BS EN ISO 105-A01:1996 is a standard that belongs to the ISO 105 series of international standards for textiles. Specifically, it is titled "Textiles - Tests for colour fastness - Part A01: General principles of testing."
This standard provides general principles and guidelines for testing the colorfastness of textiles when subjected to various conditions, such as exposure to light, water, perspiration, and other environmental factors. The purpose of these tests is to assess the ability of a textile material to retain its color without fading or running during its intended use or under specific circumstances.
The ISO 105 series covers various parts, each dealing with specific test methods for colorfastness evaluation under different conditions. ISO 105-A01 sets the foundation by outlining general principles that apply across the entire series. Other parts of the ISO 105 series focus on particular aspects of colorfastness testing, such as ISO 105-A02 (lightfastness), ISO 105-A03 (alkali and acid perspiration), ISO 105-A04 (chlorinated water), and so on.
It's important to note that standards can be subject to updates and revisions over time. To ensure you have the most current and accurate information, it's advisable to check the latest version of the standard from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) or your country's national standards body.
