fluorinated polymers exceed limits for PFOA or C9-C14 PFCA-related substances.
This document is also applicable to the determination of further PFAS, provided that the method is validated with the additional substances and that these PFAS are stable to alkaline hydrolysis and dehydrofluorination.

This document specifies a method to determine the friction characteristics of geosynthetics (geotextiles and geotextile-related products, geosynthetic barriers) in contact with soils or another geosynthetic, at low normal stress, using an inclining plane apparatus.
This test method is primarily intended as a performance test to be used with site specific soils but is also used as an index test with standard sand. It is also possible to measure the displacement of the interface over time (creep phenomenon) without necessarily reaching the slippage failure.
Test data obtained for geogrids tested with a rigid support are not necessarily realistic as the results depend on the friction support.

This document provides a summary of general guidance for the design of geosynthetics to fulfil the function of stabilization of granular layers in contact with natural soils, fills, asphalt or other materials. The concepts of the summarised guidance are based on installed materials, the installation process and on either the strength or deformation behaviour, or both, of geosynthetics. This document provides general considerations to support the design of unbound layers of paved and unpaved roads, working platforms and foundations utilizing the stabilization function of geosynthetics. This is typically for the serviceability limit state (SLS).
