Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.

International Standard ISO 9073‑7 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles.

ISO 9073 consists of the following parts, under the general title Textiles — Test methods for nonwovens:

— Part 1: Determination of mass per unit area;
— Part 2: Determination of thickness;
— Part 3: Determination of tensile strength and elongation;
— Part 4: Determination of tear resistance;
— Part 7: Determination of bending length;
— Part 8: Determination of liquid strike-through time (simulated urine);
— Part 9: Determination of drape coefficient.

Annex A of this part of ISO 9073 is for information only.
