Abstract: For improving the durable press performance of BTCA finished cotton fabric,the reactive aminosilicon-based and polyethylene-based softeners were selected as additives to compare their effects on the performance of cotton fabric finished with BTCA.The results showed that the improvement of wrinkle recovery angle of fabric finished with BTCA/aminosilicon softener was better than that finished with BTCA/ polyethylene softener,however,its negative impact to the tensile strength of the finished fabric was a little bit bigger and also the improvement of flex abrasion resistance was less.The data also indicated that,although the softeners could improve the durable press performance of the fabric and the effect could be retained during home laundering,the resistance to hydrolysis of ester bond was not improved by the addition of the softeners.
