Textiles - Tests for colour fastness - Part E08: Colour fastness to hot water (ISO 105-E08:1994)
A specimen of the textile (textiles of all kinds and in all forms) in contact with adjacent fabrics is rolled around a glass rod, treated with slightly acidified hot water and dried. The change in colour of each specimen and the staining of the adjacent fabrics are assessed with the grey scales. The method is mainly applicable to wool and textiles containing wool.
Textilien - Farbechtheitsprüfungen - Teil E08: Farbechtheit gegen heißes Wasser (ISO 105-E08:1994)
Dieser Teil von ISO 105 beschreibt ein Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der Widerstandsfähigkeit der Farbe von Textilien jeder Art und in allen Verarbeitungßuständen gegen die Einwirkung von heißem Wasser. Die Norm gilt hauptsächlich für Textilien aus Wolle und wollhaltigen Fasermischungen.

General Information
Overview
EN ISO 105-E08:1996 is an internationally recognized standard developed by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) in alignment with ISO 105-E08:1994. This standard defines the test method for colour fastness to hot water in textiles. It specifies a procedure to assess how well textiles, especially wool and wool blends, retain their color when exposed to hot water. The standard provides detailed guidance on specimen preparation, testing conditions, and evaluation criteria, promoting consistent and reliable results across textile manufacturing and quality control.
Key Topics
Scope and Applicability
The test is mainly intended for wool textiles and fabrics containing wool but is applicable to textiles of all kinds and forms. It evaluates the resistance of textile colours to the effect of slightly acidified hot water at controlled temperatures.Specimen Preparation
Specimens (fabric, yarn, or loose fibres) are placed between specified adjacent fabrics (such as wool or cotton), sewn together to form a composite sample. This method simulates real-life fabric contact during laundering or processing.Testing Procedure
The composite specimen is rolled tightly around a glass rod, submerged in slightly acidified hot water (pH ~6) at 70°C ± 2°C for 30 minutes under reflux conditions to avoid evaporation. This exposure simulates conditions textiles encounter during washing or hot water treatments.Evaluation of Colour Fastness
After treatment, the specimen and adjacent fabrics are dried and assessed for colour change and staining using grey scales as defined in related ISO standards (ISO 105-A02 for colour change and ISO 105-A03 for staining). Numerical ratings from these grey scales quantify the resistance of textile dyes to hot water exposure.Test Documentation
The test report must include identification details of the sample, the standard's reference with year, and the grey scale ratings for both colour change and staining of adjacent fabrics.
Applications
Textile Quality Control
Manufacturers use this standard to verify the durability of fabric colours against hot water exposure, ensuring products meet market and regulatory requirements.Product Development
Textile developers utilize the test during dye formulation and fabric finishing to enhance colour fastness, particularly for wool products which are prone to colour fading.Consumer Safety and Satisfaction
Ensuring colour stability during washing and cleaning processes contributes to longer-lasting garments and textiles, minimizing complaints about colour bleeding or fading.Certification and Compliance
Compliance with EN ISO 105-E08 can be a requirement in tender specifications, trade agreements, and accreditation of textile products on a global scale.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Esch member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard ISO 105-EO8 was prepared by Technical Committee
lSO/TC 38, Textiles, Subcommittee SC 1, Tests for coloured textiles and
coloran ts.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition
(ISO 105-E08:1987), of which it constitutes a technical revision.
ISO 105 was previously published in thirteen “Parts ”, each designated by
a letter (e.g. “Part A ”), with publication dates between 1978 and 1985.
Esch part contained a series of “sections ”, each designated by the re-
spective part letter and by a two-digit serial number (e.g. “Section AO1 “).
These sections are now being republished as separate documents, them-
selves designated “Parts” but retaining their earlier alphanumeric desig-
nations. A complete list of these Parts is given in ISO 105-AOl .
