Abstract This standard (effective 1 Jan. 1986) establishes a method for determining the mould resistance of synthetic leather for industrial and domestic hand and arm protection. Samples are inoculated with mould spores (9 species are specified) and placed in incubators. Mould growth after 14-28 days is ranked on a 6-ball scale. The method is also used for determining the protection effectiveness of fungicides. Contents: method of sample selection, testing equipment, materials, reagents, preparation for testing and testing, treatment of results, safety requirements. A method of transferring mould from polyvinyl chloride films is appended.
