TEXTILES - QUANTITATIVE CHEMICAL ANALYSIS - PART 10: MIXTURES OF TRIACETATE OR POLYLACTIDE AND CERTAIN OTHER FIBRES (METHOD USING DICHLOROMETHANE) (FIRST REVISION) (ISO 1833-10:2006, IDT)
This Malaysian Standard specifies a method, using dichloromethane, to determine the percentage of triacetate, after removal of non-fibrous matter, in textiles made of binary mixtures of; triacetate or polylactide; and wool, regenerated protein, cotton (scoured, kiered, or bleached), viscose, cupro, modal, polyamide, polyester, acrylic and glass fibres.
Triacetate fibres which have received a finish leading to partial hydrolysis cease to be completely soluble in the reagent. In such cases, this method is not applicable.
