This standard is part of a series of methods for determining the abrasion resistance of textiles. Its core principle involves objectively quantifying the abrasion resistance by precisely measuring the mass loss of the fabric after a specified number of friction cycles under defined conditions. The method employs a specialized Martindale abrasion tester as the core detection instrument. This device subjects circular fabric specimens to repeated friction against a specified standard abrasive material under a defined standard pressure, following a complex Lissajous curve trajectory. After the test, a precise analytical balance is used to measure the mass difference of the specimen before and after friction. The resulting mass loss per unit area (or mass loss rate) serves as a key quantitative indicator for evaluating the abrasion durability of different fabrics.
