Title: 2026 Textile Industry New Regulation 3nh CR9 Spectrophotometer Perfectly Meets T/CFCAT Textile Color Measurement Standards
Guangzhou, Zengcheng, China, 18th Mar 2026, - In 2026, the textile industry will usher in a major update! The highly anticipated T/CFCAT "Specification for Digital Acquisition and Color Measurement of Textiles" has recently been officially implemented. The new standard sets new requirements for core parameters such as the spectral range, geometric conditions, and color difference formula for textile color measurement. New Standard Interpretation: Textile Color Measurement Enters the "ΔE00 Era"According to the latest regulations, color measurement in the textile industry will be more rigorous in the future, with the following key mandatory indicators:1. The color difference formula must be set to "New".The regulations specify that clauses 5.2.4.2 and 5.2.4.3 of the document clearly state that the instrument should support multiple color difference formulas and recommends prioritizing the use of CIEDE2000 (ΔE 00) for color difference calculation. In specific situations, the CMC (l:c) color difference formula can be selected for comparison according to GB/T 21898. Analysis: While the previously commonly used ΔE*ab formula is intuitive, it deviates from human visual perception in certain color gamuts. CIEDE2000 is currently the most advanced color difference formula, providing a more "human-like" reflection of the color differences you perceive.2. The geometric conditions and light source must be "standard".The specification states that document 5.2.4.1 recommends a default setting of D65 light source/10° observer. Meanwhile, document 5.2.2 indicates that the d/8 diffuse integrating sphere geometry is suitable for color measurement of most textile materials. Analysis: D65 simulates average daylight and is the "standard light" for color matching in the te...
