Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
When in use, textiles are usually exposed to light. Light tends to destroy colouring matters and the result is the well-known defect of "fading," whereby coloured textiles change colour, usually becoming paler and duller. Dyes used in the textile industry vary ... in their resistance to light, and it is obvious that there must be some method of measuring their fastness. 4, record 3, English, - colourfastness%20to%20light

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Au cours de leur utilisation, les textiles sont habituellement exposés à la lumière. La lumière tend à détruire les matières colorantes, ce qui entraîne le défaut bien connu de «dégradation», par lequel les textiles teints changent de couleur et deviennent en général plus pâles et plus ternes. Les colorants utilisés dans l'industrie des textiles présentent des résistances à la lumière très variables et il est évident qu'il doit exister une méthode permettant de mesurer leur solidité. 3, record 3, French, - solidit%C3%A9%20%C3%A0%20la%20lumi%C3%A8re
