AATCC holds textile testing workshop

AATCC is offering an introduction to textile testing workshop covering AATCC and ASTM procedures, basic colour theory and measurement, as well as fibre identification, in December.

Participants will also learn to use the AATCC Gray Scales for staining and colour change, the AATCC Chromatic Transference Scale, and Xenon Reference fabric.

Colorfastness tests to be discussed include crocking, light, washing, and perspiration. Tests for evaluating physical properties include dimensional change (home laundering and accelerated methods), water repellency and resistance, and appearance retention. ASTM test methods, D 1424 Tearing Strength of Fabrics by Falling-Pendulum Type; D 3512 Random Tumble Pilling Tester Method; and D 4966 Abrasion Resistance of Textile Fabrics will also be demonstrated and discussed. The workshop will place emphasis on how to properly conduct and interpret the tests.

Organisers said the workshop would benefit individuals responsible for product evaluation, specifications, and quality control for apparel and textile materials. The workshop will be held from December 8-9 at AATCC’s Technical Center in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, USA.

Delegates can register and an early bird discount will be applied to registrations before November 23.
