Steps of testing colorfastness to crocking

Colorfastness to rubbing or crocking is a basic testing procedure of a garments or fabric. Crocking fastness takes the staining degree of white fabric as grading principle, 5 grades in total. The higher the value, the better the crocking fastness.After producing fabric it is badly need to take a test of crocking. Crocking is like rubbing a period of time with a minimum cycle. So here we are showing you how to do colorfastness to crocking. Colorfastness to rubbing or crocking is nothing but a combination of dry and wet rubbing test.


  There are basically two steps in colorfastness to rubbing or crocking. In basic procedure we generally follow the following steps:
  Colorfastness to rubbing or crocking in dry fabric is the first steps of rubbing test. In textile manufacturing process it is called dry rubbing test.First one object (fabric or garments) should have to select which needs to test with crocking meter.

  Crockmeter is a testing machine by which colorfastness to crocking is done. First a dry garment have to place according to the position. 

  Then one pure cotton fabric swatch is place on the teeth of the crock machine. 

  Then run machine about ten cycle and put out the white watch from the teeth of machine. 

  See the dry rubbing effect of the swatch. It comes with some shade of fabric or garments that was placing for test. Now compare the shade with the grey scale and numbering the test comparing with grey scale. This is the procedure of colorfastness to crocking.

  Colorfastness to crocking in wet fabric is the second steps of rubbing test. We call it as wet rubbing test also. 
   First object has to place on the crocking machine. Crockmeter is a machine. Then we wet the pure white watch and set it on the same position of teeth as we did for the dry rubbing test. Follow same procedure and finally will get the shade in wet form. Compare it with the grey scale and grade it according to the grey scale.

Tinuvin 1130: An Excellent UV Absorber

 In the field of the chemical industry, UV absorbers play a crucial role, particularly in protecting materials from UV damage. Today, we will delve into a highly regarded UV absorber—Tinuvin 1130. Tinuvin 1130 : chemical name: 3-(3-(2H-benzotriazole-2-yl)-4-hydroxy-5-tert-butyl phenyl)propionic acid polyethylene glycol 300 ester; CAS login number: 104810-48-2. This product is an exceptional UV absorber that offers numerous benefits due to its unique properties. One of the standout features of Tinuvin 1130 is its excellent weather resistance. It has a strong ability to absorb ultraviolet rays, particularly those with wavelengths ranging from 290-400nm. This effectively prevents coatings, plastics, rubber, and other materials from being damaged by UV rays, thereby maintaining the performance and appearance stability of these materials and extending their service life. In addition, Tinuvin 1130 exhibits good compatibility. It is easy to emulsify in water-based systems and can be...

Air-cooled Xenon Lamp Aging Tester

  The air-cooled xenon lamp aging tester is a device that uses an air-cooled system to dissipate heat and a xenon lamp to simulate ultraviolet light, visible light and infrared light in natural sunlight to perform accelerated aging tests on materials. It is commonly used in industries such as automobiles, coatings, plastics, rubber, and textiles. It can evaluate the aging resistance of materials under the combined effects of long-term light, temperature, humidity and other environmental factors in a relatively short period of time, helping companies improve product quality, extend service life, and optimize product anti-aging formulas and processes. Structural composition:  The main body is a test chamber, equipped with a xenon lamp and a matching optical filter system to simulate sunlight of different wavelengths, as well as temperature, humidity, lighting time and other control and adjustment devices, as well as an observation window and a sample rack. Working principle: The...

The Structure of Hexapod Tumble Tester

The Hexapod Tumbler Tester is a popular apparatus used in the evaluation of the appearance retention of carpets. Drum – constructed of Nylon or other like material and capped by a lid that is secured by a latching device. The drum and lid have a locating groove to hold the specimen backing sheet flat to the inner wall of the drum. A photograph of a typical drum is show in Photograph 1 and Photograph 2. The drum dimensions are:   Internal Diameter: 12 ± 0.18 in. (302 ± 5mm) Wall Thickness :0.3 in. approx. (8 mm approx.) Internal Depth: 8.2 ± 0.2 in. (207 ± 5 mm)  Driving System - cradles the drum on rollers and keeps the axis of the drum level, and rotates the drum at 35 ± 2 rpm (3.6 ± 0.2 rad/s). The driving direction reverses after approximately 500 revolutions.  After the 500 rotations the unit will stop and stand stationary for approximately 5 to 15 seconds, then begin rotating in the opposite direction. After 2000 rotations the unit will stop and w...
