Textiles. Tests for colour fastness. Colour fastness to artificial light: Xenon arc fading lamp test | Status: Confirmed, Current

1 Scope This part of ISO 105 specifies a method intended for determining the effect on the colour of textiles of all kinds and in all forms to the action of an artificial light source representative of natural daylight (D65). The method is also applicable to white (bleached or optically brightened) textiles. This method allows the use of two different sets of blue wool references. The results from the two different sets of references may not be identical.
