Product Description
AATCC 1993 Standard Reference Detergent is a controlled powder detergent used in textile and apparel laboratories for standardised home-laundering tests. The 2 lb pack contains approximately 909 g of detergent and is suitable for laboratories that need a smaller working quantity than a full bucket or drum.
The standard AATCC 1993 Reference Detergent contains optical brightener. It is a separate product from AATCC 1993 Standard Reference Detergent WOB, which is supplied without optical brightener. The correct version must be selected according to the applicable test method.
The formula contains no phosphates, enzymes, added colours or added scents. A consistent reference formulation helps laboratories compare test results without ordinary commercial detergent changes becoming an uncontrolled variable.
This page assumes that the supplied 2 lb product is the standard version with optical brightener because the item name does not state WOB. Check the package label before publishing or ordering. If the label states WOB or Without Optical Brightener, separate product content should be used.

Product Overview
Commercial laundry detergents can vary by country, manufacturer, fragrance, enzymes, brighteners and formulation updates. A standard reference detergent gives laboratories a controlled washing material, making it easier to compare results between production sites, buyers and third-party testing facilities.
AATCC offers the powder detergent in two distinct optical-brightener options. The with-brightener version is used for appearance, dimensional-change and other procedures that specify it. The WOB version is often selected when an optical brightener could interfere with the evaluation of colour change.

Key Benefits
Consistent Laboratory Formula
The formula is controlled for reference testing. This removes many of the formulation changes and regional differences found in ordinary consumer detergents.
Supports Comparable Results
Using the same detergent across factories, buyers and laboratories reduces detergent variation in the testing process. It supports more meaningful comparison of laundering and appearance results.
Optical Brightener Included
The standard version contains optical brightener for procedures that require or permit it. A separate WOB product should be used when brightener could interfere with colour-change evaluation.
Free from Phosphates and Enzymes
The powder contains no phosphate or enzymes. It also contains no added colours or scents that could introduce unnecessary variation into a test programme.
Long Storage Potential
AATCC states that the powder has an almost indefinite shelf life when stored in a sealed container. Moisture protection is essential because exposure can cause deterioration or handling problems.
Who Should Buy This Product?
- Textile testing laboratories
- Garment factories and washing laboratories
- Buying houses and brand quality teams
- Dyeing, finishing and textile-production facilities
- Third-party inspection and certification laboratories
- Universities and textile training institutes
- Research and product-development departments
- Government and institutional textile laboratories
- Procurement teams requiring a smaller 2 lb reference-detergent pack
Usage and Handling Summary
Use the detergent only according to the current AATCC test method, laundering procedure or customer specification applicable to the product being evaluated.
- Confirm whether the method requires detergent with optical brightener or WOB detergent.
- Confirm that the laundering machine is suitable; the AATCC powder detergent is not recommended for HE machines.
- Use the detergent mass, water volume, ballast load, cycle, temperature and drying conditions specified by the test method.
- Weigh the required detergent amount using a suitable calibrated balance.
- Dissolve or dispense the powder according to the method before starting the laundering cycle.
- Do not replace the reference detergent with an ordinary commercial powder or liquid detergent.
- Avoid contaminating the pack with wet scoops, laboratory residues or other detergents.
- Close the container immediately after removing the required amount.
- Record the product type, pack or batch information and test-method version when traceability is required.
Handling Precautions
- Review the current Safety Data Sheet before use.
- Avoid breathing airborne detergent dust.
- Avoid unnecessary contact with eyes and skin.
- Use suitable workplace personal protective equipment according to the laboratory risk assessment.
- Keep the product in a dry, sealed container.
- Clean spills carefully and avoid generating additional dust.
- Keep the product away from food, drink and unauthorised users.
Limitations and Important Considerations
- This product contains optical brightener and should not be used when the method specifically requires WOB detergent.
- AATCC 1993 Standard Reference Detergent WOB is a separate formulation and is not interchangeable with this product.
- The powder is not recommended for high-efficiency washing machines because excessive foam can affect the machine and invalidate the procedure.
- The detergent does not replace the requirements of the applicable AATCC method, laundering procedure or customer specification.
- Dosage and wash conditions vary by test method and should not be guessed.
- The 2 lb pack may be a distributor-size package rather than the current large-pack size shown in the AATCC store. Confirm the label, batch and packaging before ordering.
- OEKO-TEX ECO PASSPORT and ZDHC Level 1 apply to current AATCC powder detergents; request the current certificate when documentation is required.
- Moisture exposure can affect storage quality even though the sealed product has a very long shelf life.
- Formal compliance testing should be conducted by competent personnel using the current authorised method edition.
