Designation:D4028/D4028M13Standard Specification forSolar Screening Woven from Vinyl-Coated Fiber Glass Yarn1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4028/D4028M;the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification covers the requirements for vinyl-coated fiber glass solar screening,and should help usersrecognize the characteristics of acceptable vinyl-coated fiberglass solar screening.This specification is limited in applica-tion to vinyl-coated fiber glass solar screening that is producedwith a ribbed pattern woven in the warp direction.Theapplicability of this specification to vinyl-coated fiber glasstype solar screening of a non-rib,a double rib(ribs in bothwarp and filling direction),or a filling rib construction is notknown.1.2 This specification shows the definitions,generalrequirements,and physical requirements for commercial stan-dard vinyl-coated fiber glass solar screening designed andwoven for installation in any dwelling,building,or structurefor the purpose of providing a significant reduction in solarheat gain,while providing outward view and interior light.Solar screening provides a structure that has insect-restrainingcapabilities equivalent to standard insect screening.NOTE1For information on standard insect screening,see Specifica-tion D3656.1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.4 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to thetest method portion,Sections 8 21 of this specification:Thisstandard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is the responsibility of the userof this standard to establish appropriate safety and healthpractices and determine the applicability of regulatory limita-tions prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D76 Specification for Tensile Testing Machines for TextilesD123 Terminology Relating to TextilesD3374 Specification for Vinyl-Coated Glass YarnsD3656 Specification for Insect Screening and Louver ClothWoven fromVinyl-Coated Glass YarnsD3773 Test Methods for Length of Woven FabricD3774 Test Method for Width of Textile FabricD3775 Test Method for Warp(End)and Filling(Pick)Countof Woven FabricsD4909 Test Method for Color Stability of Vinyl-CoatedGlass Textiles to Accelerated Weathering(Withdrawn1996)3D4912 Test Method for Fabric Stability of Vinyl-CoatedGlass Yarn Insect Screening and Louver ClothD4963 Test Method for Ignition Loss of Glass Strands andFabricsD5035 Test Method for Breaking Force and Elongation ofTextile Fabrics(Strip Method)D7018 Terminology Relating to Glass Fiber and Its Products2.2 AATCC Standard:4Evaluating Procedure 1,Grey Scale for Color Change.2.3 ANSI ASHRAE Standard:5Standard 74-1988,Method of Measuring Solar-OpticalProperties of Materials2.4 Federal Test Method Standards:6No.191,Method 5872,Effect of High Temperature on ClothBlocking,Textile Test MethodsNo.191,Method 5903,Flame Resistance of Cloth,Vertical,Textile Test MethodsCCC D-950 Specification,Dyeing and After Treating Pro-cesses for Cotton Cloths1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D13 onTextiles and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D13.18 on Glass Fiber andits Products.Current edition approved Jan.1,2013.Published February 2013.Originallyapproved in 1981.Last previous edition approved in 2007 as D4028 07.DOI:10.1520/D4028_D4028M-13.2For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.3The last approved version of this historical standard is referenced onwww.astm.org.4Available from American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists,P.O.Box 12215,Research Triangle Park,NC 27709.5Available from American Society of Heating,Refrigeration,and Air-Conditioning Engineers,1791 Tullie Circle N.E.,Atlanta,GA 30329.6Available from Standardization Documents Order Desk,Bldg.4 Section D,700Robbins Ave.,Philadelphia,PA 19111-5094,Attn:NPODS.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United States1 2.5 Military Standard:6MIL-STD-105D Sampling Procedures and Tables for In-spection by Attributes3.Terminology3.1 For all terminology relating to D13.18,Glass Fiber andIts Products,refer to Terminology D7018.3.1.1 The following terms are relevant to this standard:acceptable quality level,atmosphere for testing textiles,
