TXD 28

1 SCOPE

1.1 This standard prescribes a method for determination of dimensional changes on washing of natural silk fabrics.

1.2 The method is intended only for the assessment of dimensional changes undergone by fabrics subjected to a single washing treatment. When it is desired to determine the amount of progressive dimensional changes, the test specimens should be washed repeatedly and the amount of dimensional change of the washed specimens and the number of washing cycles to which the specimen has been subjected, be indicated clearly in the report.
