Clothes washing machines and washer-dryers for household and similar use - Method for the determination of rinsing effectiveness by measurement of the surfactant content at textile materials

This Technical Specification provides a method for the evaluation of the rinsing effectiveness of household clothes washing machines, washer dryers and commercial washing machines. The amount of residual linear alkylbenzene sulfonate surfactant (LAS) extracted from the unstained test swatches of the strips used in the washing performance test is determined. This is accomplished by measuring the ultraviolet (UV) light absorbance at the wavelength particular to LAS, a key ingredient of the detergent. Assuming a fixed linear relationship between LAS amount and quantity of detergent mixture and using a concentration versus absorbance curve developed as part of this procedure, the absorbance values are then converted into detergent concentrations, which together with the test solution mass data, yields detergent quantities. This assumption is done, because in the frame of this test it is not possible to determine the exact amount of LAS involved, even in the concentration curves, but only the amount of detergent used. On the textiles, this linear relationship is not given, but it is nevertheless used to express the amount of LAS as determined by UV light absorbance measurements in terms of a detergent amount. Using a concentration versus absorbance curve developed as part of this procedure, the absorbance values can then be converted into detergent concentrations, which together with the test solution mass data, yields detergent quantities.

Machines à laver le linge et machines à laver et à sécher pour usages domestiques et analogues - Méthode pour la détermination de l'efficacité de rinçage par la mesure de la teneur en tensioactifs des matières textiles

La présente Spécification Technique fournit une méthode pour l'évaluation de l'efficacité de rinçage des machines à laver le linge à usage domestique, des machines lavantes-séchantes et des machines à laver à usage commercial. La quantité d'alkylbenzènesulfonate linéaire tensioactif (LAS) résiduel extraite à partir des pièces d'essai non salies des bandes utilisées pour l'essai d'aptitude à la fonction de lavage est déterminée, en mesurant l'absorbance de la lumière ultraviolette (UV) à la longueur d'onde spécifique du LAS, un ingrédient essentiel du détergent. En prenant pour hypothèse une relation linéaire fixe entre la quantité de LAS et la quantité de mélange détergent et en utilisant une concentration en fonction de la courbe d'absorbance déterminée dans le cadre de cette procédure, les valeurs d'absorbance sont ensuite converties en concentrations de détergent qui, combinées aux données relatives à la masse de la solution d'essai, indiquent les quantités de détergent. Cette hypothèse est admise, car il n'est pas possible dans le cadre de cet essai de déterminer la quantité exacte de LAS employée, même avec les courbes de concentration, mais uniquement la quantité de détergent utilisée. Sur les textiles, cette relation linéaire n'est pas indiquée, mais elle est néanmoins utilisée pour exprimer la quantité de LAS déterminée par les mesures d'absorbance de la lumière UV pour une quantité de détergent. En utilisant une concentration en fonction de la courbe d'absorbance déterminée dans le cadre de cette procédure, les valeurs d'absorbance peuvent ensuite être converties en concentrations de détergent qui, combinées aux données relatives à la masse de la solution d'essai, indiquent les quantités de détergent.

Pralni in pralno-sušilni stroji za gospodinjsko in podobno uporabo - Metoda za ugotavljanje učinkovitosti izpiranja z merjenjem tenzidov na tekstilu

Ta tehnična specifikacija ponuja metodo za vrednotenje učinkovitosti izpiranja gospodinjskih pralnih strojev, pralno-sušilnih strojev in komercialnih pralnih strojev. Določi se količina ostankov linearnega alkilbenzensulfonatnega tenzida (LAS), izluščenega iz nepobarvanih preskusnih vzorcev trakov, uporabljenih pri preskusu učinkovitosti pranja. To se doseže z merjenjem vpijanja ultravijolične (UV) svetlobe pri valovni dolžini, značilni za linearni alkilbenzensulfonatni tenzid, ki je ključna sestavina detergenta.
Če predpostavimo, da je med količino linearnega alkilbenzensulfonatnega tenzida in količino mešanice detergenta fiksno linearno razmerje ter če uporabimo krivuljo koncentracije v primerjavi z vpojnostjo, ki je pripravljena kot del tega postopka, se vrednosti vpojnosti nato pretvorijo v koncentracije detergenta, ki skupaj s podatki o masi preskusne raztopine zagotavlja podatke o količinah detergenta. Ta predpostavka se uporabi, ker v okviru preskusa ni mogoče določiti natančne količine vpletenega linearnega alkilbenzensulfonatnega tenzida, niti na koncentracijskih krivuljah, ampak zgolj količino uporabljenega detergenta.
Na tkaninah to linearno razmerje ni podano, vendar se kljub temu uporablja za izražanje količine linearnega alkilbenzensulfonatnega tenzida, ugotovljene z meritvami vpijanja UV-svetlobe, na podlagi količine detergenta.
Če uporabimo krivuljo koncentracije v primerjavi z vpojnostjo, ki je pripravljena kot del tega postopka, se vrednosti vpojnosti nato pretvorijo v koncentracije detergenta, ki skupaj s podatki o masi preskusne raztopine zagotavlja podatke o količinah detergenta.
