Composition in the form of an aqueous dispersion and process for the

An aqueous textile treatment agent is based on 1,3-dialkyl-4,5-dihydroxy-imidazolidinones and selected polyhydric alcohols, in particular 1,6-hexanediol or 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)-ethane and is used for the formaldehyde-free finishing of textile material which consists at least partly of cellulose or regenerated cellulose fibers in order to confer crease and shrink resistance thereon, the textile material so treated being notable for appreciably improved whiteness, compared with the prior art, as well as good crease and shrink resistance.

Aqueous textile treatment agent and crease resist finishing of textile

An aqueous textile treatment agent is based on 1,3-dialkyl-4,5-dihydroxy-imidazolidinones and 1,1,1-trimethylolpropane (TMP) and is used for the formaldehyde-free finishing of textile material which consists at least partly of cellulose or regenerated cellulose fibers in order to confer crease and shrink resistance thereon, the textile material so treated being notable for appreciably improved whiteness, compared with the prior art, as well as good crease and shrink resistance.
