Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The invention relates to the field of textile performance testing after ironing, in particular to a method for evaluating the comprehensive performance of textiles after ironing by using a rotary ironing instrument. [Background Technology]

[0002] At present, the performance test of textiles after ironing mainly adopts manual simulation of ironing with a household iron or the evaluation after ironing by static pressure application of a fixed heating plate using a flat heating device.

[0003] The main issues with using a household iron to simulate manual ironing are poor reproducibility, difficulty standardizing pressure and speed between different operators, and failure to account for potential color contamination. Flat-plate heating devices, due to their size limitations, are difficult to evaluate for dimensional stability. Furthermore, flat-plate heating devices employ a fixed, static pressure mechanism, which doesn't align with the actual ironing process.

[0004] In general, the current post-ironing evaluation testing technology is difficult to meet the needs of modern textile quality control. [Summary of the invention]

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a method for evaluating the comprehensive performance of textiles after ironing using a rotary ironing instrument, so as to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, a method for evaluating the comprehensive performance of textiles after ironing using a rotary ironing instrument is designed, comprising the following steps:

[0007] 1) After the textile has been conditioned in a temperature and humidity environment to reach equilibrium, the textile is cut into the specified size and the original marking points of the specified size are marked on the textile. The dimensions between the original marking points of the original sample are measured and recorded as the original dimensions of the textile;

[0008] 2) The sample and the standard polyester single fiber are then ironed in a rotary ironing machine at a set temperature, and the humidity is adjusted to equilibrium again under the specified temperature and humidity conditions;

[0009] 3) Finally, the original sample and the standard polyester monofilament interlining were compared to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the changes in the textile and interlining after ironing.

[0010] Furthermore, in step 1), the temperature and humidity controlled environment is: temperature 20°C + / - 2°C, relative humidity 65 + / - 4%.

[0011] Furthermore, in step 2), when selecting the temperature of the rotary ironing device, it is determined according to the ironing label in the textile maintenance label, as shown in the following table,

[0012] Iron-on labels Device selection Temperature range Low temperature ironing . 120℃+ / -2℃ Medium-temperature ironing .. 150℃+ / -2℃ High temperature ironing ... 190℃+ / -2℃ No mention of ironing ... 190℃+ / -2℃

[0013] Furthermore, in step 3), the comprehensive evaluation includes: measuring and recording the dimensions between the original marked points of the sample after ironing again in accordance with the regulations as the dimensions of the textile after ironing, and finally calculating the dimensional change rate of the sample before and after ironing according to the prescribed formula; using a color change gray card to evaluate the color change of the textile; and using a staining gray card to evaluate the staining of the polyester single fiber interlining.

[0014] Furthermore, the specific testing steps of the present invention are as follows:

[0015] (1) Preparation of the sample: Spread the sample on a horizontal surface in an environment with a temperature of 20℃+ / -2℃ and a relative humidity of 65+ / -4% for at least 16 hours, then cut it into the specified size according to the sample template. Mark the points according to the sample template with a marker pen. Use a steel ruler to measure the three sets of dimensions of the sample in the longitudinal and latitudinal directions, record them as J1, J2, J3; W1, W2, W3, with an accuracy of 1 mm.

[0016] (2) Start the rotary ironing machine and set the temperature of the ironing machine according to the ironing label or the temperature specified by the customer;

[0017] Set the rotating drum speed to 2 meters per minute, and press the foot pedal to preheat the iron for 1 minute;

[0018] (3) Without releasing the foot pedal, feed the sample to be tested face up along the feed plate into the rotary ironing machine, then take it back from under the ironing cylinder, release the foot pedal, remove the sample and immediately move the test sample and the original sample to the rating box under the D65 light source, use the ISO 105A02 gray scale for color change to evaluate the color change of the original sample, and use the ISO 105A03 gray scale for color transfer to evaluate the color transfer of the backing;

[0019] (4) The sample is then placed in an environment with a temperature of 20°C + / - 2°C and a relative humidity of 65 + / - 4% for at least 4 hours. The test sample and the original sample are moved to a rating box under a D65 light source. The color change of the original sample is evaluated using the ISO 105A02 gray scale for color change, and the color change of the backing is evaluated using the ISO 105A03 gray scale for color transfer.

[0020] (5) Measure the three sets of dimensions in the warp and weft directions of the sample after the test, which correspond to the dimensions before the test, and are recorded as J1', J2', J3'; W1', W2', W3'; calculate the warp and weft dimension change rate according to the formula DC = {(dimensions after the test - dimensions before the test) / dimensions before the test} * 100%, and the dimension change rate is accurate to + / - 0.1%; calculate the average value of the three sets of dimension change rates in the warp and weft directions as the dimension change rate in the warp and weft directions, respectively, and the dimension change rate is accurate to + / - 0.1%.

[0021] Furthermore, the evaluation of the test results of the present invention is:

[0022] ① Dimensional change rate: If the size is woven, it is qualified if the size is within + / -1%, otherwise it is unqualified; if the size is knitted, it is qualified if the size is within + / -3%, otherwise it is unqualified;

[0023] ② The original sample is qualified if the color change reaches ISO 105A02 color change gray card level 4 or above; below level 4 is unqualified;

[0024] ③ If the staining of the lining reaches level 3-4 or above on the ISO 105A03 Grey Scale for Staining, it is considered qualified; if it is below level 3-4, it is considered unqualified;

[0025] ④ If any one of the items ①-③ is unqualified, the test result will be evaluated as unqualified; if the results of items ①-③ are all qualified, the test result will be evaluated as qualified.

[0026] Furthermore, after step (1), the method further includes: sewing a standard polyester single fiber lining with non-fluorescent polyester thread to the center of the front of the sample, and sewing along the two short sides of the standard polyester single fiber lining to keep the lining flat; if multiple colors are involved, multiple pieces of standard cotton single fiber lining are used to ensure contact with all colors.

[0027] Furthermore, the sample template in step (1) is as follows: the outer frame size is 380mm*380mm, the length between the two marking points is 250mm, and the distance from the edge is greater than 50mm.

[0028] Furthermore, the rotary ironing machine includes a sample feeding rack, a feeding plate, a rotating drum, a heating plate, a foot pedal and a sample recovery platform after ironing. The surface of the rotating drum is tightly covered with a wool felt pad, and its speed is set at 2 meters + / - 0.5 meters per minute. The heating plate adopts a heating plate that can optionally control the ironing temperature with an accuracy of + / - 2°C. The foot pedal can control the heating plate to contact and release the rotating drum.

[0029] Furthermore, the single fiber interlining is a standard polyester interlining with a size of (100+ / -2) mm*(40+ / -2) mm.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0031] (1) The present invention can precisely control the comprehensive contact scenarios of ironing temperature, pressure, and speed during the ironing process, thereby improving the accuracy and reproducibility of the test;

[0032] (2) The evaluation dimensions of the present invention are more comprehensive, and the dimensional change rate, discoloration, and staining are evaluated simultaneously, and the ratings are divided into "immediate" and "secondary humidity adjustment" stages, covering the entire ironing damage;

[0033] (3) The introduction of single-fiber polyester interlining staining of the present invention accurately locates the sublimation of disperse dyes during the ironing process, which is targeted;

[0034] In summary, the present invention breaks through the traditional static single-indicator testing mode and establishes a dynamic, multi-dimensional, standardized comprehensive evaluation system, which improves the accuracy, reproducibility and practicality of the detection, and improves the scientific nature of the evaluation of textile ironing performance, and is worthy of promotion and application.
