Textiles - Tests for colour fastness - Part C06: Colour fastness to domestic and commercial laundering (ISO 105-C06:2010)

ISO 105-C06:2010 specifies methods intended for determining the resistance of the colour of textiles of all kinds and in all forms to domestic or commercial laundering procedures used for normal household articles using a reference detergent. Industrial and hospital articles may be subjected to special laundering procedures which may be more severe in some aspects.
The colour loss and staining resulting from desorption and/or abrasive action in one single (S) test closely approximates to one commercial or domestic laundering. The results of one multiple (M) test may in some cases be approximated by the results of up to five domestic or commercial launderings at temperatures not exceeding 70 °C. The M tests are more severe than the S tests because of an increase in mechanical action.
These methods do not reflect the effect of optical brighteners present in commercial washing products.
These methods are designed for the detergents and bleach systems given. Other detergents and bleach systems may require different conditions and levels of ingredients.

Textilien - Farbechtheitsprüfungen - Teil C06: Farbechtheit bei der Haushaltswäsche und der gewerblichen Wäsche (ISO 105-C06:2010)

Dieser Teil von ISO 105 legt Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der Widerstandsfähigkeit der Farbe von Textilien
jeder Art und in allen Verarbeitungszuständen gegen Haushaltswäschen oder gewerbliche Waschprozesse,
wie sie für normale, im Haushalt gebräuchliche Textilien angewendet werden, fest. Arbeitsbekleidung und
Krankenhauswäsche werden üblicherweise besonderen Waschverfahren unterworfen, die in verschiedener
Hinsicht eine schwerere Beanspruchung darstellen können.
Der Farbverlust und das Anbluten, die von der Desorption und/oder dem Abrieb bei einer Einfachprüfung (S)
herrühren, entsprechen annähernd dem Effekt einer Haushalts- oder gewerblichen Wäsche. Die Ergebnisse
einer Mehrfachprüfung (M) können in einigen Fällen dem Resultat von bis zu fünf Haushalts- oder
gewerblichen Wäschen entsprechen, wenn die Temperatur 70 °C nicht übersteigt. Die „M“-Prüfverfahren sind
wegen der stärkeren mechanischen Beanspruchung strenger als die „S“-Prüfverfahren.
Diese Prüfverfahren spiegeln nicht den Einfluss von optischen Aufhellern wider, die in handelsüblichen
Waschmitteln vorhanden sind.
Diese Verfahren sind für die angegebenen Wasch- und Bleichmittelsysteme entwickelt worden. Andere
Wasch- und Bleichmittelsysteme können verschiedene Bedingungen und Gehalte der Inhaltsstoffe erfordern.

Textiles - Essais de solidité des teintures - Partie C06: Solidité des teintures aux lavages domestiques et industriels (ISO 105-C06:2010)

L'ISO 105-C06:2010 spécifie des méthodes pour la détermination de la solidité des coloris sur les textiles de toutes natures et sous toutes formes, aux procédés de lavages domestiques et industriels employés pour les articles à usages domestiques, qui utilisent un détergent de référence. Les articles à usages hospitaliers ou industriels peuvent être soumis à des procédés de lavage spéciaux qui peuvent être plus sévères sur certains points.
La dégradation et le dégorgement résultant de la désorption et/ou de l'action abrasive au cours d'un essai type (S) se rapprochent étroitement de ceux obtenus après un lavage industriel ou domestique. Les résultats d'un essai répété (M) peuvent dans certains cas se rapprocher des résultats obtenus après cinq lavages domestiques ou industriels à des températures ne dépassant pas 70 °C. Les essais du type «M» sont plus sévères que ceux du type «S» en raison d'un accroissement de l'action mécanique.
Ces méthodes ne reproduisent pas l'effet des azurants optiques présents dans les produits de lavage commerciaux.
Ces méthodes sont conçues pour les systèmes de détergent et blanchiment donnés. D'autres systèmes de détergent et blanchiment peuvent nécessiter des conditions et des niveaux d'ingrédients différents.

