Process optimization of moisture crosslinking and influence thereof on properties of textile

The key factors of moisture crosslinking of cotton fabrics were studied.The results showed that formaldehyde release,tearing strength,color change and appearance of finished textile were affected by selected the resin and auxiliaries and the technology parameters.The higher-price EP-1000 was completely replaced by the lower-price SP-E,which color change would not be affected.The optimum pH value of moisture crosslinking is about 2 to 2.5,the optimum equilibrium time is 16 to 20 hours at temperature 38-40 ℃,and real-time monitoring is performed,and all performancs of cotton fabrics were within the normal range.
