are shown below in Fig 1. Starting with 150mm between clamps, apply 200gf preload on the
specimen to remove any specimen bowing. Do not zero the load cell after preload. Check to
ensure the test direction (warp or weft) is vertical, and parallel with the tensile test axis. Test
shall be conducted at an extension rate of 200 mm/ min. For tested specimen to be considered
valid, tensile rupture location shall happen between scribed gage length lines. Measure the load

specimens of
lengthwise and widthwise specimens shall be considered as the result. The lowest result among three
specimen shall also conform to the requirement.
When the load application rate is different from 200 mm/ min, it shal The be reported.

Strength deterioration after Fade- Ometer test (%) = S0 – S1

Х 100
S0
where: S0 = tensile strength in normal state { N/ 50 mm (kgf/ 50 mm) wide}

S1 = tensile strength after Fade- Ometer test { N/ 50 mm (kgf/ 50 mm) wide}
4) To find the strength deterioration after heat aging, cut three specimens 50 mm long, 250 mm
wide each in both the warp and weft directions. Place a test specimen in a oven at 120 ± 2 ℃
for 200 hr. Then conduct test specified in Clause 4.4.
The strength deterioration after oven aging shall be calculated by the following
formula :
T0 – T1
Strength deterioration after oven aging (%) = Х 100

directions. Scribe gage length marks on each specimen as shown in Fig. 1. Place specimen in the
equipment with distance 150 mm between the clamps. Slowly apply a load of 78.4 N (8 kgf)

of loading. Measurement shall be taken while each specimen is loaded, and not before the load is
removed. Remove the specimen from the clamps, let stand on a flat bench for 10 minutes, and
determine the distance between the marks.
Elongation at normal load (%) = ℓ1 – 100
Elongation set (%) = ℓ2 – 100

4.21.2 Procedure
(1) Code A
- Soil
1) Place the 57 mm diameter soiling area template onto the test specimen, as shown in Figure
12.
2) Spread 2.0 grams of synthetic soil inside the 57 mm diameter opening of the template
using glass stir.
3) Place the aluminum circular disk onto the soiled area.
4) Place the 5 kg weight on the circular disk for 30 seconds.
5) Remove the circular disk, and allow soiling agent to sit on the test specimen for 1 hour
before proceeding to the cleaning procedure.
- Cleaning
1) Remove excess soil with a vacuum cleaner.
2) Apply cleaning agent to half of the exposed soiled area to observe the pre- and post-
cleaning conditions.
3) Allow cleaning agent to remain on test specimen for 3- 5 minutes. Rub with a soft brush
(tooth brush) applying uniform force to remove any stain. The rubbing time should be
limited to approximately one minute at 1- 2 cycles/ second.
4) Wipe immediately ith dry, clean cotton cloth. If the soiling agent is not completely,
repeat the cleaning procedure once more.

(2) Code B~ H
1) Place the test specimen flat (size : 200 x 200mm) on a smooth, horizontal surface
with the outside seating surface facing outwards.
2) Carefully place small drops (approximately 1mL of each soiling agent) on the test
specimen in a minimu of 3 locations that represent all physical and color
characteristics of the fabric. The drops should be at least 3 cm apart. The dropper tip should be
held at a height of approximately 1 cm and an angle of 90° from the
HYUNDAI ㆍ KIA
MOTOR
ENGINEERING
STANDARD
substrate surface while placing drops. Do not touch the substrate with the dropper tip.
3) Observe the drops for 30sec then rub the soil into the fabric using a glass stirring rod with a
rounded tip, drawing 5 overlaid circles with a diameter of approximately 5mm
each. (In case of inte ior fabrics, soiling agent shall be spread s ftly.)
Remove any residue on the surface with a white cloth (ISO105- F02 :Textiles – Tests for color
fastness –Part F02 : Specification for cotton and viscose adjacent fabrics).
4) After the residue is removed, for seat fabrics, the white cotton specified above shall be soaked
with water and slightly squeezed with fingertips to wring- out excess water and then used to
remove the soilNote (14). Only 5 new white cotton pieces can be used (if
needed). When soiling agent H (vegetable oil) is tested, this procedure step can be omitted.
5) After cleaning with up to 5 white cotton pieces and water, the soil agents are
considered remaining on the specimen. Each soil agent shall then be cleaned from the
specimen with the cleaner specified in Table 8. The cleaner shall be sprayed onto the
white cloth specified above (not sprayed directly onto the specimen). Continue until there is
no soil agent color transfer to the white cloth. A clean area of white cloth shall be used at the
start of each specimen and can be changed at any time.
6) Allow the cleaned specimen to sit for 24 hrs at room temperature before evaluation.
Note(14) Use sufficient pressure to contact the soil by pushing it repetitively or rubbing toward
constant direction then turn the direction of the fabrics.
4.21.3 Evaluation
(1) Code A
Allow cleaned area on test specimen to air dry for 24 hours. Determine the
cleanability by comparing the cleaned area to the non- soiled area under the lighting
conditions of ISO 105- A03.
(2) Code B~ H
Rate each specimen for appearance change according to the AATCC test method 130 (Stain
Release Replica). Use Appendix to MS300- 32 as a support of the visual assessment.

4.23 Adhesion
Laminate fabric, polyurethane foam, and clothNote(15) under the same condition as in
commercial products and allow to stand for 24 hr or in the standard ondition specified in
Clause 3.1.
Note(15) In case of sandwich type(e.g. fabric- polyurethane foam- cloth), adhesion strength shall
be determined in each layer.
4.23.1 Delamination Strength

Cut three test specimen 25 mm in width and 150 mm in length. B fore testing, peel

(2) Test Method

Place the test sample(size : 200× 200 mm)flat on a horizontal surface.
Using a dropper or pipette, gently place 3 small drops, app oximately 5 mm (in
diameter) or 0.5 mL of test liquid in three different locations. The drops should be
approximately 4.0 cm apart. The dropper tip should be held vertically at a height of
approximately 0.6cm from the substrate surface while placing drops. Do not touch the
substrate with the dropper tip.
Observe the dro s for 30s from approximately 45°angle. Assess each drop
in accordance with the evaluation table and figure below.
If no penetration or wetting of the substrate at the liquid- substrate interface
and no wicking round the drops occur, place drops of the next higher- graded
test liquid at an adjacent site on the substrate.
Continue this pr cedure until one of test liquids shows obvious wetting or
wicking on the substrate, with at least all 3 test locations graded B or lower.

Grade of substrate is the numerical value of the highest- numbered test liquid which will
not wet the substrate within 30 secs. If grades are A2 B1 out of three drops, place drops
of the next higher- graded test liquid.
