Textile goods are the closest thing to our body. The clothes we wear are processed and synthesized with textile fabrics. Different textile fabrics have different properties, and mastering the properties of each fabric can help us better choose fabrics; different textile fabrics will also have different applications, and may differ greatly in the scope of clothing design. And we have a set of testing methods for each kind of different textile goods, which can help us test the performance of different fabrics.

Textile testing

Textile testing is to use some methods to detect textile fabrics. Generally, we can divide the testing methods into physical testing and chemical testing. Physical testing is to measure the physical quantity of fabrics by some equipment or instruments, and to determine the physical properties and quality of fabrics through collation and analysis; while chemical testing is to use some chemical testing technology and equipment to detect textiles, mainly to detect the chemical properties and chemical properties of textiles, and to analyze their chemical composition. The composition and content of textile fabrics can be used to determine the properties of textile fabrics. However, there are certain testing standards for textile testing. Next, I will introduce them to my friends.

Textile testing standards

The commonly used international standards for textile testing are as follows:

GB18401-2003 National Technical Specification for Basic Safety of Textile Products

DIN German Standards Society

AATCC American Association of Textile Dyeing and Chemicals

AS Australian Standards Association

ASTM American Testing Materials Association

JIS Japan Industrial Association

US CPSC Consumer Product Safety Commission

FZ China Textile Industry Association

ISO International Organization for Standardization

IWS International Wool Bureau

BS British Standards Association

IDFB International Down and Feather Bureau

CAN Canadian Standards Committee

In China, clothing and textiles that fail to meet the GB18401-2003 national standards for basic safety technology of textile products are not marketable.
