    Textile testing is important for several reasons: 1. It aids in textile production, distribution, and consumption by helping with research, selection of raw materials, process control, process development, and meeting specifications. 2. Textiles can be tested at various stages - fibers, yarns, fabrics, and finished products. Performance properties like physical, mechanical, and chemical properties are often tested. 3. Colorfastness testing ensures textiles retain their original color when exposed to conditions like washing, light, rubbing, and perspiration. It is evaluated using standardized methods and scales to rate color change and staining.

    Importance of testing

    • Testing is a valuable aid for textile production, distribution,


    and consumption.
    1.Research Work: Test of the textiles helps the authority to decide the
    next route.
    2. Selection of Raw Materials: During textiles testing the variation of a
    fibre or fabric i.e. length, color, fineness (in case of textile fibre), threads
    per inch, cover factor (in case of textile fabric), is detected properly. Thus
    proper raw materials are selected properly.
    3. Process Control: Certain standard level should be maintained to
    control increase of waste, rise of cost etc. By textile testing we can easily
    detect the faults of machinery and materials during test of textiles.
    4. Process Development: Research Institute, pilot plants can achieve
    process development through testing or exact investigation into better,
    cheaper and quicker methods.
    5. Search for effective productivity: Continuous test of the textiles results
    a enhanced and efficient output of the production.
    6. Specification Test: To meet up the customer requirement,
    specification is very useful. In this concept, testing plays a vital role.
    Testing of what?

    •Fibres
    · Yarns
    · Fabrics
    · Finished products
    - fashion & everyday clothing
    - protective clothing (fire protection etc)
    - home furnishings (bed-linen, curtains …)
    - industrial (tyres, filters, geotextiles …)
    - etc
    Testing for what?
    “Fitness for purpose”

    This usually means measuring …

    Performance properties
    • Physical/mechani
    • Chemical
    Why test?
    •Quality Control/Consistency
    You can’t control if you can’t measure

    · Research & Development


    Is the new better than the old?

    · Sales & Marketing


    “Our product is 50% stronger than theirs!”

    · Other
    Eg. forensics & crime investigation
    Testing is normally carried out
    according to a
    “STANDARD”

    What does that mean?


    A standard is like a recipe
    … a set of detailed instructions

    •Ensures consistency.
    •Results can be communicated widely.
    •Understood by any trained person.
    What do standards cover?

    · Test methods
    · Specifications of construction
    · Performance criteria

    Who sets them?


    · Buyers (eg. retailers)
    · Manufacturers
    · Government agencies
    · Standards organisations
    BSI, ISO, ASTM, AATCC ...
    Colorfastness
    testing
    Why?

    What?
    What is it ?

    • It is the resistance of a textile material to color change or


    transfer of color onto an adjacent material.

    • It is the property of a dye or print to retain original hue.

    • Low colourfastness is a result of exposure to any bad


    environmental conditions

    • Fading occurs due to degradation of dye molecules.


    Why a necessity?
    • Any fabric needs an improvement in their colorfastness
    properties.
    • Consumer demand for excellent colorfastness properties
    of apparels.
    • Thus this testing is of great concern for apparel grade
    industries.
    • Important for all grade of apparels men, women and
    children
    • Helps manufacturers to find out the lacunas in their
    methods.
    How is it done?
    • Colour fastness test is used to ensure the colour quality for
    example when washed, exposed to light, rubbed etc.
    • In most colour fastness tests the sample material is combined
    with multifiber fabric and the desired test is performed
    (washing, exposure to light, perspiration)
    • Staining of the multifiber fabric and the colour differentiation
    of the sample material is evaluated by using grey scale.
    • These tests are performed based on certain standardized
    methods given by AATCC and ISO .
    • Some buyers do have their own test methods also.
    Colorfastness to crocking
    AATCC Test Method 8
    ISO 105-X12

    • This test determines the transfer of color from a textile surface


    to any adjacent material principally by rubbing.
    • Wet and dry evaluation is typically performed.
    • A specimen of the textile are rubbed with a dry rubbing cloth
    and with a wet rubbing cloth
    • Colour transferred on to the white test cloth is assessed by a
    comparison with the Grey Scale for Staining or the Chromatic
    Transference Scale
    The Crock meter
    Colorfastness to perspiration
    AATCC Test method-15
    ISO 105 E04

    • This test helps in determining the action of all kinds of human


    body perspiration to the colorfastness of a textile material.

    • This test is applicable to all kinds of textile material.

    • Specimens of the textile in contact with adjacent fabrics or


    multifibres are wet out in simulated solutions, drained and
    placed between two plates under a specified mechanical
    pressure in a per-spirometer t elevated temperatures.

    • Later the change in color of each specimen and the staining of


    the adjacent fabrics are assessed.
    The Per-spirometer
    Colorfastness to laundering
    AATCC Test method 61
    ISO 105 C06

    • This method is for determination of colourfastness of textile


    materials irrespective of their composition to the action of
    soap solution at varying temperatures for a specified period.
    • This test method accounts to 5 home launderings.
    • A specimen of textile in contact with pieces of specified
    adjacent fabrics is mechanically agitated in soap solution,
    rinsed and dried
    • The abrasive action is a result of the frictional effects of fabric
    against canister, the low liquor ratio and the impact of the
    steel balls on the fabric.
    The launder-o-meter
    Colorfastness to light
    AATCC Test method 16

    • This test determines the resistance of textile materials to


    mechanical degradation or fading of fabric dyes and/or prints
    due to light which is an important property.
    • Light, particularly in the UV region of the spectrum, can cause
    harm by changing the structure of the dye molecules in a fabric
    which causes fading.
    • Fabrics are exposed either out doors in a standard test frame or
    in a machine that simulates sunlight
    • AATCC Blue Wool Light fastness Standard, one of a group of dyed
    wool fabrics for use in determining the amount of light exposure
    of specimens during light fastness testing.
    • The comparison between exposed portion to the masked control
    or to an unexposed original portion of the specimen is done, as
    specified in a material specification
    Evaluation
    • The result of a colourfastness test is rated by visually
    comparing the difference in colour or the contrast between
    the untreated and treated specimens with the differences
    represented by the Scale
    • The evaluation procedure includes use of grey scales,
    chromatic color transference scale, and AATCC standard blue
    wool for visually assessing the color change or staining.
    • The overall difference, or contrast, between original and
    tested specimens is the basis for the evaluation
    • Staining of adjacent fabric or multifibre fabric is also evaluated
    in a similar manner.
    • The rating is given from 1-5
    Grey scale for staining Grey scale for color change
