ISO 5085-1 Textiles - Determination of Thermal Resistance - Part 1: Low Thermal Resistance

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ISO 5085-1 standard. The method is suitable for materials up to 20 mm thick (over this thickness edge losses become noticeable).

ISO 5085-1 Textiles - Determination of Thermal Resistance - Part 1: Low Thermal Resistance

Recommendations are given on suitable components for the construction of the apparatus, ways to determine thermal conductivity are explained, and numerical values ​​are given for some textile materials.

Measurement of thermal resistance of textiles, values ​​for clothing and upholstery fabrics in thermal environments, heat losses from rooms, etc. to be included in the calculations. The thermal resistances of the fabric layers are additive, so the values ​​for all garment groups can be calculated as follows.

The test method can be easily adapted to allow air spaces to be provided between the fabric layers.

It has been argued that a simple thickness measurement provides an adequate measure of thermal insulation, for example of blankets. However, this is acceptable only if a common value for thermal insulation per unit thickness is accepted.

EUROLAB assists manufacturers with ISO 5085-1 test compliance. Our test experts, with their professional working mission and principles, provide you, our manufacturers and suppliers, the best service and controlled testing process in our laboratories. Thanks to these services, businesses receive more effective, high-performance and quality testing services and provide safe, fast and uninterrupted service to their customers.
