Table IX summarizes the results of a number of trials in which a durable press, fabric stabilization finish was applied to polyester cotton fabrics of various weights. The major conclusion to be drawn from this work is that while productivity (range speed) was significantly improved by switching to foam finishing, energy savings were less than predicted on the basis of a 54% reduction in amount of water applied to the fabric,...

Cellulosics have certain deficiencies in properties that require finishing to improve these properties and maximize consumer usage and acceptance. The most important cellulosic finishes include crease resistant and stabilizing finishes, soil release and softening finishes (in conjunction with crease resistant finishes), oil and water repellant finishes, biologically protective finishes, and flame retardant finishes.

Fig. 1. An amplified outline scheme of the making of various wiaes, alternative products, by-products, and associated wastes (23). Ovals = raw materials, sources rectangles = wines hexagon = alternative products (decreasing wine yield) diamond = wastes. To avoid some complexities, eg, all the wine vinegar and all carbonic maceration are indicated as red. This is usual, but not necessarily tme. Similarly, malolactic fermentation is desired in some white wines. FW = finished wine and always involves clarification and stabilization, as in 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 33, 34, followed by 39, 41, 42. It may or may not include maturation (38) or botde age (40), as indicated for usual styles. Stillage and lees may be treated to recover potassium bitartrate as a by-product. Pomace may also yield red pigment, seed oil, seed tannin, and wine spidts as by-products. Sweet wines are the result of either arresting fermentation at an incomplete stage (by fortification, refrigeration, or other means of yeast inactivation) or addition of juice or concentrate.

Finishing. AH acetal resins contain various stabilizers introduced by the suppHer in a finishing extmsion (compounding) step. The particular stabilizers used and the exact method of their incorporation are generally not revealed. Thermal oxidative and photooxidative stabilizers have already been mentioned. These must be carefully chosen and tested so that they do not aggravate more degradation (eg, by acidolysis) than they mitigate. 

The air jet textured yam process is based on overfeeding a yam into a turbulent air jet so that the excess length forms into loops that are trapped in the yam stmcture. The air flow is unheated, turbulent, and asymmetrically impinges the yam. The process includes a heat stabilization zone. Key process variables include texturing speed, air pressure, percentage overfeed, filament linear density, air flow, spin finish, and fiber modulus (100). The loops create visual and tactile aesthetics similar to false twist textured and staple spun yams. 

FWWMR Finish. The abbreviation for fire, water, weather, and mildew resistance, FWWMR, has been used to describe treatment with a chlorinated organic metal oxide. Plasticizers, coloring pigments, fiUers, stabilizers, or fungicides usuaUy are added. However, hand, drape, flexibUity, and color of the fabric are more affected by this type of finish than by other flame retardants. Add-ons of up to 60% are required in many cases to obtain... 

Raw Materials. PVC is inherently a hard and brittle material and very sensitive to heat it thus must be modified with a variety of plasticizers, stabilizers, and other processing aids to form heat-stable flexible or semiflexible products or with lesser amounts of these processing aids for the manufacture of rigid products (see Vinyl polymers, vinyl chloride polymers). Plasticizer levels used to produce the desired softness and flexibihty in a finished product vary between 25 parts per hundred (pph) parts of PVC for flooring products to about 80—100 pph for apparel products (245). Numerous plasticizers (qv) are commercially available for PVC, although dioctyl phthalate (DOP) is by far the most widely used in industrial appHcations due to its excellent properties and low cost. For example, phosphates provide improved flame resistance, adipate esters enhance low temperature flexibihty, polymeric plasticizers such as glycol adipates and azelates improve the migration resistance, and phthalate esters provide compatibiUty and flexibihty (245). 

MiscelUneous. Mahc acid is used in pharmaceuticals (qv), cosmetics (qv), dentifrices (qv), metal cleaning, electroless plating (46), wash-and-wear textile finishing (47—49), for stabilization of heat-sensitive copying paper (50), as an inhibitor of gelation, livering, and agglomeration in cellulose nitrate Hqueurs, and in many other appHcations. 

Defoamers. Foam is a common problem in papermaking systems (27). It is caused by surface-active agents which are present in the pulp slurry or in the chemical additives. In addition, partially hydrophobic soHd materials can function as foam stabilizers. Foam can exist as surface foam or as a combination of surface foam and entrained air bubbles. Surface foam usually can be removed by water or steam showers and causes few problems. Entrained air bubbles, however, can slow drainage of the stock and hence reduce machine speed. Another serious effect is the formation of translucent circular spots in the finished sheet caused by permanently entrained air. 

Copper-based thermal stabilizers are also effective photostabilizers for nylon. They can be added before polymerization, or the soluble salts (eg, CuSO can be appHed to fibers as part of the finish or to fabrics as post-treatments. The effectiveness of the copper salt—alkah haUde system added to prepolymer in retarding phototendering and photoyeUowing of the resulting spun yam is illustrated in Figure 5. 

A major use for 2,4-di-/ f2 -amylphenol is in the production of uv stabilizers the principal one is a benzotriazole-based uv absorber, 2-(2 -hydroxy-3, 5 -di-/ f2 -amylphenyl)-5-chlorobenzotriazole [25973-55-17, which is widely used in polyolefin films, outdoor furniture, and clear coat automotive finishes (56). Another significant use for 2,4-di-/ f2 -amylphenol is in the photographic iadustry. A number of phenoxyacetic acid derivatives of... 

The growth rate for 2,4-di-/ f2 -amylphenol is predicted to be above GNP growth rate, mainly driven by the use of the benzotriazole derivative as a uv stabilizer for clear-coat appHcations in auto finishes (see Table 3). 

The knitted fabric is subjected to a finishing operation in which a suitable backing material is appHed to penetrate the yam contact points and stabilize the stmcture. This process is usually accompanied by a heat treatment which stabilizes the fabric and conditions the pile. 

CPA. Copolymer alloy membranes (CPAs) are made by alloying high molecular weight polymeries, plasticizers, special stabilizers, biocides, and antioxidants with poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC). The membrane is typically reinforced with polyester and comes in finished thicknesses of 0.75—1.5 mm and widths of 1.5—1.8 m. The primary installation method is mechanically fastened, but some fully adhered systems are also possible. The CPA membranes can exhibit long-term flexibiHty by alleviating migration of the polymeric plasticizers, and are chemically resistant and compatible with many oils and greases, animal fats, asphalt, and coal-tar pitch. The physical characteristics of a CPA membrane have been described (15).
