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.
NOTE 1 The use of this method for nonwovens should be agreed between the interested parties.
NOTE 2 The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
