GB/T 19981.1-2005 Textiles—Professional care,drycleaning and wetcleaning of fabrics and garments—Part 1:Assessment of performance after drycleaning and finishing
This Part of GB/T 19981 specifies a method for assessing the performance of fabrics and garments after drycleaning and finishing according to procedures specified in GB/T 19981.
This Part is applicable to the identification of fabric and garment properties which may change on drycleaning and finishing. The current standards for assessing such changes are provided in this Part; other properties which are also important, but for which there are no standards which provide methods of assessment, are indicated in Appendix A, together with advice on how to proceed on their assessment. It is recommended that comments on these should be included in the test report (see Chapter 8 and Appendix B). For the assessment of dimensional change, this method refers to primary drycleaning and finishing; if the progressive variation is required, this method will be repeated as specified, usually not more than 5 times.

3 Terms and Definition
For the purposes of this Part of GB/T 19981, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
Composite test specimen
Test specimen consisting of all component parts used in the finished item, and combined in a representative assembly
3.2
Dry-cleanability
Extent to which an article may be cleaned by means of immersion with agitation in organic solvents commonly used for the purpose
Note 1: This process consists of cleaning, centrifugal extraction, drying and finishing to restore shape and appearance.
4 Principle
At least two identical test specimens are obtained. The first test specimen is used as a control to indicate the original condition, and does not undergo any drycleaning and finishing treatment. The second test specimen is subjected to a drycleaning process using commercial equipment involving a two-bath cleaning, rinsing, centrifugal extraction, tumble drying and appropriate finishing. An assessment of dimensional, color and other changes is carried out after cleaning and finishing by comparing the second test specimen with the first test specimen. The assessment determines whether or not the item is regarded as dry-cleanable in the process selected.
If a retest in a more sensitive process is necessary, a third test specimen is required.
