ASTM F1551-09Standard Test Methods for Comprehensive Characterization of Synthetic Turf Playing Surfaces and Materials
References a wide range of methods for tensile strength, peel, pull-out, abrasion resistance and other physical properties, as suitable for synthtic playing surfaces.
These test methods constitute a standard for obtaining data in research and development, quality control, acceptance and rejection under specifications, and for special purposes.
The data obtained from use of these test methods are applicable to the system and its components under conditions of the particular test procedures and are not necessarily the same as the data that might be obtained in other environments or use conditions.
The selection of test methods or tests should be limited to those appropriate to the system or material(s) being evaluated.
