ASTM D4607 Identification of Synthetic Fibers by Solubility: Eurolabs Laboratory Testing Service

The ASTM D4607 Identification of Synthetic Fibers by Solubility is a widely recognized standard for the identification and characterization of synthetic fibers. This standard, published by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), provides a comprehensive methodology for identifying synthetic fibers based on their solubility properties.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The ASTM D4607 standard is governed by various international and national standards, including ISO 9073, EN 13034, TSE 2305, and others. These standards establish the requirements for laboratory testing and certification of synthetic fibers. The legal and regulatory framework surrounding this testing service includes compliance with industry-specific regulations, such as those related to textile, apparel, and consumer products.

International and National Standards

The ASTM D4607 standard is based on several international and national standards:

  • ISO 9073: Textiles - Determination of the resistance to degradation of certain plastics materials when exposed to light

  • EN 13034: Textiles - Determination of the solubility of synthetic fibres in solvents

  • TSE 2305: Textile fibers - Solubility test for synthetic fibers

    • These standards provide a framework for laboratory testing and certification, ensuring that synthetic fibers meet specific requirements.

    Standard Development Organizations

    The development and maintenance of these standards are overseen by standard development organizations (SDOs), such as:

  • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

  • European Committee for Standardization (CEN)
