Colour Fastness to dyeing textiles

Color fastness is that the ability to keep original dye color under the influence of other kinds of external factors in the use processes of dyeing textiles. Or we can define color fastness like this: Color fastness refers to the resistance of color to fade or bleed of a dyed or printed textile materials to various types of influences e.g. water, light, rubbing, washing, perspiration etc. It is an important indicator to measure the quality of dyeing products.


Due to the use of chemicals in the late processes of dyeing and finishing, like acid, alkali, oxidants, reductants, etc., and when using in washing, sunlight, rubbing, sweat, high temperature and so on, dyeing textiles may fade or discolor. Therefore, dye color fastness is diverse, including washing fastness, light fastness, rubbing fastness, perspiration fastness, chlorine fastness, ironing fastness, etc.

The color fastness requirement of textiles is different because of their different use and process. For example, the curtain which is less washed requires low colorfastness, but due to exposure to the sun for a long time, it needs high lightfastness. Summer clothing fabrics should have higher light fastness, washing fastness and perspiration fastness for the reason that they always expose to sun and human body always sweat.

How To Process The Elmendorf Tear Strength Test

The Elmendorf tear tester has been developed specially for the paper industry and is outstanding for simplicity of operation and high measurement accuracy. The exchangeable pendulum is equipped with a pneumatic sample clamp. The initiation and return of the pendulum, as well as sample cutting is completely automatic. The device is operated via an integrated touch screen, where the test method can be selected, specific settings can be adjusted, and, after the measurement, results and statistics can be  displayed.Each pendulum is supplied with the appropriate control weight so that, with the help of the service program, it can easily be checked for functionality and balance. The Elmendorf tear test Procedure:     Cotton fabric was taken.     Warp and weft direction of the fabric was identified.     Two strips were cut from the fabric in both directions having dimensions of 100 x 63.5 mm.     The sample was then fixed in the jaws of the ...

what is the Working Principle of fogging tester?

Fogging Test Chamber   is the best tool to determine the fogging characteristics of automotive or other vehicle interior materials. The fogging tester is applicable for gravimetric method, photometric method and haze measurement method. Working Principle: The main frame of the Fogging tester includes a water sink fully filled with specified ethylene glycol, which can reach a high temperature. At the time of testing, leather specimens are put in the six standard glass containers filled with  high temperature liquid, and the stainless steel containers are placed above each glass. Relying on the constant water flow distribution, the temperature can maintain at 20℃ constantly, and it can be adjusted through the regulation device connected to the main frame. This controlled environment condition will generate a layer of “fog” on the surface of specimens. The operator can determine the fogging characteristics of materials based on gravimetric analysis method or refraction...

The Scratch Tester Working Principle From Qinsun LAB

The scratch test machine is used to evaluate the shear, scratch, planing, scraping and engraving performance of the material. Its applications include rigid organic materials, plastics and glass, and so on. The test parameters, such as the speed of scratches, the length of scratches, the distance between scratches and the number of lines, are the test equipment with strong applicability and convenience. scratch tester Working principle: Coating has three aspects: the action of protection, decoration, and hide the defects of products, and the three main hardness has a lot to do with paint, paint film hardness is said film one of the important properties of mechanical strength, is an important indicator of measuring coating product quality, and measure the coating hardness is an important index of the scratch resistance of determination; Coating good product in the process of packaging, transport and use will draw by hard brush, not row brush the paint film is often leave scratc...
