Full title and description
ISO 105‑X05:1994 — Textiles — Tests for colour fastness — Part X05: Colour fastness to organic solvents. Specifies a standardized laboratory method to determine how resistant textile colours are to exposure to organic solvents; intended for assessment of colour change and staining when textiles are exposed to solvent action (excluding dry‑cleaning, for which ISO 105‑D01 applies).
Abstract
This part of ISO 105 describes a procedure to evaluate the resistance of dyes and coloured textile products of all types and forms to organic solvents. The method defines specimen preparation, exposure to specified organic solvents and evaluation criteria for colour change and staining to adjacent fabrics or reference materials. If the question is dry cleaning, the method in ISO 105‑D01:1993 should be used instead.

Scope
Provides a laboratory test method for determining the resistance of the colour of textiles (all fibres and product forms) to organic solvents. The scope covers the controlled exposure of test specimens to specified organic solvents and subsequent evaluation of any colour change of the specimen and staining of adjacent fabrics or reference materials. The standard does not replace specific dry‑cleaning test methods; for dry cleaning applications ISO 105‑D01:1993 is referenced.
Key topics and requirements
- Definition of test specimens and conditioning prior to testing.
- Selection and specification of organic solvent(s) for exposure.
- Controlled exposure procedure (time, contact method and conditions).
- Evaluation criteria for colour change and staining of adjacent fabrics or references.
- Reporting requirements: test conditions, solvents used, observations and assessment results.
Typical use and users
Used by textile testing laboratories, quality control departments in textile and garment manufacturing, dye and pigment producers, textile research institutions, certification bodies and product development teams to verify resistance of colours to solvent exposure and to support product specifications and acceptance criteria.

The standard is part of the broader ISO 105 family of colour‑fastness test methods.

FAQ
Q: What is this standard?
A: ISO 105‑X05:1994 is an International Standard giving a test method to assess colour fastness of textiles specifically to organic solvents.
Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers specimen preparation, exposure to specified organic solvent(s), and procedures to evaluate colour change and staining after solvent exposure. It excludes dry‑cleaning tests (ISO 105‑D01 is referenced for that application).
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Textile test laboratories, manufacturers, dye suppliers, product developers, and certification or compliance organizations use the standard for quality checks and to establish acceptance criteria for solvent resistance of coloured textiles.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
A: ISO 105‑X05:1994 is the 4th edition published in 1994. Earlier editions (for example 1987) were withdrawn and replaced by the 1994 edition. The 1994 edition has been subject to ISO periodic review and remains the published version of this part of ISO 105.
Q: Is it part of a series?
A: Yes — it is one part of the ISO 105 series (Tests for colour fastness), which contains many parts addressing different agents and conditions (water, light, rubbing, washing, dry‑cleaning, alkali, mercerizing, solvents, etc.).
Q: What are the key keywords?
A: Colour fastness; organic solvents; textile test; dye fastness; ISO 105; solvent resistance; staining; colour change.
