Abstract

See full text

Shrink-resistance is provided in a wool textile by applying ionizing radiation and a polymer resin (or mixture of resins) selected such that the resin will be bonded onto the wool fibres and form a relatively thin application, the process being carried out substantially at ambient temperature. The radiation step may be a preliminary step followed by the fixing of polymer resin or polymer resin mixture onto the wool in the absence of catalysts or alternatively the polymer resin may be applied before the radiation process. The polymer resin may be just one resin selected from a group of known resins having a shrink-resistant effect on wool textiles when fixed thereto by prior art techniques, or a mixture of such known resins may be used.
