AATCC 193-2007

1. Purpose and Scope

1.1 This test method can be used to determine the efficacy of a protective finish that is capable of imparting a low energy surface on all types of fabrics, by evaluating the fabrics resistance to wetting by a selected series of water/alcohol solutions of different surface tensions.

2. Principle

2.1 Drops of standard test liquids, consisting of a selected series of water/alcohol solutions with varying surface tensions, are placed on the fabric surface and observed for wetting, wicking and contact angle.
