3 Principle
A specimen of the textile in contact with either two single-fibre adjacent fabrics or a multifibre adjacent fabric is immersed in water, drained and placed between two plates under a specified pressure in a test device. The specimen and the adjacent fabric(s) are dried separately. The change in colour of the specimen and the staining of the adjacent fabric(s) are assessed by comparison with the grey scales or instrumentally.
4 Apparatus and materials
4.1 Test device, consisting of a frame of stainless steel into which a weight-piece of mass approximately 5 kg and base of 60 mm × 115 mm is closely fitted, so that a pressure of (12,5 ± 0,9) kPa can be applied on test specimens measuring (40 ± 2) mm × (100 ± 2) mm placed between glass or acrylic-resin plates measuring approximately 60 mm × 115 mm × 1,5 mm. The test device shall be constructed so that, if the weight-piece is removed during the test, the pressure remains unchanged.
If the dimensions of the composite specimen differ from the size of (40 ± 2) mm × (100 ± 2) mm, the weight-piece used shall be such that a nominal pressure of (12,5 ± 0,9) kPa is applied to the specimen.
Other devices may be used provided that equivalent results are obtained.
4.2 Oven, maintained at (37 ± 2) °C.
4.3 Adjacent fabrics (see ISO 105-A01).
Either
4.3.1 A multifibre adjacent fabric complying with ISO 105-F10.
Or
4.3.2 Two single-fibre adjacent fabrics, complying with the relevant part of ISO 105-F01 to ISO 105-F06.
One of the adjacent fabrics shall be made of the same kind of fibre as that of the textile to be tested, or that predominating in the case of blends, and the second piece shall be made of the fibre indicated in Table 1 or, in the case of blends, of the kind of fibre second in order of predominance or as otherwise specified.
4.3.3 If required, a non-dyeable fabric (for example, polypropylene).
4.4 Grey scale for assessing change in colour, complying with ISO 105-A02.
4.5 Grey scale for assessing staining, complying with ISO 105-A03.
4.6 Spectrophotometer or colorimeter for assessing change in colour and staining, complying with ISO 105-A04 and ISO 105-A05.
4.7 A set of 11 glass or acrylic resin plates.
4.8 Flat-bottomed dish made of inert materials.ISO 105-E01 pdf download.ISO 105-E01-2013 pdf download
