AATCC Manual of International Test Methods and Procedures/2023 AATCC TM188-2010e3(2017)e 375
Developed in 2000 by AATCC Commit-
tee RA60; editorially revised and reaf-
firmed 2001, 2008; reaffirmed 2002,
2017; revised 2003, 2010; editorially re-
vised 2004, 2012, 2013, 2016, 2019.
1. Purpose and Scope
1.1 This test method is used to deter-
mine the colorfastness to sodium hy-
pochlorite bleach, commonly called
“chlorine bleach,” in home laundering of
textiles which are expected to withstand
frequent laundering.
1.2 Results of this test method may be
used in combination with other testing for
establishing care instructions (see 5.1, 9.6
and 12.8).
1.3 If a chlorine bleach contains ingre-
dients other than the sodium hypochlo-
rite, it is the total effect of these chemi-
cals on the color change that is being
evaluated.
1.4 This test method is designed for
home laundering devices. An accelerated
colorfastness test simulating multiple home
laundering (including those with sodium
hypochlorite) is described in AATCC
TM61, Test Method for Colorfastness to
Laundering: Accelerated. There is no
known correlation between those sections
of AATCC TM61 and this method.
2. Principle
2.1 Specimens are laundered under ap-
propriate conditions of temperature, de-
tergent solution, chlorine bleach solution
and abrasive action for five home laun-
dering cycles. The laundered specimens
are evaluated for color change.
3. Terminology
3.1 bleach, n.—in home laundering, a
product that will clean, whiten, brighten
and aid in the removal of soils and stains
from textile materials by oxidation that is
inclusive of chlorine and non-chlorine
products.
3.2 care instructions, n.—in textiles, a
series of directions describing which care
practices should refurbish a product with-
out adverse effects and warning of those
care practices expected to have a harmful
effect (see 12.1).
3.3 colorfastness, n.—the resistance of
a material to change in any of its color
characteristics, to transfer of its colo-
rant(s) to adjacent materials or both, as a
result of the exposure of the material to
any environment that might be encoun-
tered during the processing, testing, stor-
age or use of the materials.
3.4 laundering, n.—of textile materi-
als, a process intended to remove soil
and/or stains by treatment (washing) with
an aqueous detergent solution and nor-
mally including subsequent rinsing, ex-
tracting and drying.
3.5 sodium hypochlorite bleach, n.—
4-6% solution of sodium hypochlorite
(NaOCl), pH 9.8-12.8, commonly called
“chlorine bleach.”
4. Safety Precautions
NOTE: These safety precautions are
for information purposes only. The pre-
cautions are ancillary to the testing proce-
dures and are not intended to be all inclu-
sive. It is the users responsibility to use
safe and proper techniques in handling
materials in this test method. Manufac-
turers MUST be consulted for specific
details such as material safety data sheets
and other manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions. All OSHA standards and rules
must also be consulted and followed.
4.1 Good laboratory practices should
be followed. Wear safety glasses in all
laboratory areas.
4.2 Manufacturers safety recommen-
dations should be followed when operat-
ing laboratory testing equipment.
4.3 The 1993 AATCC Standard Refer-
ence Detergent WOB and the 2003
AATCC Standard Reference Liquid De-
tergent WOB may cause irritation. Care
should be taken to prevent exposure to
skin and eyes.
4.4 All chemicals should be handled
with care.
4.5 In preparing, dispensing and han-
dling bleach and detergent, use chemical
goggles or face shield, impervious gloves
and an impervious apron.
4.6 If concentrated sulfuric acid is di-
luted to prepare the 10% acid (see 14.8.1
and 14.8.3), use chemical goggles or face
shield, impervious gloves and an imper-
vious apron. Concentrated acids should
be handled only in an adequately venti-
lated hood. CAUTION: Always add acid
to water.
4.7 An eyewash/safety shower should
be located nearby and an organic vapor
respirator should be available for emer-
gency use.
4.8 Exposure to chemicals used in this
procedure must be controlled at or below
levels set by governmental authorities
(e.g., Occupational Safety and Health
Administration’s [OSHA] permissible
exposure limits [PEL] as found in 29
CFR 1910.1000; see web site:
www.osha.gov for latest version). In addi-
tion, the American Conference of Govern-
mental Industrial Hygienist (ACGIH)
Threshold Limit Values (TLVs) com-
prised of time weighted averages (TLV-
TWA), short term exposure limits (TLV-
STEL) and ceiling limits (TLV-C) are
recommended as a general guide for air
contaminant exposure which should be
met (see 14.1).
5. Uses and Limitations
5.1 Specimens may be tested using
these procedures, but without sodium hy-
pochlorite bleach, to determine the effect
of laundering with water and/or water and
detergent alone (see 9.6 and 12.8). To test
for colorfastness to non-chlorine bleach,
see AATCC TM172, Colorfastness to
Powdered Non-Chlorine Bleach in Home
Laundering (see 14.2).
6. Apparatus and Materials (see 14.3)
6.1 Automatic washing machine (see
14.4).
6.2 Automatic tumble dryer (see 14.5).
6.3 Conditioning/drying racks with
pull-out screens or perforated shelves
(see 14.6).
6.4 Ballast of 920 × 920 mm (± 30 mm)
hemmed pieces of cloth. Choose one of
the following.
6.4.1 Ballast type 1, bleached cotton
sheeting.
6.4.2 Wash load ballast type 3, 50/50
polyester/cotton plain weave.
6.5 1993 AATCC Standard Reference
Detergent WOB or 2003 AATCC Stan-
dard Reference Liquid Detergent WOB
(see 14.7).

