textile
Novel technology for protective apparel
Technical advantages
Processing on common finishing
lines.
Suitable for cotton and selected
natural and regenerated cellulosic
fibres as well as blends with
synthetics.
Very low impact on fabric strength
allowing wider range of fabric
selection and end-uses.
Safer processing due to absence of
formaldehyde emissions.
No oily deposit formation in stenter
compartments, as easily removable
deposits are formed.
No bad smell formation as
observed with established reactive
phosphonate chemistry.
