BS ISO 7770:2009

Textiles. Test method for assessing the smoothness appearance of seams in fabrics after cleansing. | Status: Confirmed, Current

1 Scope This International Standard specifies a test method for evaluating the smoothness appearance of seams in fabrics, after one or several cleansing treatments. A seaming technique is not included, since the purpose is to evaluate existing seams. This method has been developed for use primarily with type B domestic washing machines, as defined in ISO 6330, in the cleansing process. However, it may be possible to use it with type A machines, as defined in the same International Standard.

NOTE A digital description of the ISO seam-pucker replicas is given in Annex A.
