To measure sublimation fastness, these devices comprise two electric heated plates between which a dyed fabric sample is placed for a fixed period of time. When the sample is removed from the device, it is compared with a gray scale to appraise the grade of color dyeing sublimation-endurance. ]]></termNote><termCreatedDate>2026-03-30 20:53:44</termCreatedDate><relation><relationType>UF</relationType><termId>31422130</termId><termName>scorch tester</termName><termType>ND</termType></relation><relation><relationType>BT</relationType><termId>31421990</termId><termName>fabric testers</termName><termType>PT</termType></relation></term>  </Zthes>
