Full Description

This method describes a procedure for subjecting textile materials to the action of solvents for the ultimate determination, by the appropriate test method, of the effect of such a treatment on the permanence of finishes added to improve such functional properties as resistance to water, flame, insect attack, etc.

The procedure assesses the solubility of the finish in the solvent. It is not intended to simulate the overall effect of a full-scale commercial dry cleaning operation.

This method may require the use of materials and/or equipment that could be hazardous. This document does not purport to address all the safety aspects associated with its use. Anyone using this method has the responsibility to consult the appropriate authorities and to establish appropriate health and safety practices in conjunction with any existing applicable regulatory requirements prior to its use.
