Abstract

In this paper cotton fabrics were treated by two different methods with polycarboxylic acids (citric acid and butanetetracarboxylic acid) for durable press performance. The first was a two‐step method in which the fabric was initially treated with citric acid and then treated by butanetetracarboxylic acid. The other was a mixed method in which the fabric was treated with a solution containing the two mixed polycarboxylic acids. Following the treatments, the wrinkle recovery angle, strength and strength retention of the resulting fabric were measured and compared.
