Market demand for water repellent

What fabric manufacturers need most: C6 water-repellent, oil-repellent and stain-repellent agent can impart excellent water-repellent, oil-repellent and stain-repellent properties to various fabrics such as natural fibers, synthetic fibers and blended fabrics, and is especially suitable for the hydrophobicity and repellency of polyester and blended fabrics. Oil, anti-fouling treatment; resistant to washing more than 50 times, will not affect the style of the fabric and the processing feels soft. Fully meet the needs of special industrial clothing, tents, bags and other special waterproof fields with washable requirements; for export to Europe and the United States, it must also meet export standards, and does not contain APEO, PFOA, PFOS and other prohibited substances.

The concept of water and oil repellency is emerging in clothing, textiles, home textiles and sensitive technical textiles. The addition of stain-resistant properties to fabrics through finishing, especially cotton and its blends, has grown tremendously over the past few years.

Due to changes in lifestyle, increasing consumer awareness and high-end demand, the demand for waterproof and oil-proof textiles is growing, especially in the field of tooling, where waterproof and oil-proof functions are becoming more and more important.

1. The necessity of waterproof, oil-proof and anti-fouling

      Textiles made of synthetic fibers such as polyester have strong hydrophobicity and are prone to static electricity. They are easy to deposit dirt in daily use, and oily dirt will also firmly adhere to the fabric, making it difficult to remove and wash the dirt. Therefore, it is very important to make the fabric have durable waterproof and oil-proof performance and anti-static ability in daily life and some special industries.

2. The principle of waterproof, oil-proof and anti-fouling

      At present, the mainstream of the waterproof and oil-proof market of textiles is C8 and C6 fluorocarbon products. The waterproof performance of such waterproofing agents mainly depends on the length of its carbon chain (that is, the content of fluoride). The more fluorine, the longer the carbon chain, the longer the carbon chain, the stronger the stability between molecules; the stronger the stability, the stronger the ability to resist external water and oil stains
