The related AATCC Std is Colorfastness to Water: Chlorinated Pool;
Test Method 162-2002.

Though ISO 105 E03 and AATCC 163 are not identical.

Hello,
Generally, blues are very sensitive to chlorine. But, from the
attached image, I see lot of fading in Red. This points us towards
poor washing fastness or use of strong detergent.
In US, most laundry detergent brands clearly categorize color safe
bleaches from hypochlorite based ones.

Equivalent of ISO Method - ISO-105-E03

Dear All,

Dyes Suppliers when supplying dyes indicate the grading their dye

Dear Mr. Suresh,
I surfed and found about the US water chlorine content. Your
perception is right. From the past 6-8 months in 42 states the
supplied tap water contains 140 unregulated chemicals that lack safety
standards. You can check the US water quality database.

Further to the chlorine content, when ever we are adding OBA to our

Dear All,
I think I will take up the privilege of asking the first technical question
in this group email.
Please refer to the attached image to get a clear idea of the problem we are
facing. The blue colored article is the one which we shipped. But the top
purple colored article is the one which the consumer has, after doing a
