Introduction
The stability of color or its fastness is one of the most important requirements
of valuable customers. Colour fastness of a dyed goods means the resistance
power of a dyed goods against any hazards.
The color textiles show different resistance power to different agencies such
as light, wash, rubbing, perspiration, water, bleach, acid, alkali etc.
There are many types of testing of color fastness. But in the industry the
fastness test is done according to the buyer requirement.
Major Color Fastness Testes

Colorfastness to Washing
Colorfastness to Crocking / Rubbing
Colorfastness to Perspiration
Colorfastness to Hot Pressing
Colorfastness to Dry Cleaning
Colorfastness to Light
Color Fastness To Wash

Colorfastness to Washing is a method for determining the
resistance of the colour of textiles from all kinds of wash in water
with soap and detergent. There are different test methods to check
the color fastness to washing which is standardized by ISO.

Test Procedure (Color fastness to wash)

APPARATUS AND MATERIALS:
Gyro wash m/c (Wash-wheel & Stainless steel container)
Stainless steel ball(diameter =0.6cm,wt. =1mg)
Multi-fiber fabric
Thermometer (0-100) C
Sewing m/c
Dryer
ISO type grey scale for changing shade
ISO type grey scale for staining
Color matching cabinet (light box).
Sample Preparation:
If the textile to be tested in fabric: Cut the sample fabric 10cm 4 cm and make sure
all colors are included (if necessary use additional specimens) in it. Sew it along all four
edges with the same size of multi fiber fabric. This is the composite test specimen.
If the textile to be tested is yarn or loose fiber: Take a mass of yarn or fiber
approximately equal to of the combined mass of the adjacent fabrics, then place
between a 10cm 4 cm piece of multi fiber fabric and a piece of same size non dye
able fabric and sew them along all four sides. This is the composite test specimen.
According to ISO RECOMMENDATION NO3 (ISO 105 C03): The composite specimen is treated
in a wash wheel or an equivalent apparatus at 60 2C (1403.6F) for 30 mints using
the color fastness test detergents 77(ISO Std soap) 5 g/l and 2 g/l soda ash to a given
liquor ratio of 50:1.
Finally we decreased the temperature and washed with cold water and dry them.
EVALUATION:
Compare the contrast between the treated and untreated sample with
the changing grey scale and staining of color in the adjacent multifiber fabric with the staining grey scale.
This assessment is done in a color matching cabinet under standard
lighting of D65 (Artificial day light).

Equipment that needed for measurement:
Crock Meter.
Cotton Rubbing Cotton.
Grey Scale
Stop Watch
Color Matching Cabinet.
12
Size of Fabric:
You will need to have 14 Cm
5 Cm pieces of textile fabric
sample (one warp direction/
wale direction and other weft/
course direction).
13
Test Procedure of Color Fastness To

Rubbing:
a)
Lock the test specimen (textile sample) onto the

base of the crock meter.
b) Using the spinal clip, set 5 Cm 5Cm of the white
cotton fabric to the finger of the crock meter.
c) Lower the covered finger on the test sample.
d) Turn hand crank at the rate of the one turn per
second.
e) Remove the white rubbing test cloth and e valuate
with grey scale.
14
Evaluation
In this stage compare the

contrast between the
treated and untreated white
rubbing cloth with grey
scale and rated 1 to 5.
15
Color Fastness to light

This test measures the resistance to fading of
dyed textile when exposed to day-light.The test
sample is exposed to light for a certain time(24
hrs, 36 hrs,48 hrs, 72 hrs, etc) or by customer
demand and compare the change with original
unexposed sample.The changes are assessed
by Blue Scales (1-8).
16
Procedure
The sample is cut and should be exposed
(1/2 covered and 1/2 exposed) together
with standard dyed wool samples (1-8).
The standard and the specimen mounted
in a frame.The composite sample must be
protected from rain.
17
Evaluation:
Evaluation is made numerically by
European/American blue Scale (1-8).

Color Fastness to Perspiration:

Principle:
The garments which come into contact with the
body where perspiration is heavy may suffer
serious local discoloration. This test is intended to
determine the resistance of color of dyed textile to
the action of acidic and alkaline perspiration.
19
Equipment:
Perspiration Tester
Oven, maintained at 372C temperature
Multifiber test fabric
Grey Scale
Color matching chamber
Acidic and Alkaline solution
Glass or Acrylic plate

Test Procedure:
Wet-out the composite test sample in mentioned alkaline or acidic
solution at room temperature. M:L ratio 1:50 and leave for 30
minutes.
Pour off excess solution and place the composite sample between
two glass plate or acrylic plate under a pressure of 4.5 Kg and
place in an oven for 4 hours at 372C temperature.

27
Wet Pressing
a)
Soak the test specimen and a piece of cotton adjacent fabric in
distilled water and squeeze it to maintain 100% pick up.
b)
