ICS 59 is a classification code in the International Classification for Standards (ICS) system. It covers "TEXTILE AND LEATHER TECHNOLOGY". The ICS is a hierarchical classification system used to organize international, regional, and national standards, facilitating the search and identification of standards across different fields.
There are 6943 standards classified under ICS 59 (TEXTILE AND LEATHER TECHNOLOGY). These standards are published by international and regional standardization bodies including ISO, IEC, CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI.
The International Classification for Standards (ICS) is a hierarchical classification system maintained by ISO to organize standards and related documents. It uses a three-level structure with field (2 digits), group (3 digits), and sub-group (2 digits) codes. The ICS helps users find standards by subject area and enables statistical analysis of standards development activities.

This document specifies a method for the determination of the puncture resistance by measuring the force required to push a flat-ended plunger through geosynthetics. The test is normally carried out on dry specimens conditioned in the specified atmosphere. The test is applicable to most types of geosynthetic products, but does not apply to products with apertures greater than 10 mm.

This document specifies a method for determining the total content (solvent extractable) of melamine in chemicals for the leather tanning industry.
This method requires the use of liquid chromatography (LC) with a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (MS/MS), an ultraviolet (UV) detector, or diode array detector (DAD) to identify and quantify the melamine.

This document specifies methods for the determination of seam maximum force of sewn seams when the force is applied perpendicularly to the seam. It describes the method known as the grab test.
The method defined in this document is applicable to woven textile fabrics, including fabrics which exhibit stretch characteristics imparted by the presence of an elastomeric fibre, mechanical or chemical treatment. It can be applicable to fabrics produced by other techniques. It is normally not applicable to geotextiles, nonwovens, coated fabrics, textile-glass woven fabrics and fabrics made from carbon fibres or polyolefin tape yarns.[2], [3], [4]
This method is applicable to straight seams only (obtained from previously sewn articles or prepared from fabric samples) and not to curved seams (see Annex B for considerations on seams).
The method is restricted to the use of constant-rate-of-extension (CRE) testing machines.

This document specifies test methods to measure the amount of test liquid (simulated urine) which runs down a nonwoven test specimen when a specified mass of test liquid is poured on the nonwoven test specimen superimposed on a standard absorbent medium and placed on an inclined plane.
This document is designed to compare run-off of nonwovens. It is not intended to simulate in use conditions for finished products.
The three methods are:
a) Option A - basic method for testing hydrophilic nonwovens, see Annex A.
b) Option B - repeated test, with the same test parameters as the basic method with additional information
in Option A, see Annex B.
c) Option C - modified method for testing hydrophobic nonwovens specifying another degree of incline, see Annex C.
The test method is designed to measure the repellency of hydrophobic nonwovens. At the standard inclination angle, Option A isn’t able to distinguish between different levels of hydrophobicity. By decreasing the inclination of the table, one can assess the difference in repellence of hydrophobic nonwovens.
For R&D purposes, other characteristics can be measured according to Annex D.

Test III -- the repeated test, with the same test parameters as in I);
Test III -- the modified method for testing hydrophobic nonwovens specifying another table inclination than in I).

This document specifies a test method for determining the resistance to water leakage and penetration of water-resistant clothing in an artificial rainfall using a manikin capable of marching motion. It determines the waterproof characteristic in practical use in a rainfall environment with the wearer moving. In addition to personal protective equipment and outdoor clothing, which require extreme conditions, it also applies to testing common waterproof or water-repellent products such as jackets, trousers, coats, and one- or two-piece suits. The test method described in this document uses manikin with normal adult male size, excluding other sizes (female, children).

This document specifies a method for the evaluation of a substrate's resistance to absorption of a selected series of liquid hydrocarbons of different surface tensions.
This document provides guidance to oil stain resistance. It can provide a rough index of oil stain resistance as, generally, the higher the oil repellency grade, the better resistance to staining by oily materials, especially liquid oil substances. This is particularly true when comparing various finishes for a given substrate. This document can also be used to determine if washing and/or drycleaning treatments have any adverse effect on the oil repellency characteristics of a substrate.
NOTE 1 Washing and drycleaning treatment procedures are described in ISO 6330 and ISO 3175 (all parts), respectively.
This document is not intended to give an absolute measure of the resistance of the substrate to staining by all oily materials. Other factors, such as composition and viscosity of the oily substances, substrate construction, fibre type, dyes and other finishing agents, also influence stain resistance. This document is not intended to estimate the resistance to penetration of the substrate by oil-based chemicals.
NOTE 2 For the evaluation of the resistance to penetration of the substrate by oil-based chemicals, see ISO 6530.
