Ironing Sublimation Color Fastness Tester

What’s wrong?

Do you encounter such kind of situation in your daily life?
Why it happened?
In the clothing industry, there is a saying that "Three parts depend on sewing, while seven parts depend on ironing". After ironing, a piece of clothing can be more flat and straight, which is not only more comfortable to wear, but also can show a person's spiritual outlook.
To make a garment flat, ironing is usually done at a higher temperature than when the garment was dyed, but the color of the garment changes after ironing or the color of the garment shifts to other fabrics during ironing.
To avoid these conditions, we need to test the ironing Sublimation Color Fastness for fabric before it be made into clothing
Question1:What is Ironing Sublimation Color Fastness
Ironing Sublimation Color Fastness Through dry pressing, wet pressing and wet pressing test, the color change of fabric under different ironing conditions and the dyeing condition of dyes were simulated
Question2: What is the test methods?
1 ) GB/T 6152-1997
2）ISO 105－X11:1994
3 ) AATCC 133-2013

Tips on ironing in our daily life
1. Before ironing, make sure you know what fabrics are made of. Some fabrics can not stand high temperatures, while others such as natural fibers silk and wool can not and cotton and linen will do.
2. For some special fabrics, ironing directly on the surface of the fabric will make the fabric shiny and white. At this time, only a lining cloth or a fabric of the same texture should be covered on the surface of the fabric and then ironed, which will not happen.
3. Before ironing, it is better to spray the clothes evenly with water, and put the clothes in a plastic bag so that the moisture is evenly distributed and the clothes are better ironed.
4. Hang your ironed clothes in a ventilated area to dry for a while to evaporate the moisture, so that they stay flat and prevent mold.
