Description
This test material is used in assessing the resistance of the color of textiles of all kinds when exposed to atmospheric oxides of nitrogen as derived from the combustion of natural gas.
The Control Ribbon is sensitive to other atmospheric contaminants such as ozone. Its fading rate will vary considerably at different humidities and temperatures and its use in natural or end-use testing as a measure of exposure to oxides of nitrogen is not recommended. The color change produced on the control ,will reflect the combined effects of the atmospheric contaminants present, and temperature-humidity variations:, not just the effects of exposure to oxides of nitrogen.
