AATCC Test Method 88C-2018te, Crease Retention in Fabrics after Home Laundering
Technically equivalent to ISO 7769.
1. Purpose and Scope
1.1 This test method is intended to determine the retention of pressed-in creases in fabrics after being subjected to home laundering procedures. Several washing and drying procedures provide standard parameters to represent common home care options.
1.2 Creases in any washable fabric (woven, knitted or nonwoven) may be evaluated for retention using this method.
1.3 Techniques for creasing are not outlined, since the purpose is to evaluate creases as they will be supplied from manufacturing or as ready for use. Furthermore, creasing techniques would be controlled by fabric properties.
