Free Webinar: Weathering and Lightfastness Testing of Textiles

This webinar will be presented in English by Q-Lab Corporation

Lightfastness testing is used widely to evaluate the ability of a textile to resist color change resulting from exposure to light. Exposure to light, temperature, and humidity can cause fading and/or color change in colored textile materials. These phenomena are the result of photo-chemical processes of absorbed ultraviolet (UV) and visible light, and secondary effects caused by temperature and humidity.

In this webinar, we will cover:

• Basics of weathering and lightfastness testing
• The use of reference materials like blue wool and red azoic dye
• Major textile lightfastness test standards like ISO 105-B02 and AATCC TM 16
• Selection of test architecture and test type based on materials and research goals
