Are levels of UV degradation higher with more UVA or UVB?
I am trying to fade the dye in fabrics with common UV lights, like that of tanning bed bulbs. There are options with amounts of both UVA and UVB. I am after a result with the highest degradation. Is UV degradation and Phototendering to dyes mainly from UVA or UVB? Would the level of degradation be higher faster with more UVA or UVB? Not really talking about what would be 'dagerous', besides UVB creates cancer so I would have thought that much more dangerous then UVA...

U.V can be separated according to its energy level and wavelength with UVa having the lowest energy and longest wavelength followed by UVb and ultimately UVc which has the shortest wavelength and highest energy level. You may be familiar with UVa and UVb as the part of the suns rays which cause tanning, aging, and skin cancer. The Sun also emits UVc the most powerful and dangerous type of U.V., fortunately for us most of this is stopped in the upper atmosphere by gasses like ozone.
