Fabrics exposed to sunlight, humidity, and heat are prone to fading and loss of tensile strength, especially in outdoor and high-humidity environments. This affects a wide range of applications, from clothing and carpets to medical textiles, automotive interiors, and outdoor products like tents, backpacks, sunshades, and lifting straps. Ensuring material durability under these conditions is essential for maintaining long-term performance.
Dyed and colored textiles are susceptible to fading or discoloration when exposed to a combination of heat, light (including UV and visible light), and humidity. Additionally, both natural and synthetic polymers can lose mechanical strength under these conditions. Proper testing is essential to assess the stability and durability of textiles in real-world environments.
