ASTM refers to the American Society for Testing and Materials, which is now known as ASTM International. The ASTM has developed a standard test method for determining the bursting strength of materials called ASTM D3786/D3786M - 13(2019) Standard Test Method for Bursting Strength of Textile Fabrics—Diaphragm Bursting Strength Tester Method. This test method covers the determination of the bursting strength of textile fabrics using a hydraulic diaphragm bursting tester. It is applicable to most textile fabrics, including woven fabrics, nonwoven fabrics, air bag fabrics, blankets, napped fabrics, knitted fabrics, layered fabrics, and pile fabrics.

Fabric burst strength testing

ASTM standard specifies the test procedures for the burst strength of fabrics, including the requirements for preparing samples, installing samples, applying force, and recording data. During the testing process, it is necessary to use a universal testing machine and conduct tests according to the parameters such as testing speed and fixture size stipulated in the standard. This standard applies to various types of fabrics, including knitted fabrics, woven fabrics, and nonwovens.
 
In addition, there are other ASTM standards related to fabric burst strength, such as ASTM D6797 and ASTM D6796, etc. These standards specify the burst strength test methods of different types of fabrics under different conditions, which can be selected according to specific application requirements.
