This standard specifies the method for the determination of thermal resistance and moisture resistance under steady-state conditions. This standard applies to all kinds of textile products and the textile fabrics, films, coatings, foams, leather and composite materials used to make these products. The application of the measurement technique of this standard is affected by the maximum measurement range of thermal resistance and moisture resistance, which depends on the size and structural performance of the instrument used (for example, the measurement range of thermal resistance and moisture resistance of the instrument suitable for this standard is at least 2m2•K/W and 700m2•Pa/W). The test environment used in this standard does not represent specific comfort conditions, nor does it give comfort performance requirements. This standard specifies two types of test instruments, A and B. When measuring thermal resistance and moisture resistance or only one of them, type A instrument (evaporative hot plate method instrument) is preferred, and type B instrument (static plate method instrument) can also be used when only thermal resistance needs to be measured.
