3 Definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following definitions apply.
3.1 thickness of a textile
the vertical distance between two reference plates that apply a specified pressure to the textile
3.2 bulky textiles
when the pressure of the textiles is increased from 0.1 kPa to 0.5 kPa, the textile with the thickness variation (compression ratio) ≥ 20%, e.g., artificial fur, plush, velvet, non-woven flakes, etc.
3.3 raised textiles
the textiles with a layer of dense flock (fur) on the surface, e.g., gigging, galling, cutting, flocking, sanding textiles, etc.
3.4 lofty textiles
The textiles with loose and soft structure, e.g., pile loops, loose structures, woollen knitwear, etc.