Tekstilije - Preskušanje barvne obstojnosti - Del C06: Barvna obstojnost proti gospodinjskemu in poklicnemu pranju (ISO 105-C06:2010)

Ta del standarda ISO 105 določa metode, namenjene za določevanje odpornosti barve vseh vrst in oblik tekstilij proti gospodinjskim in poklicnim postopkom pranja, ki se uporabljajo za običajne gospodinjske izdelke, z referenčnim detergentom. Za izdelke, ki se uporabljajo v industriji in bolnišnicah, bo morda treba uporabiti posebne postopke pranja, ki so z nekaterih vidikov ostrejši. Izguba barve in madeži zaradi desorpcije in/ali abrazivnega delovanja pri enem samem (S) preskusu, so tesen
približek enemu poklicnemu ali gospodinjskemu pranju. Rezultati enega večkratnega (M) preskusa so lahko v nekaterih primerih približki rezultatov največ petih gospodinjskih ali poklicnih pranj pri temperaturah, nižjih od 70 °C. Večkratni preskusi so zaradi večjega mehanskega delovanja ostrejši od enkratnih. Te metode ne odražajo učinka optičnih belil, ki so prisotna v poklicnih pralnih sredstvih. Te metode so namenjene za navedene detergente in postopke beljenja. Za druge detergente ali postopke beljenja bi bili morda potrebni drugačni pogoji in količine sestavin.

Overview - EN ISO 105-C06:2010 (Textiles | Colour fastness to laundering)

EN ISO 105-C06:2010 specifies standardized test methods to determine the resistance of textile colour to domestic and commercial laundering using reference detergents. It covers single (S) and multiple (M) test procedures that simulate one or several wash cycles, describing test conditions (temperature, alkalinity, bleaching, mechanical action) and how to assess colour change and staining of adjacent fabrics. The methods are intended for textiles of all kinds and in all forms used in households and commercial laundries; industrial/hospital laundering may require adapted procedures.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Test principle: Textile specimens are laundered in contact with specified adjacent fabric(s), then rinsed, dried and assessed for colour loss and staining by grey scales or instrumental methods.
• Test types:
  • Single (S) test - approximates one domestic/commercial wash.
  • Multiple (M) test - increased mechanical action; can approximate up to five launderings (temperatures not exceeding 70 °C in many cases).
• Apparatus & mechanical action:
  • Rotating bath device with stainless steel containers and controlled temperature (shaft/container rotation frequency and dimensions are defined in the standard).
  • Non‑corrodible steel balls to produce abrasive action.
• Adjacent fabrics:
  • Use of multifibre or single-fibre adjacent fabrics (ISO 105-F series), including multifibre types suitable for different test temperatures.
• Detergents & bleaching:
  • Reference detergents without optical brighteners - AATCC 1993 Standard Reference Detergent WOB and ECE Detergent with Phosphates are specified.
  • Methods do not reflect effects of optical brighteners found in many commercial products.
• Assessment methods:
  • Grey scale assessment for change in colour and staining (ISO 105-A02 / A03) or instrumental measurement alternatives (ISO 105-A04 / A05).
• Limitations:
  • Designed for specific detergents/bleach systems; other products may require changed conditions.

Practical applications and users

This standard is used to:

• Validate wash performance of dyed fabrics and garments.
• Guide formulation and selection of dyes, finishes and textiles for wash durability.
• Support quality control in textile manufacturing and supply chains.
• Provide objective test data for retailers, test laboratories, certification bodies and contract laundries. Typical users: textile test labs, apparel manufacturers, dye and chemical suppliers, laundries (commercial/hospital), R&D departments and standards/conformity assessors.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take Part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 105-C06 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles, Subcommittee SC 1, Tests for
coloured textiles and colorants.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 105-C06:1994). It also incorporates
ISO 105-C06:1994/Cor. 1:2002 and ISO 105-C06:1994/Cor. 2:2002. Clause 4 has been technically revised to
include the use of instrumental measurement and correction to AATCC detergent formula and dated
references have been removed from Clause 2.
ISO 105 consists of many parts designated by a part letter and a two-digit serial number (e.g. A01), under the
general title Textiles — Test for colour fastness. A complete list of these parts is given in ISO 105-A01.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 105-C06:2010(E)

Textiles — Tests for colour fastness —
Part C06:
Colour fastness to domestic and commercial laundering
1 Scope
This part of ISO 105 specifies methods intended for determining the resistance of the colour of textiles of all
kinds and in all forms to domestic or commercial laundering procedures used for normal household articles
using a reference detergent. Industrial and hospital articles may be subjected to special laundering
procedures which may be more severe in some aspects.
The colour loss and staining resulting from desorption and/or abrasive action in one single (S) test closely
approximates to one commercial or domestic laundering. The results of one multiple (M) test may in some
cases be approximated by the results of up to five domestic or commercial launderings at temperatures not
exceeding 70 °C. The M tests are more severe than the S tests because of an increase in mechanical action.
These methods do not reflect the effect of optical brighteners present in commercial washing products.
These methods are designed for the detergents and bleach systems given. Other detergents and bleach
systems may require different conditions and levels of ingredients.
