New Testing Method For Scratch-resistance Test
Previously, researchers tested the scratch-resistance of car paint in one of two ways: either via a crockmeter or via the Amtec-Kistler car wash method. A crockmeter is a type of machine that rubs a robotic finger over a surface to test its resilience. The Amtec-Kistler car wash is a piece of labora...

Wear Modes To Operate And Evaluate
There are numerous instruments available that can simulate different types of wear modes. The solutions are versatile, affordable, easy to operate and allow the user to evaluate: Two-body abrasive wear hard particles are forced against and moved along a solid surface; Sliding wear occurs between two...

oxidative Bleach With Washing fastness
In the textile sector, bleaching processes are applied to all textile products that need to be white or print. The basis of the bleaching processes is the disintegration of the natural dyes, especially in the structure of the natural fibers, and their water-solubility, followed by washing the fabric...

AATCC Test Method 61-1996 for textile Fastness
This test evaluates colorfastness and staining potential of fabrics under accelerated wash condition that simulate five home washings. Five separate methods test different home washing conditions. Specimens can also be evaluated for abrasion resistance during laundering based on appearance. How This...

The Pilling Testeing Method of ASTM D3512
This test method covers the determination of the propensity of a fabric to form pills from fuzz under test conditions intended to simulate normal wear using the brush pilling tester. This procedure is generally applicable to all types of apparel fabrics including both woven and knitted fabrics. NOTE...

The Significance of Fabric Furring and Pilling Evaluation
As widely known, pilling may be defined as a surface defect of textile fabrics consisting of a number of pills (i.e., roughly spherical masses) made of entangled fibres. Since pilling represents, for the final user, a non-desired feature, its control, and measurement, is one of the main issues for t...

The measurement of scratch to materials
Scratch testing is carried out to get an insight into materials to determine the resistance to abrasion and wear of modern composite materials and automotive paints varnishes, as well as coatings. Single asperity scratching allows the mechanisms behind abrasive or ductile damage of samples under inv...
