The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 105-E16 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles, Subcommittee SC 1, Tests for coloured textiles and colorants. ISO 105 was previously published in 13 “parts”, each designated by a letter (e.g. “Part A”), with publication date between 1978 and 1985. Each part contained a series of “sections”, each designated by the respective past letter and by a two-digit serial number (e.g. “Section A01”). These sections are now being republished as separate documents, themselves designated “parts” but retaining their earlier alphanumeric designations. A complete list of these parts is given in ISO 105-A01.

This method differs from ISO 105-E07 in that a larger amount of water is used and the water is applied under pressure for a longer period of time. The general principles of testing described in ISO 105-A01 should be understood before using this part of ISO 105.

The method is suitable for determining the resistance of a furniture fabric's colour to water spotting or staining. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

After drying the specimen, the change in colour and the staining onto white or lighter areas of the specimens are assessed using the grey scales. 4 Reagents 4.1 Deionized or distilled water, (50 ± 2) °C, Grade 3 water complying with ISO 3696.

The tube has an inside diameter of (94 ± 2) mm, a wall thickness of (3 ± 0,5) mm and an approximate height of 50 mm (see Figure 1). 5.2 Load ring. The load ring should be able to rest on top of the cylinder. The combined weight of the ring and the cylindrical tube shall be (1,9 ± 0,1) kg (see Figure 1). 5.3 Polyurethane pad, consisting of undyed polyurethane with open pores. The pad has an approximate density of 30 kg/m3, an approximate thickness of 30 mm, and a minimum size of 500 mm × 500 mm. 5.4 Plastic film, undyed, of polyethylene of a minimum size of 500 mm × 500 mm. 5.5 Drying rack, at least 500 mm × 500 mm in size. The drying rack is made from a stainless steel or plastic coated metal grid with a mesh width of about 5 mm and positioned 20 mm above table surface. This position can, for example, be achieved by folding the grid ends downwards at a 90° angle. 5.6 Grey scales or spectrophotometer, for assessing changes in colour and staining. Use ISO 105-A02 and ISO 105-A03 for the grey scales, or a spectrophotometer, complying with ISO 105-A04 and ISO 105-A05. 6 Test specimens From the test sample, cut at least two test specimens, representative of all of the colours in the sample, each measuring at least 500 mm × 500 mm. If all the colours of the sample do not appear within a circular area slightly smaller than the area covered by the cylindrical tube of the test apparatus, cut enough specimens to represent all the colours. Cut each test specimen so that the colours under test appear in the centre of the test specimen. Before testing, carefully brush or vacuum the test specimens to remove all foreign particles and fibres and condition in the standard alternative atmosphere according to ISO 139, temperature of (23 ± 2) °C and a relative humidity of (50 ± 4) %. NOTE Undyed test specimens in their natural colours are treated in the same way as other coloured test specimens. 7 Test conditions Carry out the test at a room temperature of (23 ± 2) °C and a relative humidity of (50 ± 4) %. 8 Procedure 8.1 Place a plastic film (5.4) on a flat surface, then place the polyurethane pad (5.3) on the film and then place a test specimen on the pad with the design face up.

If the water is not absorbed after 30 min, carefully remove the water by means of a water suction appliance. Allow the test specimen to remain for further 5 min on the polyurethane pad on the plastic film. Removal of the water using the water suction appliance should take no longer than 5 min. 8.5 Place the specimen and the polyurethane pad without the plastic film on the drying rack. The surface of a pile material can be restored by carefully brushing the fabric surface while it is still damp. Allow the items to dry at room temperature until the specimen is dry. 8.6 Carry out the test (8.1 through 8.5) on at least two test specimens.

Evaluate all visible differences between the areas treated by water and the untreated areas. For plain-coloured test specimens, assess a) each test specimen in the centre of the tested area, and b) if required, each test specimen on the outer periphery of the tested area.

If applicable, a separate value shall be reported for each individual colour, and/or for edge and centre of the treated area.) e) any staining onto white or lighter areas, expressed in terms of a staining scale rating and/or instrumental assessment; f) notations of any other changes in the fabric's appearance; g) if the water has not been absorbed after 30 min and had to be removed; h) any deviations from this standard procedure.
