17
Q

fast or fugitive dyes

A

fast dyes: bond well within fiber so bleeding does not occur during normal care
fugitive dyes: form weak bonds with fiber so bleeding can occur

Q

frosting

A

white cast on material from being abraded

23
Q

crocking

A

color on material surface transferred to another material by surface contact and rubbing

24
Q

3 factors color depends on

A

-light source
- eye
- object

25
Q

2 types of color measurement

A
  • subjective with eye
  • objective with instrument
26
Q

XYZ represent which colors

A

X: red
Y: green
Z: blue

27
Q

L* a* b*

A

L: darkness (0) to lightness (100)
a: greenness (negative) to redness (positive)
b: blueness (negative) to yellowness (positive)

28
Q

most common device for measuring color

A

eye

29
Q

555 system

A

3 digit shade numbering system
- 1st 5: lightness-darkness
- 2nd 5: redness-greenness
- 3rd 5: yellowness-blueness
- color within 555 space matches standard

30
Q

Delta E (DE)

A

difference between standard and specimen
- consumer limit: DE 1.5
- company expectation: DE < 0.5

31
Q

color

A

sensation resulting from stimulation of eye’s retina by wavelengths of light

32
Q

color measurement

A

assigning numerical values to a color and placing it in a specific location in a three-dimensional color space

33
Q

metamerism

A

two materials look the same color under one light light source but not another

34
Q

CIE system

A

amount of standard red (X), green (Y), and blue (Z) and needed to match a color
- CIE: international commission on illumination

35
Q

tristimulus system XYZ

A

represents primary additive colors and all colors mixed from primary colors
- based on maxwell triangle

36
Q

chromaticity diagrams

A

based on understanding of how human eye sees color and color systems (Munsell)

37
Q

color mixing

A

straight line between two points

38
Q

spectrophotometer

A

measures % of light transmitted or reflected at each wavelength in visible spectrum by colored surface
