ISO PAS 17984:2001 pdf download Machine-made textile floor coverings – Determination of dimensional changes after exposure to heat and/or water
Scope
This Publiclv Available Specification specifies procedures for the determination of both planar and out-of-planedimensional changes that take place when machine-made textile floor coverings are subjected to heat, water orvaried heat and water conditions.
The following methods are applicable to all machine-made textile floor coverings including those produced in tileform.
Method 1: Determination of dimensional changes after exposure to heat
Method 2: Determination of dimensional changes after immersion in water.
Method 3: Determination of dimensional changes due to the effects of varied heat and water conditions.
Method 4: Dimensional changes out of the plane.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this Publicly Available Specification, the terms and definitions given in ISO 2424 apply
4 Principle
Comparison is made between either planar or out-of-plane dimensions of a test specimen after conditioning in thestandard atmosphere for testing textiles and after being subjected to either heat, water or specified varied heat andwater conditions.
Apparatus
5.1 Methods 1, 2 and 3
Instrument capable of measuring length to the nearest 0,1 mm, e.g. an optical bench or mechanical5.1,1device with gauge.
5.1.2Plate glass sheet, marginally smaller than the test specimen, or other means of keeping the specimen flatwhile measurements are made, This will not be required if the instrument in 5.1.1 incorporates such a glass or
metal plate.Steel pins or other appropriate means of indicating the reference points on the test specimen5.1.3if necessary.
NOTEA suitable piece of equipment incorporating 5.1.1, 5. 1.2 and 5.1.3 is given in annex A.
5.2Methods 1 and 3
5.2.1 ! Ventilated drying oven, capable of being controlled at 60 °C 2 C, with perforated and lacqueredshelves that can be placed in the oven.
5.2.2 Desiccator or similar apparatus, for maintaining specimens in a dry condition.
5.3Methods 2 and 3
5.3.1 Container, for holding water at 20 C t 2 C, with dimensions at least 20 mm greater than the testspecimen and deep enough to accommodate the submerged test specimen.
5.3.2Rigid perforated tray, of a sufficient size to carry the test specimen
Efficient wetting agent, e.g., sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate, or dodecylbenzene sodium sulfonate.5.3.3
5.3.4Means of ensuring a forced draught of ambient air, if required.
5.4 Method 4 (if used in conjunction with methods 1, 2 or 3)
5.4.1Gauge or instrument, capable of measuring in the vertical dimension, to an accuracy of 0,5 mm.
Sampling and selection of test specimens6
6.1 Sampling
Select the specimens in accordance with ISO 1957
6.2 Number and dimensions of test specimens
Take at least three test specimens each measuring not less than 450 mm x 450 mm, noting the direction ofmanufacture.
