Textiles - Tests for colour fastness - Part B02: Colour fastness to artificial light: Xenon arc fading lamp test
Executive summary
Method for determining the resistance of textiles colour to the action of an artificial light source.
Abstract
This part of ISO 105 specifies a test method intended for determining the resistance of the colour of textiles of all kinds and in all forms to the action of an artificial light source representative of natural daylight. The method is also applicable to white (bleached or optically brightened) textiles.
The method in this International Standard allows the use of two different sets of blue wool references. The results from the two different sets of references may not be identical.
