B (informative) Bibliography

Describes two methods on abrasion resistance of materials: the determination of the abrasion resistance of protective clothing materials; the abrasion pretreatment of these materials where the test samples afterwards are used in evaluation of the remaining protective properties. Coverage includes: apparatus, wrinkles, mounting abradant, and setting up the machine.
