Overview

EN ISO 9073-16:2008 (ISO 9073-16:2007) specifies a standardized hydrostatic pressure test for nonwoven fabrics to determine resistance to penetration by water (hydrostatic pressure). The method measures the hydrostatic head at which water first penetrates a nonwoven specimen and is intended for any nonwoven used as a fluid barrier. This EN/ISO standard is published by CEN/ISO and adopted for consistent quality assessment, product specification and comparison.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Principle: A specimen seals a circular test-head reservoir and water pressure is increased at a constant rate until leakage (three separate drops at different locations) is observed. The pressure at first penetration is recorded.
  • Apparatus essentials: levelling mechanism, leak-proof clamping, temperature control for the water contacting the specimen, and a means to control pressure increase rate. Typical test-head area is 100 ± 1 cm².
  • Test conditions: standard water temperature (23 ± 2) °C (other temperatures may be agreed), and controlled pressure rise rates of (10 ± 0.5) cm H2O/min or (60 ± 3) cm H2O/min.
  • Specimens & sampling: ordinarily five specimens per sample, prepared and taken in accordance with ISO 3951-5 and conditioned per ISO 139 unless otherwise agreed.
  • Water quality & calibration: use grade 3 water per ISO 3696. Calibration and metrological confirmation follow ISO 10012 and manufacturer instructions, including verification across the anticipated pressure range.
  • Reporting & results: report individual specimen results (cm or mbar), average, standard deviation and coefficient of variation. Reporting precision guidance: up to 100 hPa - 0.5 hPa (0.5 cm H2O); over 100 hPa - 1.0 hPa (1.0 cm H2O). Include test method reference, material designation, pressure application side, water temperature, and pressure rise rate.

Applications and users

  • Quality control and specification testing for nonwovens used in:
    • Medical and hygiene products (barrier layers)
    • Personal protective equipment (PPE)
    • Filtration media and geotextiles
    • Automotive and building materials where fluid resistance is critical
  • Typical users: textile test laboratories, manufacturers, R&D teams, compliance officers and procurement specialists who need reproducible hydrostatic water penetration data for product development, acceptance testing and regulatory compliance.

Related standards

  • ISO 139 - Standard atmospheres for conditioning and testing
  • ISO 3696 - Water for analytical laboratory use
  • ISO 3951-5 - Sampling procedures for inspection by variables
  • ISO 10012 - Measurement management systems
  • Other parts of ISO 9073 (e.g., Parts 1–18) cover complementary nonwoven test methods

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 9073-16 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles.
ISO 9073 consists of the following parts, under the general title Textiles — Test methods for nonwovens:
⎯ Part 1: Determination of mass per unit area
⎯ Part 2: Determination of thickness
⎯ Part 3: Determination of tensile strength and elongation
