AATCC 162-2002 Chlorine Water Color Fastness Test Requirements

1 Preparation
Washing Color Fastness Tester

1.2 Drying machine
1.3 Color gray scale
1.4 Home used sodium hypochlorite, active chlorine about 5%.
1.5 Anhydrous calcium chloride
1.6 Magnesium chloride hexahydrate
1.7 Control fiber 162
1.8 Sulfuric acid, 6N
1.9 Potassium iodide 12%
1.10 Starch, 1%
1.11 Sodium thiosulfate, 0.1 N
1.12 Distilled or deionized water
1.13 Sodium carbonate
1.14 Acetic acid

2 Reagents

2.1 Formulate solution of  chlorine 5ppm and salt 100ppm , and adjust the pH 7.0  with sodium carbonate or acetic acid to (21 ℃, that is 70 ℉).

3 Test samples

TEST sample is about 6x6cm. The total weight of the sample and control fiber should be 5.0 ± 0.25g. If it is not enough, add a variety of samples, and the samples of  different color can be mixed together to make the total weight of 5.0g.

4 Methods

4.1  Add 5000ml of distilled water and 0.5ml sodium hypochlorite into dry cleaning steel cup. Cover and rotate for 10mins and then pour it out. (If the steel cup is not used for two weeks or used for other tests)
4.2 Prepare hard water
4.2.1 Take 8.24g of anhydrous calcium chloride
4.2.2 take 5.07g of magnesium chloride hexahydrate
4.2.3 Add 800ml of distilled water,  and calcium chloride and magnesium chloride into the 1L volumetric flask , and stir to dissolve while adding water to 1L. This is the so-called hard water that can be placed for 30 days.
4.3 Dilute 51 ml of hard water with distilled water to 5100ml,and add 0.5ml of sodium hypochlorite (stored for no more than 60 days), titrating the adjusted chlorine content of 5ppm.
4.3.1 0.01N sodium thiosulfate is commercially available or diluted with 0.1N.
4.4 Adjust the pH of the solution with sodium carbonate or acetic acid.
4.5 Place the cup with 5000ml of solution in a water washing machine at a temperature of 21 ° C (70 ° F).
4.6 The sample and control fiber put into the steel cup, running 60min.
4.7 Remove the sample and roll to remove the excess solution. Rinse with distilled water and then squeeze, and place the sample on the bleached absorbent towel to dry under room temperature.

5 Color rating

5.1 Rate the control finer 162 with a gray scale. if the rating is less than 2 or 2-3 level, the test failed, if reached, then rate the color change of the sample.
5.2 Perform a color change rating with a gray scale on the sample. 1-5 level.

Multi-Functional Scratch tester For automotive interior materials

          Multi-Functional Scratch tester is applicable to all types of wiping performance test of automotive interior materials; test equipment integrated three domestic standards (fingers scraping method, a hundred grid method, and plastic scraping finger scraping method).         Scratch tester is an electronic instrument capable of measuring critical load, adhesion, scratch resistance and bond strength for a wide range of surfaces. Scratch tester measures the scratch resistance of a sliding and moving surface in the relative motion to a stylus. The stylus is forced/pressed against the moving surface with precise controlled force which is normal to the surface and tangential force at the contact has to be measured.         Scratch tester can be utilized for all type of industrial coating from the plasma layers used in semiconductor and optical technology used in decorative coatings used for automotive and consum...

Reveal the standards for textile breathability testing and let you understand it in seconds!

 Reveal the standards for textile breathability testing and let you understand it in seconds! Breathability testing is a measure of how much gas can pass through a textile. However, there is no single "optimal" air permeability value, as it depends on the specific circumstances in which the textile is used. For example, if it is used to make sportswear, it is hoped that it has good breathability; if it is used to make insulating clothes or warm clothes, it is hoped that it can block the cold well. Therefore, when testing the air permeability of textiles, the purpose of using the textile must be clearly understood in order to obtain reasonable values. In order to accurately and quickly test the true breathability performance of a sample, specially designed and developed instruments must be used. Testing methods generally include: fabric thickness (Thickness), fabric density (Density), fabric water absorption rate (Water Absorption Rate), evaporation and mass transfer (Moistur...

Automotive materials and components testing

Automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) demand the highest quality components throughout the supply chain. Every automotive material and component must undergo rigorous testing and meet the highest industry and legal requirements. Qinsun-Lab assists manufacturers and suppliers with independent assured testing services against a wide range of OEM testing specifications, national (BS, ASTM, DIN, JASO) and international (ISO, EN, SAE) standards. SATRA’s testing services are accredited to ISO 17025. Flammability Motor vehicles contain components that burn if subjected to a large enough ignition source. These include seat upholstery, headlining, trim panels and floor coverings. Qinsun-lab can conduct a range of flammability tests including FMVSS 302 and ISO 3795. Abrasion and Scratch Tester Automotive materials experience mild abrasive actions from users entering the vehicle and being seated while driving or travelling. Qinsun-lab has a range of tests including Mar...
