The search unit is fitted with a filter that provides a spectral response equivalent to observation by the human eye in average daylight. Standardize the reflectance meter by means of a calibrated white enamel working standard that has a

SANS 6081:2008 Edition 3 3 4 Sampling Take a laboratory sample as specified in the relevant product standard. Where no standard exists, take the laboratory sample as agree

18、d upon between the test laboratory and the manufacturer to ensure a reasonable and acceptable reliability at a reasonable and acceptable confidence level. 5 Procedure 5.1 With indelible marking ink (see 2.1), uniquely identify each standard soiled cotton swatch (see 2.2). NOTE It is preferable to fi

19、nish the raw edges of the swatches with stitching to prevent unravelling during testing. 5.2 Using the photo-electric reflectance meter (see 3.1), take three reflectance readings on each side of each standard soiled cotton swatch in turn. Take the readings with the swatch under test superimposed on

20、three unwashed swatches placed on a black enamel standard. Calculate both the mean reflectance of each swatch from the relevant 6 readings and the standard deviation () of the 20 swatches. If the standard deviation does not exceed 2,0, proceed as in 5.4. 5.3 If, however, the standard deviation excee

21、ds 2,0, remove and discard the swatches which have the highest or lowest (or both, as appropriate) reflectance readings and replace with new swatches. Determine, as in 5.2, the mean reflectance of each replacement and calculate the new standard deviation. Repeat this procedure until the standard dev

22、iation of the 20 swatches does not exceed 2,0. 5.4 Start the washing device (see 3.2) and set it to a wash temperature of 40 C 1 C. 5.5 Weigh out (see 3.3) 6,00 g of the standard detergent (see 2.3) into a 5 L beaker (see 3.4) and add 3 L of the standard hard water (see 2.4). 5.6 Weigh out 6,00 g of

23、 the test specimen detergent into a 5 L beaker and add 3 L of the standard hard water. It is recommended that the solutions be prepared sufficiently early to allow the standard and test specimen to be completely dissolved when the test is started. 5.7 Place both of the solutions on a warm hotplate o

24、r in a water bath (see 3.5) 1 h before use and, stirring occasionally, bring their temperatures to 40 C 1 C, and then maintain them at this temperature until the test is started. 5.8 Place 10 balls (see 3.6) in each of the containers of the washing device. 5.9 Mix the standard solution thoroughly an

25、d immediately thereafter, using a measuring cylinder (see 3.7), transfer 200 mL of the solution to a container of the washing device. Mix the remaining solution thoroughly and in the same way transfer 200 mL of the solution into another container of the washing device. Repeat this operation until th

26、ere are 10 containers, each containing 200 mL of standard detergent solution. 5.10 Repeat the procedure given in 5.9 but use the test specimen solution. 5.11 Bring the temperature of the solutions in the containers back to 40 C 1 C, and then add a swatch to each container of both the standard soluti

27、on and the test specimen solution. Close the containers, install them in the washing device, and wash for exactly 30 min (see 3.8), at a speed of 40 r/min 2 r/min. SANS 6081:2008 Edition 3 4 5.12 After washing, remove the swatches from the wash solutions and without squeezing, blot each swatch separ

28、ately between pieces of the dry blotting paper (see 2.5); then rinse, for 1 min, all the swatches together in approximately 4 L of the standard hard water at a temperature of 25 C 3 C, stirring with a glass rod during the rinsing. Remove the swatches from the water and, without squeezing, blot each

29、swatch separately between pieces of the dry blotting paper. 5.13 Steam-iron (see 3.9) the blotted swatches and condition them at ambient temperature for at least 1 h. 5.14 Determine the mean reflectance of each of the washed swatches as in 5.2 but, instead of three unwashed swatches, place three was

30、hed swatches on the black enamel standard. It is recommended that swatches washed in the standard solution be superimposed on three swatches washed in the standard solution; and swatches washed in the test specimen solution be superimposed on three swatches washed in the test specimen solution. 6 Ca

31、lculations 6.1 Calculate the comparative cleaning efficacy CE, expressed as a percentage soil removal, of the test specimen as follows: CE = 1001312RRRRwhere R1is the mean reflectance of the standard soiled cotton swatches before washing (see 5.2 or 5.3, as relevant); R2is the mean reflectance of th

32、e standard soiled cotton swatches after washing with the test specimen; R3is the mean reflectance of the standard soiled cotton swatches after washing with the standard detergent. NOTE The reflectance reading indicates the amount of soil in the swatches. The increase in the reflectance units after w

33、ashing indicates the amount of soil removed. SANS 6081:2008 Edition 3 5 6.2 Use the following formula to determine the standard deviation, 1n, of the difference in the reflectance units between the washed and unwashed swatches for the standard detergent and for the test specimen: ()12=nddn 1 where d

34、 is the individual (R2 R1) difference or individual (R3 R1) difference (see 6.1); d is the mean of the (R2 R1) difference or the mean of the (R3 R1) difference (see 6.1); n is the number of readings. NOTE When determining the standard deviation, take into account the sign (+ or -) of each individual

35、 difference value (d) and the sign of the mean difference value ( d ). 6.3 Use a standard deviation of 2,0 from the mean (see 6. 2) for acceptance of results to be used in the calculation of CE (see 6. 1). 6.4 If 3 out of 10 results are outside the acceptance limit, repeat the test. 7 Test report Re

36、port the following information: a) all the data needed to identify the laboratory sample tested; b) confirmation that the test was carried out in accordance with this standard; c) any deviation from this standard; and d) the comparative cleaning efficiency, expressed as a percentage soil removal, of the detergent under test.
