Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has beer International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/lEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. 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. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. IsO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 23733 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles, Subcommittee SC 23, Fibres and yarns. ional Organization for Standardization @ISO2007-Allrights reserved ISO 23733:2007(E) Introduction The variation in linear density of chenille yarns is inherently higher than for more conventional yarns covered by IsO 2060. It is expected, therefore, that sampling plans for chenille yarns will involve greater numbers of several prominent chenille manufacturers, where yarns of multiple fibre types and linear densities were evaluated. Table 1 is provided as a tool for manufacturers of chenille yarns to gauge the quality of their products relative to the industry average. Not for Resale aadizao No reproductic neworkingmitedwith
