Abstract

In this paper, we present the results of an experimental study of the influence of washing treatments of jeans on its colour. It provides a systematic analysis of the changes in colour between two textile substrates: treated and untreated jeans dyed fabrics. The changes of the colour as a result of the washing treatments of the jean fabric were analyzed using the colour strength “K/S†and the colorimetric coordinates (L*, a*, b*) associated with these various treatments. The work also offers a useful modeling to study the influence of different types and parameters of washing treatments on colour changes and colorimetric coordinates, which is important to the textile industry.
