1 Scope
This method of test specifies a test method for determining the thermal resistance of textile articles which may be filled, e.g. padded coats and jackets, child sleep bags, cot duvets , etc., or textiles articles with a thermal resistance of up to 0,5 m 2 K/W (5,0 tog) and/or which do not have uniform thickness.
The test method is applicable to products with a thermal resistance within the range 0,025 m 2 K/W (0,25 tog) to approximately 0,5 m 2 K/W (5,0 tog) but is limited only by the ability of the test apparatus to cope with
the thickness of the test sample.