tion).
7.4 Potassium iodide, KI, (10% solu-
tion).
7.5 Sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3, (0.1N).
8. Test Specimens
8.1 Use one specimen weighing 110.0
± 10.0 g from a sample. If a garment or
textile item (towel, bed sheet, etc.) is to
be used as a specimen, weigh the entire
item to 0.1 g. If the garment weight ex-
ceeds the specified load weight of 1.8 kg,
the total weight is to be included in the
report. See 9.2.3 for exact weight specifi-
cations on load.
9. Procedure
9.1 Table I summarizes washing and
drying conditions. Information on the
machine and laundering conditions may
be found in the AATCC LP1 (see 14.10).
9.2 Washing.
9.2.1 Fill the washer with the specified
water volume at the selected water tem-
perature using the normal cycle setting.
Measure and record the water hardness in
any test.
9.2.2 Add 66 ± 1 g of 1993 AATCC
Standard Reference Detergent WOB or
100 ± 1 g of 2003 AATCC Standard Ref-
erence Liquid Detergent WOB (see 6.5).
Add 240 ± 5 mL (1 cup) of sodium hy-
pochlorite bleach or the amount recom-
mended by the manufacturer for a full
load of laundry. Run the washer for 2 min
to ensure proper mixing of liquor.
9.2.3 Add enough ballast to the speci-
men to make a 1.8 ± 0.1 kg load. Set the
washer on the cycle selected for washing
and set the wash timer (see Table I and
9.1). Start the agitation and indepen-
dently time the wash for reproducible re-
sults. When the desired wash time is
complete, stop washer and advance the
dial to the end of the wash cycle. Restart
washer to rinse, drain and spin the load.
9.2.4 For the specimen to be dried by
procedures A, B or D, allow washing to
proceed through the rinse and final spin
cycle. Remove test specimens immedi-
ately after the final spin cycle, separate
any tangled pieces, taking care to mini-
mize distortion, and dry by procedures A,
B or D [see Table I and AATCC LP1 (see
9.1)].
9.2.5 For the specimen to be dried by
procedure C, Drip Dry, stop the washer at
the end of the final rinse cycle just before
the water begins to drain. Remove the
specimens soaking wet.
9.3 Drying.
9.3.1 (A) Tumble Dry. Place the
washed load (test specimens and ballast)
in the tumble dryer, set on the cycle
which generates the correct exhaust tem-
peratures as specified in AATCC LP1
(see 9.1). For fabrics that are heat sensi-
tive, lower temperatures consistent with
producers recommendation are required
and must be reported. Operate the dryer
until the total load is dry. Remove the
load immediately after the machine stops.
9.3.2 (B) Line Dry. Hang each speci-
men by two corners with the fabric length
in the vertical direction. Allow the test
specimens to hang in still air at room
temperature until dry.
9.3.3 (C) Drip Dry. Hang each drip-
ping wet specimen by two corners, with
the fabric length in the vertical direction.
Allow specimens to hang in still air at
room temperature until dry.
9.3.4 (D) Screen Dry. Spread each
specimen on a horizontal screen or perfo-
rated surface, removing wrinkles but not
distorting or stretching and allow to dry
in still air at room temperature.
9.4 Repeat 9.2 and 9.3 for a total of
five launderings or to an end point of
color change (see 14.2).
9.5 On completion of the fifth laundry
cycle, (or after each cycle where end
point criteria are to be met), condition the
specimens for at least 4 h by laying each
specimen separately on the screen or
perforated shelf of a conditioning rack at
an atmosphere of 21 ± 2°C (70 ± 4°F)
and 65 ± 5% RH before evaluating color
change.
9.6 If this test method is to be used to
develop care instructions, specimens may
also have to undergo further testing. Non-
chlorine bleach sensitivity may need to
be tested using AATCC TM172. To sep-
arate the effects of components such as
hardness, pH or bleach content (see 5.1,
12.8 and ASTM D3938, Standard Guide
for Determining or Confirming Care In-
structions for Apparel and Other Textile
Products), this method with detergent
only and/or this method using water only
may be used.
10. Evaluation
10.1 Visual evaluation.
10.1.1 Using an unwashed specimen
from the sample as a control, rate the
color change of the test specimen in at
least three places on the specimen or
three times in one place using the Gray
Scale for Color Change (AATCC EP1),
or using AATCC EP7, Instrumental As-
sessment of the Change in Color of a Test
Specimen, and record the numerical rat-
ing that corresponds to the appropriate
one on the Gray Scale.
10.1.2 Ratings may be made compared
to an unexposed control cut from the test
sample or compared to a laundered con-
trol specimen of known fastness.
10.2 Instrumental evaluation.
10.2.1 Instrumental measurements
comparing unexposed and exposed,
(washed), specimen or garments may be
used (see AATCC EP6, Instrumental
Color Measurement, AATCC EP7, and
AATCC TM173, Test Method for Calcu-
lation of Small Color Differences for Ac-
ceptability).
11. Interpretation of Results
11.1 This test is a satisfactory end use
test for demonstrating the effect of the
1993 AATCC Standard Reference Deter-
gent WOB or the 2003 AATCC Standard
Reference Liquid Detergent WOB and
chlorine bleach on textile materials in
home laundering. The color change re-
sults will establish a level of performance
that can be used to prepare care instruc-
tions (see 14.9 and ASTM D3938).
11.2 If a significant color change is ob-
served, an untreated duplicate sample
should be retested using this method with
water only and/or by following AATCC
TM172 (see 9.6).
12. Report
12.1 Report the numerical average
color change grade for each specimen
tested.
12.2 Report washing conditions (Ara-
bic and Roman Numerals) and drying
conditions (capital letter from Table I;
[i.e., (1) IIIA (iii)] means NORMAL cy-
cle, wash water temperature of 41 ± 3°C,
tumble dry [permanent press]).
12.3 Report the type and amount of de-
tergent used.
12.4 Report the brand, sodium hy-
pochlorite activity, and amount of the
chlorine bleach used.
12.5 Report the available chlorine con-
tent delivered to the wash by the dosage

