Textile Whiteness Meter

The textile whiteness meter simulates sunlight to illuminate the surface of the fabric, measures the intensity of reflected light, compares it with a standard whiteboard, and calculates the blue light whiteness index. It is used to detect the effectiveness of bleaching and whitening treatments on textiles and to control the consistency of whiteness during the production process.
Selection
When selecting, focus on the measurement aperture matching the sample size and ensure it has a fluorescence whiteness detection function, with a calibration whiteboard accompanied by a traceability certificate. The instrument must comply with the GB/T 8424 standard, have a repeatability error of less than 0.5 degrees, and consider a sample stage capable of measuring both flat and thick fabrics.
