Testing the color fastness of textiles to dry and wet rubbing
We provide services for testing the resistance of textile materials to dry and wet friction in accordance with the DSTU ISO 105 series of standards, in particular to: friction (ISO 105-X12), washing (ISO 105-C01, C02, C03, C04, C05, C06, C07, C08, C10), exposure to light (ISO 105-B01, B02, B04), as well as other physical and chemical influences. These tests allow determining the extent to which the dye used in fabric production is capable of remaining on the surface of the material without losing color or transferring to other surfaces under mechanical stress.
Color fastness to dry rubbing determines whether the dye will rub off during dry use. Color fastness to wet rubbing evaluates the behavior of the fabric when in contact with a wet surface and rubbing.
Who will benefit from this service:
- – Distributors who verify that imported products comply with standards;
- – Fabric manufacturers and suppliers;
- – Companies that manufacture clothing, workwear, home textiles, upholstered furniture, etc.;
- – Quality control laboratories.
