Textiles - Tests for colour fastness - Part E14: Colour fastness to acid-felting: Mild (ISO 105-E14:1994)

A specimen of the textile (textiles in all kinds and in all forms) in contact with adjacent fabrics is milled in acid solution, rinsed and dried (action of dilute and hot mineral acids). The change in colour of the specimen and the staining of the adjacent fabrics are assessed with the grey scales.

Overview

EN ISO 105-E14:1996 is an international standard that specifies a method for testing the colour fastness of textiles to acid-felting under mild conditions. This standard evaluates how textiles resist colour change and staining during exposure to dilute and hot mineral acids-a process commonly encountered in industries such as hat-making and felt production. By simulating the effects of acid felting, the standard provides a reliable way to assess textile durability and colour stability.

Key Topics

  • Scope: Applicable to all types and forms of textiles tested by milling in acid solution with adjacent fabrics.
  • Test Principle: A textile specimen is placed in contact with adjacent fabrics, milled in a sulfuric acid solution at 60 °C, rinsed, and dried. Changes in colour and staining are assessed using grey scale comparisons.
  • Reagents and Apparatus: Requires dilute sulfuric acid solution, open containers or appropriate milling devices, wool and other fiber-based adjacent fabrics, and standardized grey scales for colour change and staining assessment.
  • Specimen Preparation: Textiles can be tested as fabrics, yarn (knitted or laid in layers), or loose fibres. These are secured between two adjacent fabrics to form a composite specimen.
  • Testing Procedure: Includes continuous milling for one hour in acid solution, rinsing, drying below 60 °C, and evaluation against grey scales.
  • Assessment: Colour fastness results are rated numerically according to grey scale standards, indicating the degree of colour change in the specimen and staining on adjacent fabrics.
  • Reporting: Test reports must include sample identification, test standard version, and numerical ratings for colour change and staining for each adjacent fabric type.

Applications

  • Textile Industry: Ensures textiles maintain colour integrity when exposed to acidic conditions during processing, such as felting in hat-making.
  • Quality Control: Provides manufacturers and laboratories with a standardized, reproducible method to evaluate and certify colour fastness properties of textile products.
  • Product Development: Helps designers and engineers select suitable fibres and dyes with proven resistance to acid-felting, improving product longevity.
  • Compliance and Certification: Supports compliance with international textile testing regulations and facilitates market acceptance of textile products.

  • ISO 105-A03: Grey scale for assessing staining on adjacent fabrics.
  • ISO 105-F:1985: Defines standard adjacent fabrics used in colour fastness tests.

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 l Q5-El4 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISOnC 38, Textiles, Subcommittee SC 1, Tests for colo~ed textiles and
colorants.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition
(ISO 105-E14:1987), 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 “1.
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-AO1 a
