The Color Fastness to Washing Tester is an instrument used to measure the color fastness of textiles and fabric during washing. It is widely used in textiles, dyes, auxiliaries and other fields, and is of great significance for ensuring the quality of textiles. Before conducting the color fastness to washing experiment, you need to prepare some necessary accessories and consumables. This article will give you a detailed introduction to the uses of these accessories and consumables and precautions for purchase.
Textile Fabric Rotawash Color Fastness Tester
- Specimen Accessories
The sample clamp is a tool used to fix the textile to be tested, usually made of stainless steel. When selecting a sample fixture, attention should be paid to whether its size matches the textile to be tested to ensure that the sample does not move during the experiment. In addition, the surface of the sample fixture should be smooth and burr-free to avoid damaging the textile.
- Standard detergent
Standard detergents are chemical reagents used to simulate the actual washing process. When conducting color fastness tests to washing, detergents should be selected that are consistent with the actual use environment. For example, if the purpose of the experiment is to evaluate the color fastness of textiles in household laundering, you can choose a common laundry detergent on the market; if the purpose of the experiment is to evaluate the color fastness of textiles in industrial laundering, you can choose a professional industrial detergent.
- Mixer
The agitator is a device used to simulate the mechanical stirring effect in the actual washing process. When conducting color fastness to washing tests, a stirrer that can provide sufficient stirring strength should be selected to ensure that the sample is fully in contact with the detergent during the test. In addition, the rotation speed of the stirrer should also be adjustable so that the stirring speed can be adjusted according to the experimental requirements.
- Sink or water bath
A water tank or water bath is a device used to load samples and detergents. When conducting color fastness to washing experiments, a sink or water bath that can accommodate all samples and detergents should be selected to ensure a smooth test process. In addition, the temperature control function of the sink or water bath is also an important consideration, because different textiles may need to be washed at different water temperatures.
- Colorimeter
A colorimeter is an instrument used to measure color changes in textiles. When conducting color fastness to washing experiments, a colorimeter with high precision and stability should be selected to ensure the accuracy of the experimental results. In addition, the measurement range and accuracy of the colorimeter should also match the experimental requirements.
- Standard whiteboard
The standard white plate is the reference equipment used to calibrate the colorimeter. When conducting color fastness to washing experiments, a standard white board with a flat surface and no obvious flaws should be selected to ensure the accuracy of the experimental results. In addition, the size of the standard white plate should also match the measurement range of the colorimeter.
- Other auxiliary tools
In addition to the main accessories and consumables mentioned above, you may also need some auxiliary tools for washing color fastness experiments, such as timers, thermometers, rulers, etc. These tools can help you better control experimental conditions and ensure the accuracy of experimental results.
In short, before using the color fastness to washing tester to perform the color fastness to washing test, you need to prepare some necessary accessories and consumables, such as sample fixtures, standard detergent, stirrer, sink or water bath, colorimeter, standard white board, etc. . Choosing appropriate accessories and consumables can ensure the smooth progress of the experimental process and improve the accuracy of experimental results.
