The sectors in dry cleaning

Dry cleaning is any cleaning process for clothing and textiles using a chemical solvent other than water.The dry cleaning industry can be divided into 3 sectors:coin-operated facilities, commercial operations, and industrial cleaners. Coin-operated facilities are usually part of a laundry supplying "self-service" dry cleaning for consumers. Only synthetic solvents are used in coin operated dry cleaning machines.Such machines are small, with a capacity of 3.6 to 11.5 kg (8 to 25 lb) of clothing.

Commercial operations, such as small neighborhood or franchise dry cleaning shops, clean soiled apparel for the consumer. Generally, perchloroethylene and petroleum solvents are used in commercial operations.A typical "perc" plant operates a 14 to 27 kg (30 to 60 lb) capacity washer/extractor and an equivalent size reclaiming dryer.

Industrial cleaners are larger dry cleaning plants which supply rental service of uniforms, mats,mops, etc., to businesses or industries. Perchloroethylene is used by approximately 50 percent of theindustrial dry cleaning establishments.A typical large industrial cleaner has a 230 kg (500 lb) capacity washer/extractor and 3 to 6 38-kg (100-lb) capacity dryers.

Moisture Management Test Method -AATCC 195

MMT textile moisture management tester Test Method -AATCC 195 is for the measurement, evaluation and classification of liquid moisture management properties of textile fabrics. The test method produces objective measurements of liquid moisture management properties of knitted, woven and nonwoven textile fabrics. The test method produces objective measurements of liquid moisture management properties of knitted, woven, and nonwoven textile fabrics. The results obtained with this test method are based on water resistance, water repellency, and water absorption characteristics of the fabric structure, including the fabric's geometric and internal structure and the wicking characteristics of its fibers and yarns.

How Sublimation Fastness Tester Works?

Sublimation Fastness Tester is a suitable instrument for dyestuff manufacturers as well as textile processors for checking effects of dry heat on dyestuff. Qinsun-lab offers Sublimation Fastness Tester of the best quality and at the best price which gives accurate results. Features of Sublimation Fastness Tester : Testing the effect of direct heat on the dyestuff； up to 250°C temperature range； Independent digital timers with the minimum display of 1℃(one with each of top and bottom plates, respectively)； Can test entire range of temperature in a single test. Working Principle: A dyed cloth piece is sandwiched between two undyed pieces and placed to cover the heat pads and the test goes on for a preset time period. The fabric pieces should be picked up immediately. The undyed fabric pieces will be stained by the dyes. This gives the sublimation fastness properties for the range of temperature 130°C to 250°C in one test. A rea
