Fiber finishes

Often used as mixtures, the telomers are subsequently converted to commercial surfactants and stain-resistant fiber finishes through functionalizing steps using standard chemical reactions of the C—1 bond. 

Textiles. Polyamides having improved antistatic properties utilize polyoxyalkylated hydrogenated castor od as the dispersible antistatic agent (113). A finish for bulked continuous polyamide filament yams also use polyoxyethylated castor od to enhance the fiber finish (114).

A wide variety of special durable surface treatments have been used on manufactured fibers. These include treatments for imparting such characteristics as soil resistance, antistatic behavior, and wearer comfort through moisture wicking and transport. Fiber finishes also have been used successfully in promoting adhesion between two materials, as, for example, between polyester tire cord and rubber, and between glass fiber and polyester resin. 

DOW CORNING FF-400 and DOW CORNING 193 fiber finish additives are silicone-ethylene oxide copolymers that exhibit useful characteristics in the manufacture and processing of fibers and yarns. Some of these characteristics include lubricity, heat stability and static control. 

Is a liquid water-soluble emulsifier and lubricant. It is recommended for the formulation of soluble oils, cutting fluids, and fiber finishes. 

Use Lubricants, plasticizers, paint and varnish vehicles, gelling agents, urethane intermediates, adhesives, cross-linking agents, humectants, textile fiber finishes, functional fluids, surface-active agents, dispersants and emulsifiers in foods, pharmaceuticals, cosmetic preparations. 

Fiber Finishes. The natural fibers, of which cotton and wool are most important, are endowed by nature with a finish which affords textile processibility. The cotton fiber is coated by a layer of pectin and wax which supplements the natural hygroscopicity of the fiber with a lubricant which aids in the manifold drafting operations of the textile manufacturing process. Raw wool also occurs naturally with a coating of wool grease, but this is often removed by scouring the raw stock before textile processing,... 

Textiles in contact with the skin must have a pleasant feel. Since natural fibers are harsh, textile manufacturers coat them with a finish. Before World War II, natural oils and fats were used as fiber finishes. Garments were essentially washed by hand and dried outdoors. Domestic washing was carried out with laundry soap, which, in hard water, forms insoluble lime soap that deposits on and softens fabrics.
