variety; take one sample from each variety according to different colours; the size and
quantity of sample shall conform to the test requirements.
6.2 Place the extracted sample in seal without any treatment.
6.3 Single sample evaluation. evaluate the sample according to the product class
and by reference to the requirements of Chapter 4. If all test results conform to the
corresponding requirements of the class (for products with two kinds or more
components, each one shall conform to the corresponding requirements of its class),
the sample meets the standard; otherwise, the sample is not conforming. For the
small components of weight not exceeding 1% of the total weight of textile product for
children, items in 4.2 are not examined.
6.4 Batch sample evaluation. if all the extracted samples are qualified, this batch of
products is judged as conforming to this Standard. If unqualified sample exists, the
products of this class or colour represented by this sample are judged as unqualified.
phenomena for the measured components like obvious deformation and
fragmentation shall be avoided.
A.4.1.3 Start the stretching tester, stretch the sample slowly to the fixed load at a
certain speed, and keep at the fixed load for 10s. The stretching resistance of the
attached components is unqualified if the following conditions appear.
