Abstract

The application of a fluorine-containing water and oil repellent to cotton and polyester/cotton fabrics was investigated. The influence of dosage of the water and oil repellent, curing temperature and time, and pH of application on water and oil repellencies was discussed to determine the optimized finishing process. In addition, some physical properties of finished fabrics were tested. The results showed that the two fabrics finished with the fluorine-containing water and oil repellent at a low dosage exhibited good water and oil repellencies, and the inherent quality of the fabrics had not been adversely affected.
