Scope

This document specifies methods for the evaluation of some aspects of the behaviour of nonwoven fabrics in the presence of liquids. In particular:
—     the liquid absorbency time;
—     the liquid absorptive capacity;
—     the liquid wicking rate (capillarity).
The different aspects of absorbency can relate to various end uses of the tested products.
The tests do not apply to any fabric containing super absorbent materials.
