ISO 105-B06 Xenon Arc Lamp Testing with Daylight Filter for Lightfastness Laboratory Testing Service: A Comprehensive Guide

As a leading laboratory testing service provider, Eurolab offers expert analysis and evaluation of materials for lightfastness using the ISO 105-B06 Xenon Arc Lamp Testing with Daylight Filter method. This article provides an in-depth overview of the standard, its requirements, and the benefits of performing this test.

ISO 105-B06 is a widely accepted international standard for evaluating the lightfastness of materials using Xenon Arc Lamp testing with a Daylight Filter. The standard is published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and is applicable to various industries, including textiles, plastics, coatings, and more.

The standard specifies the conditions for conducting the test, including the type of lamp used, the wavelength range, and the temperature and humidity levels in the testing environment. It also provides guidelines for sample preparation, measurement, and analysis procedures.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The ISO 105-B06 standard is widely adopted by regulatory bodies around the world, including the European Unions (EU) Technical Regulations for Textiles and Plastics. Compliance with this standard is often a mandatory requirement for products entering certain markets or industries.

In addition to EU regulations, various national standards also reference ISO 105-B06, such as:

  • ASTM D4303-14: Standard Practice for Testing Water Resistance of Textile Fabrics

  • EN ISO 105-B06:1997: Textiles - Tests for colour fastness - Colour fastness to daylight (using the Xenon lamp)

  • TSE LISO 105-B06:2018: Textiles - Tests for color fastness - Color fastness to daylight (using the Xenon lamp)

    • Standard Development Organizations and Role

    The ISO 105-B06 standard is developed by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, which focuses on textiles. This committee brings together experts from various countries and industries to develop and maintain standards related to textile testing.

    Standard development organizations play a crucial role in ensuring that standards are up-to-date, relevant, and meet the needs of industry stakeholders. They also facilitate collaboration among stakeholders, including manufacturers, users, and regulatory bodies.

    International and National Standards

    ISO 105-B06 is part of a larger family of ISO standards related to textile testing. Some key international standards include:

  • ISO 17025:2018 - General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories

  • ISO/IEC 17065:2012 - Conformity assessment - Requirements for bodies certifying products, processes, and services

    • National standards may also reference or adopt specific aspects of ISO 105-B06. For example:

  • Japan: JIS L0841:2007 (Textiles - Tests for colour fastness - Colour fastness to daylight)

  • China: GB/T 16719-2018 (Textiles - Tests for color fastness - Color fastness to daylight)

    • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with ISO 105-B06 is often mandatory or recommended by regulatory bodies, industry associations, and customers. Failure to comply may result in:

  • Rejection of products

  • Withdrawal of certifications or licenses

  • Loss of business opportunities

  • Reputation damage

    • Industries that commonly require lightfastness testing include textiles, plastics, coatings, and more.

    Standard Evolution and Updates

    Standards evolve over time as technology advances, new issues arise, or industry needs change. Regular updates ensure standards remain relevant and effective.

    Eurolab stays up-to-date with the latest developments in standardization, ensuring our laboratory testing services are aligned with evolving requirements.
