ASTM D1388 |
Standard Test Methods for Stiffness of Fabrics |
This test method covers the measurement of stiffness properties of fabrics. Bending length is measured and flexural rigidity is calculated. |
|
ASTM D5732 |
Standard Test Method for Stiffness of Nonwoven Fabrics Using the Cantilever Test |
WITHDRAWN - This test method covers stiffness properties of nonwoven fabrics by employing the principle of cantilever bending of the fabric under its own weight. Bending length is measured and flexural rigidity calculated. This test method applies to most nonwoven fabrics that are treated or untreated, including those heavily sized, coated, or resin-treated. |

BS 3356 |
Method of Determination of Bending Length and Flexural Rigidity of Fabrics |
This British Standard describes a method for determination of the bending length and flexural rigidity of textile fabrics and certain nonwovens by means of a fixed-angle flexometer. The method is not applicable to fabrics that curl or twist badly when cut into small pieces, nor to fabrics that show a noticeable time effect when allowed to bend under their own mass. |
| EDANA: NWSP 090.1.R0 | Stiffness of Nonwoven Fabrics Using the Cantilever Test | This test method covers stiffness properties of nonwoven fabrics by employing the principle of cantilever bending of the fabric under its own weight. Bending length is measured and flexural rigidity is calculated. |

ISO 9073-7 |
Textiles - Test Methods for Nonwovens |
A rectangular strip is supported on a horizontal platform with the long axis of the strip parallel to the long axis of the platform. The strip is advanced in the direction of its length so that an increasing part overhangs the platform and bends down under its own weight. When the edge has reached a plane inclined at an angle of 41,5° the overhanging length will equal twice the bending length. Flexural rigidity is calculated. |
