Textiles — Test method for determination of physical degradation rate of textile materials under simulated composting conditions in a laboratory — Scale test

Textiles - Méthode d'essai de détermination du taux de dégradation physique de matériaux textiles dans des conditions de compostage simulé lors d’un essai de laboratoire

Abstract / scope

This document specifies test methods for the measurement of the physical degradation of textile materials under the simulate composting conditions in a laboratory scale.
Degradation rates considered in this document are mechanical properties and surface area loss.
This document is not suitable for the assessment of degradation caused by heat(thermo-degradation) or light exposure(photo-degradation).
