1.1 This standard specifies domestic washing and drying procedures for textile testing. This standard is applicable to domestic washing and drying of textile fabrics, garments or other textile articles.
1.2 Provision is made for:
a) Ten different washing procedures based on the use of a horizontal drum, front-loading type of machine (Type A washer), or
b) Eleven washing procedures based on the use of a top-loading agitator type of machine (Type B washer).
Two results obtained with two types of machine may not be comparable.
1.3 Each washing procedure represents a single domestic wash.
1.4 This standard also specifies six drying procedures:
A——Line dry
B——Drip dry
C——Flat dry
D——Flat press
E——Tumble dry
F——Oven dry
1.5 A complete test consists of a washing and drying procedure.
