1.1This standard is the compilation of all terminology developed by Committee D13 on Textiles.

1.1.1This terminology, consists mostly of definitions, which are specific to the textile industry. Meanings of the same terms used outside the textile industry can be found in other compilations or in dictionaries of general usage.

1.1.2The specific D13 subcommittee (SC) which has jurisdictional responsibility for every item is the first attribution noted after the definition. The SC terminology standard in which all the terms and definitions appear is listed by number after the jurisdiction for the term. The wording of an entry cannot be changed without the approval of the subcommittee which has jurisdiction. Users of this compilation should also review the SC terminology standard listed for more details or interpretations of these terms and their use by the SC having jurisdiction.

1.2In addition to being a specialized dictionary, Terminology D123 is also a tool for managing the committee's terminology. This includes finding, eliminating, and preventing redundancies, that is, where two or more terms relating the same concept are defined in different words. Redundancies can also occur when one definition is used for two or more terms.

1.3While the review for clarity and form are the responsibility of the terminology subcommittee, the concept of managing terminology is the broad responsibility of every writer of standards, specifically the task group leader and subcommittee chairman.

1.4Subsequent to a listing of specific subcommittee compilations, this standard is comprised of the following sections that are listed in the order in which they appear.

1.4.1Alphabetical listing of terms with definitions followed by SC attribution in brackets and SC terminology standard.

1.4.2Annex A1 Terms Relating to the Hand of Fabrics.

1.4.3Annex A2 Industry Accepted Synonyms.

1.4.4Annex A3 Terminology Taken From D13 Standards That Have Been Withdrawn.

1.4.5Annex A4 Terminology Relating to Leather.

1.4.6Annex A5 Terminology Revision Procedures.

1.4.7Appendix X1 Other Sources of Textile Terminology.

1.5This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
