Abstract
A method for reducing the snagging of fabrics involves the application to the fabric of an emulsion of a chlorinated solvent as the continuous phase and as the dispersed phase, an aqueous latex of a polymer of from about 25 to 50 weight percent of a hydroxy lower alkyl acrylate, from about 6 to 12 weight percent acrylonitrile, from about 40 to 60 weight percent of a lower alkyl acrylate having from two to eight carbon atoms in the alkyl group and from about 1 to 5 weight percent acrylic acid wherein said polymer is of a high enough molecular weight to be insensitive to chlorinated solvents and water and after application and thereafter desolvating, dewatering and curing the polymer on the fabric.
