Purpose and Scope1.1 This test method is designed toevaluate the colorfastness to non-chlorinebleach in home laundering of textileswhich are expected to withstand frequentlaundering. The fabric color changes

10、 re-sulting from the powdered non-chlorinebleach, detergent solution and abrasiveaction of five home launderings are eval-uated.1.2 First establish the level of perfor-mance with powdered non-chlorinebleach and if an effect is found, thenretest with detergent alone. It may benecessary to use a water

11、 only wash toseparate the effects of components likehardness, pH or chlorine content.1.3 Since the powdered non-chlorinebleaches currently available contain in-gredients other than the powdered non-chlorine bleach; such as fluorescent whit-ening agents, bluing, etc., it is the totaleffect of these c

Uses and Limitation

23、s5.1 Non-chlorine bleaches are avail-able in two different formspowdered orliquid. This method only evaluates thecolorfastness of textiles to powdered non-chlorine bleach in home laundering. Dueto differences in active ingredients, theresults obtained by this method may notbe representative of resul

24、ts obtained bythe use of liquid non-chlorine bleach ontextiles during laundering.6. Apparatus and Materials6.1 Automatic washing machine (see13.2).6.2 Automatic tumble dryer (see 13.3).6.3 Conditioning/drying racks withpull-out screens or perforated shelves(see 13.4).6.4 Ballast of 92 92 3 cm (36 36

26、 kg (20 lbs)capacity.6.8 Powdered non-chlorine bleach (see13.7 and 13.8).7. Test Specimens7.1 The weight of the test specimencan influence the results of this test. Onlyone test specimen is to be laundered in aload. For ease in weighing fabrics, thetest specimen weight is to be 110.0 10.0g (0.25 0.0

27、2 lb). For garment testing,one garment is to be tested. If the gar-ment weight exceeds the specified loadweight of 1.8 kg or 4 lb, the total weightis to be included in the report.

Evaluation9.1 The color change can be quantita-tively determined by measuring t

49、An in-terlaboratory study was carried out in1986 to establish the precision of this testmethod for determining the effect ofpowdered non-chlorine bleach in homelaundering on the colorfastness of textilematerials.Four materials were tested separatelyfor five cycles of home laundering in du-plicate at each of the five laboratories us-ing one brand of powdered non-chlorinebleach.
