Textiles — Quantitative chemical analysis — Part 12: Mixtures of acrylic, certain modacrylics, certain chlorofibres, certain elastanes and certain other fibres (method using dimethylformamide)

Scope

ISO 1833-12:2006 specifies a method, using dimethylformamide, to determine the percentage of acrylic, modacrylic, chlorofibre or elastane, after removal of non-fibrous matter, in textiles made of binary mixtures of acrylic, certain modacrylics, certain chlorofibres, certain elastanes and animal fibres, cotton (scoured, kiered or bleached), viscose, cupro, modal, polyamide, polyester or glass fibres.
It is applicable to animal hair, wool and silk dyed with pre-metallized dyes, but not to those dyed with after-chrome dyes.