(see 14.8.3).
12.6 Report the weight of fabric speci-
men or garment tested, if other than
found in 8.1.
12.7 Report the number of wash cycles
tested, if other than 5.
12.8 Report water hardness.
12.9 If the information gained through
this testing is to be used in establishing
care instructions, results of washing us-
ing detergent and powdered non-chlorine
bleach, detergent alone or water alone
may have to be included (see 5.1 and 9.6).
13. Precision and Bias
13.1 Precision.
13.1.1 In 2001 a single laboratory
study was performed. The same operator
tested all samples.
13.1.2 Samples tested consisted of
three fabrics dyed with three different
dyes. Washing conditions tested con-
sisted of 60°C (140°F) and 49°C (120°F)
wash temperatures. Both tests used 200
ppm levels of sodium hypochlorite. Each
sample was evaluated instrumentally
three times and averages were calculated.
13.1.3 Within-laboratory Standard
Errors and Critical Differences are shown
in Table II. Data are on file at the
AATCC Technical Center.
13.2 Bias. The colorfastness to chlo-
rine bleach in home laundering can be de-
fined only in terms of a test method.
There is no independent method for de-
termining the true value. As a means of
estimating this property, the method has
no known bias.

14.2 While the design of this method is to
expose specimens to 5 cycles of washing and
drying, the number of cycles may be short-
ened or lengthened if the end point is a spe-
cific grade for color change.

14.8 Use sodium hypochlorite bleach pur-
chased within the last six months. Keep the
bleach sealed in an airtight container and in a
cool, dry place.
14.8.1 To confirm the sodium hypochlorite
bleach’s activity, weigh 2.00 g sodium hy-
pochlorite into an Erlenmeyer flask and dilute
to 50 mL with deionized water. Add 10 mL of
10% sulfuric acid and 10 mL of 10% potas-
sium iodide. Titrate with 0.1N sodium thiosul-
fate until colorless.
Calculation:
% sodium hypochlorite =
The factor 0.03722 is derived by multiplying
the molecular weight of NaOCl (74.45 g/mol)
by 0.001 (mL to L conversion) and dividing
by 2 (mols of thiosulfate per hypochlorite).
14.8.2 Oxidizing power of sodium hy-
pochlorite is typically expressed in terms of
available chlorine, the equivalent amount of
diatomic chlorine present. A 5.25% NaOCl so-
lution contains 50,000 ppm available chlorine.

10% potassium iodide. Titrate with 0.01N so-
dium thiosulfate until colorless.
Calculation:

14.10 Laundering temperatures and other
parameters listed in AATCC LP1 may not be
the same as those listed in various test meth-
ods. Parameters in AATCC LP1 are updated
periodically to reflect consumer experience,
taking into account current technology and
regulations regarding home water heater tem-
peratures, particularly in the United States.
Typically, test method committees pursue a
deliberate effort to maintain the same test
method conditions over a long period of time
in order to produce comparable results over
time. Additionally, significant changes may
invalidate precision data developed using the
original conditions.
Temperatures listed in AATCC test meth-
ods were established at the time the methods
were developed or revised, and closely mirror
the temperature ranges specified in 16 CFR
Part 423 for care labels. It should also be
noted that AATCC test methods were devel-
oped using traditional top loading washing
machines. Specified water level, detergent,
and other details are not applicable to high ef-
ficiency top loading or front loading ma-
chines. New, commercially available home
laundering machines may have to be modified
by the user to meet the specifications in vari-
ous test methods. All test reports should indi-
cate the exact testing conditions, and any
modification of the standard method, includ-
ing use of AATCC LP1 parameters. Results of
tests performed with different conditions may
not be comparable.
