Oil repellency of textiles + hydrocarbon resistance test

We offer two technically equivalent methods (AATCC 118 & ISO 14419) for determining the oil stain resistance of textiles. More specifically, the tests are used to assess fabric's resistance to wetting by hydrocarbons.

A series of selected liquid hydrocarbons with different surface tensions are used, and the results are given as numerical values with high values indicating better oil resistance. Test results are often used to compare the oil resistance of different fabrics or surface finishes.
