Full title and description

ISO 105‑G02:1993/Cor 2:2009 — Textiles — Tests for colour fastness — Part G02: Colour fastness to burnt‑gas fumes (Technical Corrigendum 2). This document is a one‑page technical corrigendum published in September 2009 that amends and corrects aspects of the ISO 105‑G02:1993 test method for assessing colour change of textiles after exposure to combustion‑derived nitrogen oxides (burnt‑gas fumes).

Abstract

The ISO 105‑G02 test method specifies a procedure to determine the resistance of textile colours (all forms except loose fibres) to exposure to atmospheric oxides of nitrogen produced by combustion of chemically pure butane. Change in colour is assessed by comparison with a grey scale; the corrigendum corrects technical/wording errors in the published 1993 text to ensure accurate application of the method.

General information

• Status: Published (Technical Corrigendum 2 to ISO 105‑G02:1993).
• Publication date: 9 September 2009 (Corrigendum 2, Edition 2).
• Publisher: International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
• ICS / categories: 59.080.01 (Textiles in general).
• Edition / version: Corrigendum 2 (Edition 2, applies to ISO 105‑G02:1993).
• Number of pages: 1 (corrigendum document).

Scope

Applies as a technical correction to ISO 105‑G02:1993. The underlying standard provides a laboratory method for exposing dyed textile specimens to oxides of nitrogen generated from the controlled combustion of chemically pure butane, and for assessing resultant colour change using a grey scale. The corrigendum updates or corrects specific technical points, clarifications or typographical errors in the 1993 edition so that test results are reproducible and consistent with the original intent of the procedure.

Key topics and requirements

• Test objective: measure resistance of textile colour to burnt‑gas fumes (nitrogen oxides from butane combustion).
• Specimen applicability: textiles of all kinds and in all forms, except loose fibres.
• Exposure medium: controlled combustion of chemically pure butane to produce atmospheric oxides of nitrogen for specimen exposure.
• Assessment method: visual comparison of colour change using the grey scale for change of colour (standard grey scale procedure).
• Corrigendum content: technical corrections and clarifications to the 1993 text to remove ambiguities and ensure correct application of the test.

Typical use and users

Used by textile testing laboratories, dye and textile manufacturers, quality assurance and product specification teams, independent conformity assessment bodies, and standards committees. Typical applications include product development, quality control, conformity testing against customer or regulatory requirements, and comparative performance evaluation of dyes and finishes.

Related standards

This document is part of the ISO 105 series (Tests for colour fastness) and specifically amends ISO 105‑G02:1993. Other parts of ISO 105 address different colour‑fastness agents and assessment methods; national and regional adoptions/identical standards (for example BS/EN adoptions) also exist for parts of ISO 105. The 1993 edition has earlier and later corrigenda (Corr.1:1995 and Corr.2:2009).

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: This specific document is ISO 105‑G02:1993/Cor 2:2009 — a one‑page technical corrigendum published in September 2009 that corrects or clarifies parts of the ISO 105‑G02:1993 test method for colour fastness to burnt‑gas fumes.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers technical corrections to the original ISO 105‑G02:1993 method, which describes how to expose textile specimens to oxides of nitrogen (from chemically pure butane combustion) and how to rate colour change using the grey scale. The corrigendum itself is intended to be read alongside and applied to the 1993 edition.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Textile and dye manufacturers, independent and in‑house textile testing laboratories, quality/control engineers, specification writers, and conformity assessment organizations that perform or reference colour‑fastness testing.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: According to ISO records, the 1993 edition of ISO 105‑G02 (including its corrigenda such as Cor 1:1995 and Cor 2:2009) has been maintained in the ISO database and was last subject to routine confirmation/review actions; the corrigendum document remains published and applies to the 1993 edition. Users should consult their national body or ISO catalogue entry for the latest confirmation/withdrawal status before relying on the standard for regulatory or contractual purposes.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — ISO 105 is a multi‑part series covering tests for colour fastness of textiles. ISO 105‑G02 is one part (G02) addressing burnt‑gas fumes; other parts address light, washing, rubbing, perspiration, and many other influences on colour fastness. Corrigenda and amendments for individual parts are published as needed.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: colour fastness; burnt‑gas fumes; butane combustion; nitrogen oxides; textile testing; grey scale; ISO 105; corrigendum.
