Abstract
American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists (AATCC) is responsible for the development and publication of textile testing standards.
AATCC test standards are developed by committees comprised of experts from various sectors of the textile industry, including researchers, scientists, academics, and industry professionals. These committees work in collaboration to establish testing methods and standards that are widely used in the textile industry.
AATCC creates and updates the standards related to various aspects of quality and performance of textiles products, including colorfastness, antibacterial, physical testing, chemical analysis, and other features of textile performance.
