Abstract
The aim of the invention is to produce a textile surface (), one side of which exhibits hydrophilic properties and the other side hydrophobic properties, whose overall cross-section is hydrophilic. To achieve this, a paste () consisting of a viscous emulsion or dispersion of paraffin, polysiloxane and/or fluorine compounds is applied to one side. The layer that has been formed by the first paste () is then stabilized by means of a drying process () and a second paste (), consisting of a hydrophilic polymer is subsequently applied to the other side of the textile surface (), said paste being stabilized by an additional drying process (). Said steps provide a textile surface (), which can be produced simply and cost-effectively, is extremely comfortable to wear and which ensures that moisture is immediately absorbed on the hydrophilic side, dispersed over a large area and rapidly removed, whereas the hydrophobic side of said textile surface () repels water.
