Wrinkle-free finishing of cellulose-based textiles

Formaldehyde-free crosslinkers for the wrinkle-free finishing of cellulose fibers

In the IGF project 18882N, crosslinkers for the wrinkle-free finishing of cellulose fibers were synthesized and successfully applied, which do not release toxic compounds such as formaldehyde or methanol. The synthesis of the crosslinkers with reactive azetidinium groups (AZ) was carried out through a simple and scalable reaction process in water. The wrinkle formation of cotton fabrics treated with the AZ crosslinkers in a dip application process was reduced compared to the untreated reference.
