There are also some additives used in formulating sizes. Fatty substances, e.g., ->fatty acid esters, in combination with nonionic or anionic emulsifiers (->surfactants), and - sulfonated oils plasticize the size film, impart antistatic properties, help in foam control and improve smoothness. Fatty alcohol ethoxylates are sometimes added to increase wettability of the yam. [Pg.304]

Mercerizing is a method to improve dyeability, gloss (luster) and tensile strength of cotton by treatment with caustic. Surfactants, such as - fatty alcohol (C6-Ci2)sulfates and ether sulfates, as Avell as fatty alcohol ethoxylates (terminally blocked) and fatty amines improve wettability and foam control. [Pg.304]
