AATCC 88B-2018 is intended to determine the smoothness appearance of seams in fabrics after being subjected to home laundering procedures. Severalwashing and drying procedures provide standard parameters to represent common home care options. Seams in any washable fabric (woven, knitted, or nonwoven) may be evaluated for smoothness using this method. Techniques for seaming are not outlined, since the purpose is to evaluate seams as they will be supplied from manufacturing or as ready for use. Furthermore, seaming techniques would be controlled by fabric properties.
